Since everyone seem pretty rightly upset about the "y'all'd've'ff've" I instead present to you another Southernism that makes more sense and is actually in active use.

Y'all'd'n't've

"Y'all'd'n't've done that if'n ya knew what the consequences were gonna be."

I live in Texas, and it's really annoying when someone says "y'all'd've" when they really mean "y'all'd've'ff've". Smh like, learn some grammar people.

We didn't buy it, we couldn't afford it

Y'all'd've'ff've taken that job I offered y'all.

That's some chatGPT nonsense. The first one was right, but nobody throws fs into that shit for any reason outside of this post.
