hi
i have some problem with urban words, what's the meaning of "yonder hit" in the following dialogue.

he said: "I want me some water,"
"yonder hit" he said and pointed with the sandwich to the well.

thanks

The writer is writing in a way that suggests these people speak an uneducated dialect. ' Yonder hit' probably means 'Yonder it (is)'. ie the water is over there.
