<br>
<br>   This is the same construction I wrote about a few days ago, when I said
<br>   that I heard "want for/try for/plan for" etc. from a white classmate
<br>   who had lived as a child in South Carolina. I don't recall whether she
<br>   used it with an infinitive only or with a gerund as well--only the
<br>   former sticks in my memory.
<br>
<br>I can clearly hear "I mo try for goin to work now" as well as "I mo try for
<br>go to work now." But then, I clearly hear sounds coming from Hale-Bopp,
<br>too.
