"Yes, Miss helen; but he asked if you were in the house, and he comed in almost afore I'd time to answear yes."
What does "he comed in" mean in this sentence?
It's W. Collins "A mad marriage"
It means "he came in" in some dialect or another.
I knew it Deborah but it raises the question can I be that cool too and say something like he taked that thing, he had blowed up with the brig etc
I wouldn't recommend it. You'd sound uneducated at best, in my opinion.
That type of speech isn't regarded as "cool" in America. It's a stigmatized and weakening speech pattern.
David I bet I would be understood. I will try to sound that "uneducated" next time I get drunk ( drinkT).
At least here, "I comed in" clearly does not sound like what a native speaker would say, whatever image they are attempting to project; I know of no dialect around here in the US where "comed" is used at all in the place of "came". It definitely sounds like a non-native-speaker-type error, and not a mistake made by a native speaker.
"combed" or "came", not "comed"
Uhu Collins wrote exactly comed in.
Not only does it sound like a non-native error, but it sounds nasty as well.
Okay so it's that part of a sexual act then.
Does it make you crinkle when you hear comed in? lol
take it easy taked, blowed, keeped yawn
I don't know about the "he comed in" part but I thought "afore" was part of the Appalachian dialect.
I've never heard "comed" but I have heard "knowed".
It ain't no use in turnin' on you light, babe
A light I never knowed
It ain't no use in turnin' on your light, babe
I'm on the dark side of the road
Still I wish there were something you would do or say
To try and make me change my mind and stay
We never did too much talkin' anyway
So don't think twice, it's alright.

The only time you'll ever hear "comed" or "cummed" is when it's used as vulgar slang for "ejaculated" (Note: you'll also sometimes hear "came" in this instance as well, but the issue at hand here was "comed"). Keep in mind this is very vulgar slang and should be used with caution.
