What does "YANKEES" mean?

A term and nickname created by Southerners and Confederate Civil War soldiers for a person who is from the North (Midwest/Northeast). It was especially given to Union soldiers who fought in the American Civil War, usually having to go into into The South in order to engage the enemy in combat. The Union forces invading Southern territory and also incidents where a few groups of soldiers pillaged and destroyed property and people's lives resulted in making this nickname derogatory by some.

Northerners and Midwesterners get called "Yankees" a lot by many Southerners.

YANKEES

The word is a derogatory term used to describe Americans by the Brits, Canadians, Australians and the like; but in the USA used to define an American from the Northern States in the USA, such as New England and the Mid-West.

It was most notably used to describe to the Federal Solders and other Northerners by the Confederates during the Civil War Era. Even though some foreigner’s refer to all American’s as Yankees, does not make it so. Call a Southerner a Yankee and he’ll think you’re either just plain dumb or that you are trying to pick a fight.

The characteristics often associated with a stereotypical Yankee are shrewdness, thrift, craftiness, rudeness, arrogance, and loudness.

To foreigners, a Yankee is an American.
To Americans, a Yankee is a Northerner.
To Easterners, a Yankee is a New Englander.
To New Englanders, a Yankee is a Vermonter.
And in Vermont, a Yankee is somebody who eats pie for breakfast

YANKEES

If you say that the Yankees suck, b/c of the fact that tehy can by almost whomever they want, then your retarded. Hey Boston you are a good team, just nowhere near as good as the Yankees. If you 26 more world series before the Yankees win one, then I will say that you are better, untill then stop chanting Yankees suck, its just annoying and has no fact behind it. look at statistics. don't just go on one season and one series, yes u came back from a 0-3 deficit, but what put u behind in the 1st place?

Boston Fan: ohhhhhhh we won the series we came back from a losing by 3games that must mean the yankees suck.
Yankee fan: well if u win 26 more before we win another one then u can say we suck, until then shut the F up!!!
