Having just searched āSearchesā there was a Halloween edition again last year. Tempting to enter some random search terms for next time, see if we can make the top ten
@Melody1 I also feel I am very lucky, I have a lovely wife and a beautiful house and life.
Life could be a lot harder and there are many many more people suffering more. I am very grateful for everything that I have.
Just wanted to say, being across the pond, there have been a lot of words in the different threads that I thought, what the heck are they talking about! and had to google them I started a list of them to show my husband who also didnāt know what any of them were: cwtches, cuppa, bab, bits, a&e, footy, and some others that Iām now forgetting
I get this totally.
I live in the South and get very confused up in the Northeast. The Geordie dialect is a very special, unique & beautiful thing! I had to ask a shopkeeper to repeat herself three times, on my last visit to Newcastle!!
Iāve still to this day no idea what she asked me!
Take the phrase: āIām gan yem to me scratcha.ā
(Iām going home to bed)
or
āGet doon on ya honkas manā
(get down on all fours, man)
or
"Gannin oot on the toon the neet ta git mortalā
(Going out to town tonight to drink copious alcoholic beverages)
When I phone, I regularly have to ask people to repeat themselves, Iāve had this issue phoning Scotland, Wales, Ireland the Northeast and Northwest, I really struggle to understand the different dialects, but also I was in a petrol garage near me recently and I asked for something, I had to ask him 4 times gave up and I just said donāt worry thanks. I often feel guilty afterwards.
ok, that link made my day. Purfect haloween post
