One
of the distinctive hallmarks of any
Yorkshire person is the Yorkshire accent.
And, being such a large county, there
are regional variations throughout Yorkshire.
Indeed, there are considerable differences
between the West Yorkshire dialect and
that of East Yorkshire, for example. When
I lived in Mirfield, I was unaware of
my accent. But when I ventured 'down
south', the locals could not understand
me! So,
it's time for a bit of a laugh! Enter some text in the box below, click on 'Translate' and your text will be translated into the Yorkshire dialect. As an example, you could start with something like "Mirfield is a small town in West Yorkshire". Go on, give it a try.
