is just wrong.

i know this belongs in pedants but its just making me mad. I have noticed more and more on the programs i watch, such as Marv on the voice, Towie, and other southern based programs that when the person is talking to others that they say

yous instead of you, such as what do yous think. not what do you think.

its making me more than a little crazy aibu?

I say yous. I'm from the Isle of Man, but I've only really started saying it since I moved to the London/Essex border area. Everyone seems to say it here Smile I think it's quite useful.

Manx OH also uses "seen this". I used to think it was bad grammar, then realised it was just different grammar.
