Is there something only someone local to you would say?

  • God, yeah. Generally in Newcastle I guess there are quite a few. But where I'm specifically at? I don't know, because I'm never sure who would have heard it and where it's used. The only ones I feel slightly sure about are the words I end up making up (for a lack of better words, or rather a lack of knowledge of better words). Aside from that, words I hear all the time, has anyone here heard narf? As in: "that's narf stupid, skitting him, like" Hmm, I'm curious as to who would have heard that word on here. Maybe it's not local at all:D!

    I say a lot of words a bit funny as well. For example, I say "isn't she" a bit weird (sounds like "intsha"), along with quite a lot of other ones. Don't know if that counts at all.:P Hmm, I might have a think and work out if any of them are local ones. As for greetings, it's mainly "Yareet?", but I think a lot of people in the North East do that. Does that still count as local? Because if it does, then there are tonnes of those.
