    Today's word from the Kentucky Dictionary of Country Vernacular is heel.

    Now, don't goes confusing dis wit da part of the foot below da ankle cause dat ain't what dis heel means.

    I'll gives hit to ya da way da old pig farmer gave hit ta us whilst we was bicycling in Gallatin County, Kentucky today: "Ya'lls crazy cause hits all up heel from here!"

    So, the definition of heel in this case is:
    a landform that extends above the surrounding terrain. It often has a distinct summit.:rofl: :lol::rofl: :lol::rofl: :lol:

    I’m pretty sure somewhere else it means where the devil lives aka “You can go straight to heel”

    Then there’s the male derivative: “heel fix your car for you”
