wheras my family up north say "owt" and "nowt"

It's not 'somethink', it's 'sumfink'

Where be it blackbird to? I know where he be,
He be up yon wurzel tree, and I be after he!
Now I sees he, and he sees I,
Bugger'd if I don't get 'en
Wit a girt big stick I'll knock 'im down
Blackbird I'll 'ave he!
La la la la la la
La la la la la la
'Ow's 'e, Fadder?
Alright!

I love brizzle/zummerzet

I'm talking about the vast majority of people who are decently educated and pronounce other words in their vocabulary fine but then somehow seem to sprout a 'k' instead of a glorious 'g', chavs who say 'sumfink' are a lost cause.

Annoys me so much when people say 'somethink' :mad:

I too hate those kind of silly endings, along with such things as "borrow me some money" ... it's LEND me not borrow me :/

It annoys me when people around here say "go" instead of "said". In fact it's more like "gew".

For example:

'She gew to me "ha'ya goh any braaaaaaaacli"'
'then I gew "sure ere yar" n gih er some'.

silly welsh people that over use 'leave'

eg 'leave me go' instead of 'let me go'

Pestilence · 17 Apr 2008 at 22:00

Not to mention "Pix-ture" instead of "Picture".

People that say "acceptable" as "asseptable" are annoying, although not many people i know say it like that. Supernanny does it. :mad:
