Yup

In my youth growing up in Southern Ohio, I could throw a rock and hit Kentucky. Most all of my "kinfolk" were from the mountains of West Virginia and Kentucky. Anyways there was a dialect I rarely hear anymore some of which has been mentioned. Here's a few.

Worsh - wash

Crick - creek

Yonder - over there

Again - up against something

Holler - draw between two hills

Sanrich ? - sandwich

Ett - ate

Pop - soda 

Mangos - bell peppers

Just a few that come to mind.
