"Tump" and "Eye" on the stove


i taught john these two words.

"tump"

and

"eye" meaning the eye on the stove.

TUMP:
VERB:
Chiefly Southern U.S. tumped , tump·ing , tumps
VERB:
tr.
To overturn. Often used with over: You're about to tump that thing over.
ETYMOLOGY:
Probably akin to tumble


(http://education.yahoo.com/reference/dictionary/entry/tump)

My example: "I just got back from a canoe trip down the Spring River and my canoe didn't even tump over once."

EYE:
6. Something suggestive of the vertebrate organ of vision, especially:
a. An opening in a needle.
b. The aperture of a camera.
c. A loop, as of metal, rope, or thread.
d. A circular marking on a peacock's feather.
e. Chiefly Southern U.S. The round flat cover over the hole on the top of a wood-burning stove. Also called regionally cap1, griddle.

You go girl! Turn that Yankee into a Southern! Would you like me to see if I can find a southern dictionary to send him that has words like
"fixin'"(....that's the only one that comes to mind right now but I know that there are a whole lot more!) ? OH, Daddy thought of "ya'll" and "gonna"....
As in we're gonna leave for St. Louis after early church today to see the same doctor to see if he will clear daddy to at least drive and give him a letter to send to the FAA saying that everything is ok.

P. S. Thanks for the reminder about the Spring River...That was NOT fun tumping over with Joe(y) at all!!!

That's great! We've been collecting southern-isms since we've been here in Memphis. I think my favorite so far is: running like a scalded ape.

Do they really have southern dictionaries?
