[@sirloin5479]

Morecambe me

[@libertyjane]

@@godlyoblivion nah means it’s boiling out lol, I know what it means it’s used all the time lol

[@ChristinaLouise44]

You'd probably get called "cock" by someone over 60 maybe. Cracking the flags is definitely said, but apart from that I haven't heard of any of the others in Burnley, maybe elsewhere in Lancashire :) "Put the big light on"- means put the main light on in the room "It's lit up like Blackpool illuminations in here"- means someone has forgotten to turn the lights off, or they are too bright "I'm sweating cobs"- I'm sweating a lot

[@picklestv4977]

I agree with this, only my grandparents say this “ya oreet cock” 🤣

[@mprt99]

Can you rename this video to Lancashire accent 100 years ago? Lived here all me life and I ain't heard anyone under 80 say have of these

[@wobbles71]

Untraveled EXACTLY

[@raahimas2776]

THANK YOU

[@zotoda]

i thought it was just me

[@spodbod1100]

Buthe does prounouce Gradely almost to erfection.....if ur from wigan anyway

[@georgio101]

Really? I'm apparently a Millennial and I use most of these. I don't say baggin, I might say scran instead. I've heard 'jackbit' too from Wiganers. The only one that sounds really old fashioned to me is 'gradely'. Are you all teenagers n here or something? I think a lot of it differs from town to town.

[@katemason3438]

Lanky? That's what you call someone who's tall and skinny. I obviously need to get out more. Never heard of jiggered, gradely, corporation pop. Should have had words like owt, nowt, aye and phrases like chuffin eck, is he eckers like and calling the main light the big light. I'm going to start reintroducing the (particularly popular from my childhood) insult big girl's blouse and going to start saying bog off again.

[@otterwingate7581]

Can't really say big girl's blouse anymore. Can yer, people tend to get uppity. Can't understand why. The toss pots

[@daviddunn2006]

Kate Mason how have you never heard of jiggered. You're clearly don't live in Lancashire.

[@jericho01000]

am a lanky. you clearly don't not live here. bet way south.

[@Boss-ru7fc]

Tea time in Lancashire meens DINNER TIME

[@slippypenguin233]

It's annoying to see someone who calls tea dinner

[@flokivilgerarson4500]

As being from Crappy Accy, we would say: Breakfast, dinner, tea.

[@Blackledge777]

Av lived in Lancashire me whole life, and av never heard any of these, tho it is very educational video. If a Korean guy in Lancashire asks you f some "corporation pop" e means water 😂😂

[@QWERTYOP80]

I'm from Lancashire and I've never heard of a bunch of these.

[@romanized]

you just can't hate this man

[@montylikesbeer]

Cracking the flags refers to being so hot as to crack the flagstones. Flagstones are paving stones that used to be used to pave outside terraced houses or back yards. Corporation pop was used all the time when I was a kid. Gradely should be pronounced "Gray (as in the colour) dly" Great work though.

[@ellataylor6838]

Does anybody else instead of saying cold say cowd? Mostly people in the Accrington area

[@MahouKat]

My dad does

[@maddiewalls8640]

am from blackburn a say cowd

[@dannyboy6114]

I say Keld or cewd in st helens

[@krisinsaigon]

they do over in burnley

[@chrispbacon3042]

My auntie does.

[@afloatingpineapple6170]

This sounded more cockney and its not called Lancy but ok

[@lukegriffin6577]

Speakin as a Norfolk born and bred man, please Billy, you gotta do a Norfolk dialect video.

[@KosmikElf]

I was watching these types of videos to try to understand how my Great Grandparents spoke in 1880 Olden, Lancashire. Can you tell me if those same phrases would have been used then?? THANK You!

[@KosmikElf]

Foe Hammer Thank you.

[@KosmikElf]

I want to THANK YOU. I am so very happy to watch your videos!

[@meatfruit1123]

I was born in 1969 in Preston and I’ve lived here all my life. Growing up in the 70’s it was a different world and the accent was much stronger as it had been for a long time. Most of the comments here must be from pretty young people I think because I know all the phrases, since the internet and how tv has moved on and influenced us all it’s definitely changed. Like the rest of the uk though the regional accents change from town to town too, So a Lancashire accent can be heard but quite easily narrowed down and localised to a particular part of the county. If I randomly met a Wiganer in a foreign country and started talking to them I’d know they were from Wigan straight away. Where were your ancestors from? And where do you live? :)

[@hereforthecommentsbananas3826]

Big county with lots of different variants. My parents moved up from Manchester when I was 6. Lots of people moved to Rossendale valley from all over so the old accents watered down. I was near Clitheroe recently in barowford . I think there's a lot of southerners moved there as I'm pritty sure Lancashire folk would pronounce it barrafed.

[@dianapt1]

im from east lancashire and this confuses me

[@ryanhack8755]

same (preston)

[@flokivilgerarson4500]

Crappy Accy and most of these are bollocks

[@herbivorethecarnivore8447]

I have lived in Lancashire all my life and I have never heard a single person talk like this.

[@davidrigby]

Great attempt Billy. Apart form mispronuciation of Gredely you did well. Most of the words are correct I know all of them. THere are great expressions too such as 'well I'll go to the foot of our stairs' - though that might be yorkshire.

[@PopUpPirate1975]

Loved it!!! Proper irreverant view and some accurate observations!!!! So interesting to hear your interpretations haha

[@Bidibidip000]

thanks Billy, it's very useful to know & learn the dialect before I come to Lancaster this autumn 😊👍

[@ianguy7884]

My Grandfather used some of these. It all depends which part of Lancs you're from.

[@Roseanne-cv6pl]

Thank you very much, it's so useful!

[@Adenikeify]

I just saw your interview on Arirang Tv's Heart to Heart. Cheering you on!!! You're doing an awesome job^^

[@krisinsaigon]

i'm from lancashire, and i would say the words you need to use are owt/nowt/summat- anything/nothing/something tha' reet? for how are you and were for was, never use was, that's a southern word then you're grand

[@SirVoltz]

I live in Lancashire and I've never heard of any of these

[@BingleFlimp]

I know most of them. I only really use "oreet" and "gradley" (although he's pronouncing it wrong) and I have relatives that use some of the others but in all cases we say it to sound old fashioned as a joke.

[@meatfruit1123]

Hi Billy , All 100% Lancashire phrases, I think the people on here saying they’ve never heard any of them are probably very young. The dialect has definitely changed over the years and you don’t hear people using “thee” and “thy” for “you” and “your” anymore really. I’m from Preston and just turned 50 but know them all. “crackin t’flags” as in paving stones or flags, meaning it’s extremely hot. “Baggin”, my dad used it all the time , it’s a packed lunch.” Corporation pop” tap water😆 pop is a generic term for all fizzy drinks and corporation from the days your local council (or corporation as it was known) was responsible for supplying the drinking water. “Cock” for pal or mate, “oreet” a friendly greeting .....”t’oreet Cock?” , are you alright mate? Oreet alright is used as a greeting and really means “are you well?” “Jiggered” or “knackered” or “buggered” all mean tired or exhausted (although buggered can have a very different meaning 😆) “Gradely” meaning good , but the ade part pronounced like in lemonade . A few of the phrases aren’t right as you wouldn’t really say “I need some baggin time” . But as you said your accent is not perfect, I can say though it’s better than my Korean 😁 Much appreciated video of my part of England and nice to know someone has an interest. Another one that isn’t used much anymore is “put wood int’ th’oil”, (put the wood in the hole) wood being the door and the hole being the door opening, or “close the door” .😂. The accent really does change from town to town quite dramatically too, Wigan and Bolton are good examples, never mind Manc and Scouse accents.

[@FreePalestineForever152]

It's like Pokemon but you're quest is to master all dialects. I send you my best 'Wagwan piffting what's your BBM pin?'

[@thewarroom3117]

no one says i need some tea time lol.. more like i cant wait till tea time that makes more sense.

[@pqpq999]

빌리님 영상보고 항상 즐거움 얻고가요 감사합니다!ㅎㅎ

[@jacobashburner7594]

Have lived lived in Lancashire all my life and I have literally never heard any of these used in my entire life.

[@undergroundoriginal8465]

lived in lancashire all my life never heard gradley before , in the area I'm from we would say grand as in "he's a grand un is lad" and we would also say something like hows thi doin cocker or oreyt cock how ya doing but it is more of an old way of speaking its changing now we also have alot of yorkshire infulence due to being right ont border

[@ammondinklage333]

Dear KoreanBilly, I find your Lancashire accent good because it sounds a bit throatier than British standard English. Yours sincerely Ammon Dinclage

[@iangill7318]

I think perhaps some of the comments are a little unfair, as some others have alluded to Lancashire is a very big and diverse County with many different words and variations on the accent and words. I am from Ormskirk and often use the word jiggered meaning tired out and thought it was quite a common term? Baggin has largely died in my area out but was used a lot by my elderly relatives and is still in use by the farming community - I think it came from the pack up lunch farm workers took with them into the fields (ie in the bag). Ormskirk is a lot more scouse now, As is Skem, but if you hear the ‘Old Skemmers’ talk they have a very broad Lancs accent that differs even to Wigan. If you see the Paddy McGuiness / Freddie Flintoff vid on Lancs words on KZbin they refer to Corporation Pop, so that is probably more from the Chorley/Preston area and obviously still in use. Oreet is certainly very Wigan, and I thought common elsewhere in Lancs.

[@iangill7318]

Also, I thought crackin the flags was a well used term all over and not just in Lancs?

[@teacherbeckham4112]

Hey, Billy~~!! What an amazing video you have made~~!! Without your explanation, I would have seen all the dialects you mentioned as another foreign language. ^^ You are providing really really invaluable expressions I might never have heard before or won't be able to hear for good. Thanks a million.

[@AaronHL168]

i hate to break it to ya pal... it's really not. a few accurate things... but mostly utter bollocks

[@meatfruit1123]

It is right teacher beckham,there are just a lot of millennials on here who talk with a Lancashire accent but not the dialect. It hasn’t taken long for the internet to influence the dialect .

[@chubbymungus1913]

An accurate representation of Lancashire dialect words, good job

[@c1tc4t]

Can you do a video on Devon/South West England dialect words? Love your videos bro!

[@rhysewin8642]

Please do Carlisle/Cumbria its like Scottish and English combined.

[@afloatingpineapple6170]

I’m from a village in the centre of Lancashire and haven’t heard any of these apart but as you put as ‘oreit’ but it’s still spelt ‘alright’ we just say it like ‘alreet’

[@ellataylor6838]

A Floating Pineapple usually it’s something like reet- well in Accrington anyway

[@jakematthews5280]

[@comanchio1976]

[@spodbod1100]

[@gomorasmith1015]

It’s more r8 than reet the more east you get generally, there are places they say it in Lancashire buts that’s a proper Yorkshire thing

[@meatfruit1123]

We’d say oreet more in preston but I’ve definitely here it more like r8 or oreight.

[@onthestairsgaming48]

[@alanthedrum]

NOT Graddley but Gradely

[@pesquiglly_1969]

Alan Crook Lancashire people don’t say that anyway

[@olerenshawify]

Good vid. Just one observation from an old. Your pronunciation of the word gradely is a bit off. Instead of grad which rhymes with sad. It is graaadly rhyming with grey.

[@thejakeyboi]

I think this guy has been living in Lancashire, asking to be taught colloquialisms but all the locals have been having a laugh....

[@mariebarr1745]

I have a quetion. Can we say "he speaks gradely english"?

[@georgio101]

Aye. And if tha said it like a Lancastrian tha'd be speaking the most gradely English of all :) That's a very old fashioned word nowadays though, a lot of the Lancs kids in these comments don't seem to know it.

[@elizabethashworth]

[@BingleFlimp]
