Re: Words we used to use.....
If my grandma corrected you, you knew it! She believed that God designed a kid with a correction spot right on their seat.
But correction by my mom was twice as bad even tho she never, ever spanked any of us. Ok, I take that back, she spanked me twice in my entire life. But she could lecture better than anyone you've ever known. And by the time she was done, you felt about as big as an ant. You were begging her to forgive you because you knew how wrong you had been and what it was that you had done that was soooooo wrong that it broke her heart!

I really was a tender hearted child, but I go into trouble so much. My Mama would "tear you up" as the saying goes, though.
Our Pastor didn't lecture you, but he was so humble and loving you just didn't want him to have to correct you.

Re: Words we used to use.....
I've heard old timers when they're aggravated say "I'll swanee". Doesn't make sense to me, but that was a favorite expression of my parents and grandparents.

It was instead of "I swear" which was considered swearing and a sin.

Re: Words we used to use.....
My Mama also did not allow "by words". Words that replaced swear words.
