>your-all's (from my native 'you-all')
>y'aller (/-r=/ from 'your', including the 'your'/'you're' homophony)
>y'allser (transposition of 'your-all's'?)
>y'all's
In my dialect:
_y'all's_ [jalz] -> 2pl posessive.
e.g. "Y'all's name is what?", "Is that car y'all's?"
_y'all're_ [jal.l@r\`] -> a contaction of _y'all are_.
e.g. "Y'all're going where?"
