Ha Bonzo, yes! The pronunciation of these gruesome new expressions is excruciating, but interesting too.

Mrrzy,my poor Ivorian husband spoke only Malinke and French when he first came to the UK. He had the devil's own trouble trying to get English versions of 'n'est-ce pas' correct. Isn't he? Don't they? Hadn't we? Wasn't she? It drove him mad. Sadly he still gets them wrong, but substitutes 'hein?' and a head tilt.

In spite of my teacherish and snobby attitude to language changes, I'm secretly enchanted by new words, accents and expressions. I can't resist copying them and using them in conversation.
I love Norfolkisms too. A man yesterday outside the village shop asked me if I'd like to 'coax' his dog. That's Norfolk for 'stroke'. I immediately coaxed and coaxed the animal!
