Bei der Sprechprobe des Autors können wir uns gleich in den Akzent einhören und hier neues Vokabular lernen:

Oh" sounds are pronounced "or". For example, No would be pronounced "nor" But please, please remember that there is no emphasis on the 'R' - if you say it like that, you'll sound Irish.
3Words ending with and "ee" sound are pronounced as "eh" sounds. Example: "Nasty" would be "nasteh".
4Yorkshire folk sometimes say "aye" for yes, and "nay or nah" for no.
5If you ever hear the word "Nowt" (pronounced nohwt -NOT 'nahwt'-) it means "nothing". Similarly, "owt" (pronounced "ohwt") means "anything".
6The word "right" is often pronounced "Raight" and has many, many different uses other than correct or the opposite of left! It could mean "really," E.G - "It's really good"/"It's RAIGHT good." Another use could be "Alright" - "Are you alright"/"Are you all-raight?"
7All use of "the" and "to" is replaced with "t'", which is pronounced by replacing the vowel sound with a half-audible "uh" noise, the kind you might make if you were lifting something unexpectedly heavy. EG: "I'm going into the woods"/"Ah'm goin' int'[uh noise] woods" (note: the g at the end of "ing" is also dropped).
8The letter T is usually dropped at the end of words and replaced with the same "uh"/heavy lifting sound. eg- that becomes tha[uh].
9"Nah then" is a perfectly acceptable, and very friendly way to greet someone. It's Yorkshire speak for "Now, then". Another common greeting is "Ey up, how's tha doin?"
10A wife or girlfriend is commonly referred to as "our lass".
11"Propah" is used to substitute "really" as well as "raight" and "well." EG:- "She's really nasty"/"She wa' propah nasteh"/"She wa' well nasteh".
12The 'th' at the end of 'with' is dropped. "I was going with him"/"I wa' goin' wi' 'im". This also applies to "was".
13"H" sounds are commonly dropped. Him/Her = 'im/'er.
14"Bloody" (or as Yorkshire folk say, 'bloodeh') could be a substitute for "f***ing". E.g., "That bloodeh dog never shuts up" (alternatively, that bloodeh dog neva giz it's gob a rest).
15"Give or gives" sometimes becomes "giz" and "take" becomes "tek".
16"Tha" and "thee" are both used to mean "you".
17You'd rather be French than be a "lanc" - (person from Lancashire. Yorkshire and Lancashire are deadly enemies).
18The word Sandwich is sometimes shortened to "Sarnie" or "butty" instead. Eg- "i'm 'avin an 'am sarnie" ('am instead of ham) or "i'm 'avin a chip butty".
19Watch some clips on YouTube or films with Yorkshire accents. Brassed Off, Kes and The Full Monty are good examples.
Some famous movies might also be dubbed with a Yorkshire accent.
20A lot of Yorkshire people don't pronounce the letter 'h', so 'how' would be pronounced 'ow'.
Ad

I think the magic 't' is probably one of the more popular northern abbreviations. Read: "I'm going t' pub" and so on.
Favourites of mine also include:

t' interweb - the internet
By 'eck - bloody hell
Ee bah gum, ecky thump - a phrase of exclamation (although not said as often as I'd like!)
Eh up love - Hello there dear
The famous, Bah t' at - without a hat, as seen in the song Ilkley Bah t' at
Duck - Dear (again, less frequently used in the city centre)
Wah ya dinghy - Oh you idiot (probably said in more of a Hull accent than Leeds)
Bob - Put/come (e.g. "I'll bob 'em in the bag for you love!" and "Bob over later and we'll have a nice cuppa!")

To blob - to not turn up.
Laik - to play.
Bob into the pub - go into the pub.
Brae - to hit.
Calling - talking.
Gill - a half (of beer.)
Chump - to collect firewood.
On'y - only.
Allus - always.

I’m going to need to get an urban dictionary to understand the @UrbanATShedCrew film. I’m such a soft southerner lol

Au ja, womöglich bei einem Groupwatch: "Wat hat er jerade jesacht???" - "Moment, ich glaube das heißt xxx" - "Oder vielleicht ist es doch yyy?"
Unsere Englisch-Kenntnisse werden sich enorm steigern, ein echtes Bildungsboard halt!

MUPPET - Fool, dupe, victim, target

Anschließend werden wir in der Lage sein, bestechend "tiefschürfende" Gespräche an gemütlichen Orten zu führen.

Das Logo gefällt mir übrigens sehr gut- die Hütte ist wohl wirklich der zentrale Punkt des Films, der schiefe Baum davor die Bedrohung/ schiefe Bahn - und die Sonne als Hoffnungszeichen *wildinterpretiert*?

Wort des Tages im Twitterfeed:



Ob da wohl Kermit heute mit vor Ort war ?
