Well, the early Utah settlers recruited people from all over the world, let alone the rest of the country, so it's not surprising that a variety of idioms still exist. And my grandma died over 20 years ago at the age of 92, so maybe it's not a current expression there anymore.

"Y'know" was *invented* in the San Fernando valley in Southern California. I believe you Brits have your own version, a contraction of "do you know" as well, but the rest of that "like, whatever", etc. is pure valley-speak!
