I disagree with some of the posters here... it isn't Yorkshire.

I was born in Dewsbury which now lies in West Yorkshire, and apart from my pre-school years (spent in Glasgow) I grew up in Leeds and Bradford.

And yes, I speak with a Yorkshire accent, with flat vowels and that noticeable drawl (although there are Scottish elements as well, coming from having much of my family from Glasgow).

We pronounce 'time' just as anyone else would. There are other noticeable giveaways:

'wor' - meaning 'our', this is characteristic of the North East. A Yorkshire 'our' would be 'aar'.

'ashore' wouldn't be 'ashooar' but rather 'ashower'.

'Yorkshire' is actually 'Yorksheer', and not 'Yorksha'

In fact there's a bit of Geordie in this, a bit of Scots, but this is about as much Yorkshire dialect writing as I am Nigerian.

Unless it's someone from Yorkshire with really really bad spelling and grammar and some sort of speech impediment.
Tend to agree with u here im in yorkshire even though im a scot lol  if i ever start talking like that please please shoot me put me and everyone else out of misery lol

It's the same twit that shows up on a regular basis, and posts the mile-long diatribes about the French Foreign Legion, I believe. I think they're the same knobs that do the jessickaypower crap, too. Just my belief.

You know? This is probably why I should never be considered for the position of a moderator. Anywhere, anytime. But would so love to be!

Question: IP bans, is this an option or are they no longer efficient/effective ways to control forum abuse?

Thanks for this, stella40!

I've gotten most of my little Brit-speak from Lovejoy novels, (though I know that means almost everything's out of date. lol) On the other hand, I impressed a bunch of British guys that thought they were talking around me when I knew what "bristols" were.
