Yeah but youse way down in Kent....and Kentish is a much older variation of what is basiclly the same language as all the boys north of ''The Angle'' speak...
Now if you wuz from up in the Norf-east where Lundis and Pelle's great great great great Grandfathers came and had their holdiday homes then you'd understand those nordic languages like that (snap).
Remember Harald? 1066 and all that? Know the history? Just before he fought his cousin William from Normandy (get it? Nor Man---where do ya think they came from?) what was Harald doing?
Harold Godwinson har to run up Norf and fight
Haraldr Sigurðarson....also know as
Hardrada (
harðráði, which today would be Hård råd or Hard advice meaning a hard man..
What I'm saying is you ought to understand Norwegian and Swedish cause they were at some point the same gang as the Angles some of which wander off Westward and settled in Kent, some wander off to the North and became Danes, Swedes and Norskies...And then some started making ''visits'' to all the coasts of Europe and the British Isles and when they got tired of commuting to work, some settled down in the Norf-east, the coasts of Scotland and ireland, so many settled in the West of France they re-named it after them as Norman-dy.
So Yorkshire dialect is just a variation of West Norse and should be easy to understand all these other dialects..
I mean I can and I'm just some old knucklehead moto-cross guy whose head was dinged
(fick däng för mycket) (see how similar? ding=däng) :arrows:too much (that's the only explanation for why I can understand Yorkshire-talk and I'm sticking wif it)
