.....in particular South Yorkshire.
Talking to my guests over dinner last night, and we got on the subject of regional accents, and sayings e.g....
"Frame thee sen and cap folk"
"Ee aye top n ar coyl oyl"
"Tha goes darn eer and tha turns darn quick"
"Nay cocker ar lass is painting t'roof o t' house"....
......all said to me or in the presence of me.

Frame thee sen and cap folk - Pull yourself together and you can get the better of everyone else.
Ee aye top n ar coyl oyl - Oh yes, it was as black as the entrance to our solid fuel storage area. Tha goes darn eer and tha turns darn quick - You should proceed along this very highway and take the very first turn you come to. Nay cocker ar lass is painting t'roof o t' house - No my dear chap, my good lady wife is currently painting the upper level of our living quarters. And my own personal favourite - Ivry Sunda she meks enuff Yorkshires ter flag a pig-oyl (Every Sunday she makes enough Yorkshire puddings to pave a pigsty). Tha's welcome owd lad. |
