As a child of Appalachia, I suggest that we all compromise on you'ens, or as it's commonly pronounced yinz.

Half my family says yinz, half my family says you’uns. They’re both correct as far as I’m concerned.

Since it's short for "you ones", I suppose it would technically be "you'nes", which of course looks insane and nobody would ever write it that way. I've also seen it written with an apostrophe ("y'inz") which is funny to me - it acknowledges the contraction, but with everything completely misplaced.

(and yes, I am from western PA)
