I'm sorry to disappoint those who responded who were educated at better establishments than I was but I always thought the English language was a constantly evolving language. If you keep saying it, chances are others will. If it takes off, it will make the dictionary and you'll be ok to use it.
Thankfully I wasn't brung up like most, I was dragged up!

Sorry - requests for definitions and spellings [of words] are no longer being accepted. Please go to amazon.com and purchase a dictionary.

You are mistaken, which is my way gentle of saying you are wrong.
Note to She She: << I am seeing that it actually is a word.. A past tense and a past participle of bring. Also ghetto for brought. >>

Note to Ammie: << The online Oxford English Dictionary lists it as the past tense and past participle of 'bring' but it is noted as 'dialect' so clearly not common usage. >>
Whether [it] does or does not, that that dictionary includes an improper word does not make it a proper word. You're wrong to quote it, and they're wrong to include it.

would seem so but rarely used.
In some dialects the past tense of “bring” is “brang” and “brung” is the past participle; but in standard English both are “brought.”

Nope! It's illegitimate! And so is 'legitamate'! The only three legitimate words in your sentence are:- 'is' 'a' and 'word'.

No, it's dialect or slang. "Legitamate" isn't strictly legitimate either...

Hell no. The word you are searching for is "brought."
