    "Yorkshiremen are known for their warmth, wit and resilience"... yes! And frugality ;-) LOL

    • @GENerationXplorers
      @GENerationXplorers  Před 3 měsíci

      I have to admit Dara, coming in and almost still to the day.. frugality right? I’ve met some great exceptions to that rule that could put anyone to shame but aren’t Yorkshire folk supposed to be the meanest on the planet?

    Lots of fun phrases. Dialects are always fun to explore and cultural heritage I think many people overlook. St Louis was a French settlement with plenty of French streets/towns, but we had our own way of saying them. Very fun video guys! Very cool poem.

    • @GENerationXplorers

      Cheers guys it’s super interesting hearing where local dialect comes from and how it evolves even funnier trying to pronounce them 🤣

    Yorkshire is beautiful and it was fun to hear the sayings they use there for certain words 😃
    I think its definitely a unique place with place names hard to pronounce like here in North Wales for non Welsh speakers, we have to laugh at the way people who don't speak Welsh but live in Wales try to pronounce them and I can see how funny our place names sound to oursiders like these here. I would struggle trying to pronounce these Yorkshire place names 🤭🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 Love it !

    Yorkshire really does look straight out of a storybook! So beautiful. What a dream to visit here someday. So much incredible history that goes with such beauty. Love learning about the Yorkshire language! So many words I’ve never heard before, “Reet”, “Bray”, “snicket” that’s so cool. Love when regions have their own terms! Love all the place names too. So interesting and unique! Wow I can’t get over the beautiful scenery around you guys as you walk around! Fantastic tour as always!! Loved learning with you both! 😊💕

    Some Yorkshire words are used in Australia, 'have a gander at that car' and 'I bags the front seat' they're not used as much, at least I don't hear them but they're still words you can hear in Australia.

      @GENerationXplorers  Před 3 měsíci

      thanks Phil, it was really fun and enjoyable to put this one together. we found a poem that encapsulated almost our exact feelings about Yorkshire but CZcams is super strict about reading from books or poems. you can butcher a chart song all day long but read a line from a poem and your out! we rewrote the poem from the ground up to encapsulate all the emotions of the poem we would have liked to use and I think it came off pretty well. that also was easier than expected. Apparently a poet has to be dead for 70 years before the poetry becomes public domain. that being the case expect a lot of William Blake to feature on future videos. hope your having an amazing weekend.

    Reet Nick and Jill! I love Yorkshire! I lived in Wakefield for a few months many years ago and had a great time. Super friendly people, great countryside, vibrant cities. I remember hearing the saying 'tighter than a gnat's chuff' 🫢 I failed all the place names apart from Brough 😢 and I've been to Hessle and Staithes 😂

    • @GENerationXplorers

    Gorgeous! You're certainly right in your statements, Yorkshire is super special and has some of the most wonderful views and scenery around! Heard of quite a few, some i've never heard of though, like snicket and mashin' love it though and its orgins, its super interesting. The place names segment was awesome, interesting to hear the names of these places, when we've been up North I found it odd to listen to the proper pronunciation of Prudhoe castle and Finchale Priory - Prudhoe is like Pruddah and Finchale is Finkle - it's awesome! Appreciate your video, loved all the beautiful locations you went too aswell! Thanks for the video you gorgeous two! x

    • @GENerationXplorers
      @GENerationXplorers  Před 3 měsíci

      Mashin is a real new one to us and quite embarrassing. it’s really common apparently. twenty years here and we are still learning the basics! those are great examples of place names Alessa, there must be so many. Bradford being “BRAT FERD” was the one that surprised us the most, we are definitely adopting that phrase! thank you so much for lovely comment. hope your having a Reet good weekend. all our love. xx

Then tell them where we are from. Oh you're from over there. I think aliens from Mars would get a warmer reception ha ha I guess the War of the Roses still isn't forgotten.

      thank you Simon, bit of an eye opener for us too. Mashin is definitely a new one for us and some of those pronunciations especially BRAT-FERD and STEERS were real shockers. I’m determined to say them “Yorkshire” properly now though.

  • @OutandaboutwithAndy
    @OutandaboutwithAndy Před 3 měsíci +1

    Good video Nick and Jill. Many of the words get used further north in the North East, particularly in mining dialect. Probably as folk moved around for mining work. Interestingly Ding is also used in Hartlepool to say you're an idiot, 'you're a right ding you are lad'.
    The place names are purely Yorkshire though - Brough, Scicestt, Offeden and Rievaulx I knew how to pronounce (cause I've heard of most of them before) but the rest, trust those little Yorkshire tykes invent their own pronunciations. Staithes really was a surprise.

    Born and bred in North Yorkshire, live in York and in my 62 years I can hand on heart say I've never said Aye Up! How do!, or even Now then! (apart from now then). There isn't a definitive Yorkshire dialect or accent, that's a huge generalisation. North, South, East and Wessie all differ. In the larger Cities, Leeds, Sheffield, Hull etc you can tell what part of the City you come from by accent/dialect.
