Local sayings

[otispunkmeyer]

im from Middlesbrough up in the Northeast of England and we have a few sayings that get odd looks from people who live down south for instance

where you at? - pronounced where-y-at?

got some one well confused till i explained its how i ask people where they are

h'away man - pronounced ha-way man

most people get this from the context in which its used....when someones taking their bitter sweet time over something saying this is like saying "hurry it up!"

aye' man - pronounced I-man
short for yeah or yes

ya alright pet? - pronounced ya'lright pet

mainly said by old people....also dear, flower, and pettle can be exchanged for pet.

your joking arent you? - pronounced ya-jokin-arn-ya?

basically another version of WTF when someones idea is totally bollocks. or when you ask someone a question like "nemeth could of scored that sitter" to which the response might be "ya joking arn ya...nemeth's a useless sack of sh!t"


any of you guys got slang/sayings that people in the next state/county would be like WTF if you blurted out some of them?

I cant help it that 55% of the local population are 10-16 year old welfare kids. This is how the people here talk. Whether u like to admit it or not... the little patch villages on the wrong side of the rr tracks exist... and i moved next to one without knowing it...I'm im thinking of moving back from wherest I came.

Well maybe some time ago. I live in Tennessee. Now there are no more native tennesseans, just migrated folks from California, Michigan, and Indiana.
