It wasn't since I married this southerner that I realised what serious language difficulties there are! For instance what in East Yorkshire terms a ginnel? Being mafted? Got a spell? Fell over the sink? Or in West Yorkshire terms snap? caussing? bab? In Birmingham the latter is a term of endearment, very confusing for toddlers new to the area!
