It's good word of advice, since younger generation has 10 months investigations. Hypoglycaemia low sugar lack of milk intake is genetic. They don't have deformity and physical disabilities. You look at the old hospital letters ! They couldn't put diagnosis because the person doesn't look deformed! Word of advice would if that person is looking generically normal, no physical disabilities. Don't cause a Speech delay, that can be hypoglycaemia low sugar lack of milk intake case which is genetic fit! Never say its happened on genetic looking person. They will go down for human rights action! It's the own fault the way they change the Billinge Hospital letter after 1934. They shouldn't mix the two fit's, they are two separate diagnosis!!
@judithrobinson98697 ай бұрын
We are not interested at Billinge Hospital! Hypoglycaemia lack of milk intake is genetic fit, celebral palsy and physical disabilities is deformity. Epilepsy is more than one fit. Being discharged from a Speech Therapist is working like a genetic person! Hypoglycaemia lack of milk intake is to observed like a premature baby's. Your looking out for deformity and physical disabilities. Letters, pediatricians and consultants would of changed from 1934 to 1976. They put the wrong diagnosis onto people, some people from Wigan belong to Manchester, not just Wigan town centre itself!

When I met my scouse girlfriend she would say "talk normal will you" when I would say "T'other day" to her lol. She can talk can't understand her half the time lol.

The Wigan dialects are funny, but from what I've observed I think they are dying out and the local accent is dissappearing, probably due to the influx of "outsiders" from other areas like the south. I live in Ashton and all I hear are Mancs and scouse accents, I'd say Manc accents are very common around here for some reason. Noone talks like Fred Dibnah anymore (just using a good example lol), it's all "Hey guys" "Bye, see ya later" talk. I suppose it's because noone's working "down't pit" anymore.

Wiganers will always be the butt of other peoples jokes whilst they continue celebrating this stupid thick way of speaking - there’s nothing worth preserving when your accent makes you sound like a flat cap Victorian simpleton.

Yep completely agree. Yeah there is alot of Manc accents around Wigan now, not so much closer to Wigan but where I am in Ashton the Manc accent (or what sounds like it) is everywhere, all the younger people between 15-50 talk like Liam Gallagher, and it's all crap like "Hey guys, what you upto?" and "Bye, see ya later". What happened to words iike tarrah that Cilla Black always used to say, I used to always hear people say that when I was young.

The dialect declined since the ‘60s. Speakers will not talk like that to non speakers or in front of them, but will among themselves at home or when they don’t want non speakers to understand or when the feelings are high. Mr Case on the left died, but Fred on the right was still well and …erm something… and gallivanting all morn’ daily last time I checked

Not so much anymore. Like most dialects it’s died out in a far more global world. Time was, I could tell within a couple of miles where someone was from, around the Wigan area.

Wonderful! I love dialects. I have heard a few of these words in Canada. Sluch for mud, Pown for beaten, Bargein (heard this one in a pub in Montreal). Sluch is mostly mud with snow, Pounding hammer in extension a pounded thing is beaten up, I've heard: "He got pown in the alley." And for sure the bloke was beaten up. I have heard jiggert in the sense of tired once. You could tell it wasn't Canadian not Unitedstatian. We have Irish, Scottish and English diaspora in Canada, Montreal is very cosmopolitan.

Sheffield has the same accent as Worksop and Chesterfield. It is the capital of the North Midlands and is only administratively "Yorkshire". You hear Duck as opposed to 'luv'. People wishing it was real Yorkshire like Leeds are in fantasy land, the same as those who wish that the born and bred Cockney Rod Stewart was really Scottish just because he wore tartan lol

I heard that accent there. Downall Green, eh.? In St,Helens, eh.? Well, I worked with several Downall Greeners and, yes, they spoke with that accent. In fact, back in the 70's, most pitmen spoke with that accent. But, in Wigan, the accent is way different.

Wigan is a big borough. Mossley Common is only 6 miles from salford, thats the distance i am in Downall green to Wigan town centre. The accents are nothing like id call Wigan, Like Norley or Higher Ince. The description in the video i think is used a bit vaguely and not intended to actually mean Wigan-Wigan like WE know but just as a variant in the dialect as a whole.
