"She turned around and went".

[harvey19]

My nan is always turning around and saying stuff. 'So I turned around, and I said to her, I said...'

Did she ever turn round and say " What does give me the salmon or I'll destroy you mean"?

If I had a pound etc . .

 

You could spend it in Poundland:hihi:.

Not that I recall.

At least that's concise and to the point

 

So's a knee in the groin.

One that seems very prevalent amongst sheffielders (i didn't hear it at all until I moved here, and not just the young ones once i was here) is "learn" instead of "teach".

My gf's mother used it the other day, I'm teaching her how to use a PC, and once i have finished she is apparently going to "learn [her husband] how to do it"

Get a new girlfriend quick, mate. She's obviously from the lower, uneducated classes and therefore totally beneath you.

Actually both her and her mother are intelligent - it seems to be a regional thing.

I've heard people say it all over the country, south and north. They're usually the same people that 'borrow' you something, when you want to 'lend' it.

Somebody once said to me: "I'm well ill."

My mum also says learn instead of teach, sometimes i find myself saying it too, it must be catching

that sounds funny

You only have to watch prime time tv for other instances

CSI New York Mac Taylor- "Go to ...... and bring Danny with you" - if you're going somewhere surely you take someone with you!!

 

Aaaaahhhh - one of my bugbears, the way the Americans use "bring" instead of "take".

 

Another one is their use of the word "protest" - instead of the correct phrase, "protest against" - I actually caught the BBC news using in incorrectly the other day.

 

And I can't stand "meet with" - you just "meet" somebody, you do not need the "with".

 

I'd better stop now - I can feel my blood pressure rising!

 

 

Hell's bells - I think I've just heard a BBC commentator saying "We need to do the math" - it's not "math", it's "maths", you ignorant cow!!!!
