Language: gitchya

No, not as in "I'm gonna gitchya." I like the Texasism I just heard, "Gitchya some water." No, not as in "(I'm going to) gitchya some water." A proper East Texas native will say this as shorthand for "(Y'all are going to) git (yourself) some water." (And remember, "y'all" is singular in Texas, where you'll often hear "All y'all" to denote the plural.)
