Here in PA, people commonly use the words "redd up" or "redding up" to
mean cleaning up the mess and organizing things.

A friend of mine wonders if this is "Pennsylvania Dutch" but my
dictionary says it has been an English term since before the Battle of
Hastings.

Would you guys who live up and down the Appalachians let me know if you
hear it where you live? If it's common outside Pennsylvania, then it's
not "Pa Dutch."

Thanks. vince
