They just say this:

I am fin store.

And I even heard just this:

Fin store.

Now THATS some contractionating


I'll say. I've lived in the South all my life and never heard those.
Southern dialects may sound quaint but they at least have an internal
grammatical consistency. Those don't even make sense.

Well...they "sorta" make sense...

The only place Ive heard it is in southwest georgia...

And I must admit the first few times I did I had NO idea what the heck those
folks were talking about....and the funny part is most of the other sentences
they uttered were fairly consistent and understandable....but then they would
plop a "fin sentence" in and all of sudden it was like they spoke Zulu or
something....

And as an aside, the worst (best?) accents I've ever heard was from a group of
Georgia cheerleaders....their grammar was fine, but the accent was so thick you
almost couldnt understand what they were saying...and I live/grew up in the
south!

take care

Blll
