A saying commonly overused by people of the southern areas of the United States Of America. The saying was originated back in 1863 by a man of the name John Joseph Jingleheimer who was a slave owner. He used the phrase when 10 of his slaves were running away. He shouted at them, "Hey, y'all better get back here!" What he meant to say was, "Hey, all of you get back here!" Now this is why the Southern People of the U.S use the phrase Y'all instead of you all.

Et Y'all - the Texan, or friendlier, less Latin, aka more widely understood version of "et al". It proclaims, "Yes, I'm familiar with writing etiquette, but I'm also from Texas, and we say Y'all" This greeting is the perfect salutation to use when writing or addressing a group of people. Instead of typing out every name in that first line of an email, letter, memo, or other correspondence, one can simply name the first one, and follow it with the friendly "et y'all".
Uncle Terry et y'all,
I 'm writing to let all y'all know that I can't make it to the family reunion this year.

An absolutely savage southern US slang sarcasm of a more typical phrase from American English in general being "Are all of (or both of) you okay?" Generally when the southern slang version is used it is stipulating that whoever is being asked is not, in fact, okay.
