Here's a few things you'll probably need to know.
This is my crash course in plain southern English that may help you. Even if you get the words right, if your accent ain't right and don't git it, you're still not going to pull it off very well even if you get the words right. But you're going to need to know what the local people are trying to tell you so...
Holler
1. Yell louder
2. A valley
Far
1. A long way away
2. The thing that you were sent there to put out.
Bless your heart
This phrase is pretty universal. It could mean a lot of different things depending on how the person says it.
It could be meant as an upmost and sincere compliment, or it could be a polite way of looking you in the eye and telling you that you're stupid
Don't ask for a soda or a soft drink if you go out to eat or order food. Ask for a coke. No one says soft drinks or soda here.
If I think of other things that could help make this transition a little easier for you, I'll add more.
