The dialect in the West Midlands ? :lol:
Think Ozzy Osbourne. He's from Aston, in Birmingham. The standard West Midlands accent is the Birmingham one, known as aBrummie accent, but the strength of it varies between Birmingham and the Black Country (South Staffs). Some phrases:
It's bostin'- It's great
It's bosted- It's broken
Ar- Yes
Nah!- No
Where yoo gooin'? - Where are you going ?
Hark at that !- Listen to that!
Goo and wash ya donnies- Go and wash your hands
I just realised, poor Dan, we've off topic'd his off topic thread beyond recognition :oops:
Memmia AKA Joanne Wenlock.
