1531: y'all, yous, and yinz Feb 21, 2019

Even in the few forms of a second-person plural English pronoun, such as 'y'all', 'yous' and 'yinz', they pretty much all originate from combinations. While there are dozens of varieties of English, the main two sort of standard models are the Standard American and Standard British styles; neither of these have a distinction between the singular and plural forms for the second person pronoun but the other pronouns worked their ways out of this same word. 'Y'all' is just the elision of 'you all', and 'yous' comes from the '-s' form for general pluralization. 'Yinz' comes from 'you -uns'. which is shortened form of 'you ones'; originating in Ireland, it follows the same pattern as 'youngin', but gained greater popularity in Appalachia and the Midwest in the 19th century.
