” Most of dese zigaboos is so het up over yo’ buisness till they liable to hurry theyself to Judgement to find out about you if they don’t soon know.”

The dialogue that Pheoby and Janie use is very southern, considering that they’re from the south that’s not too unusual. The way the author portrays the characters in the book, makes them seem very unintelligent and uneducated. The dialect that they use is very distinct, and it’s much different than proper english. They tend to blend a lot of the words together and in some cases make up their own words. It seems like they talk very freely and are not afraid of what comes out of their mouth.
