Has anyone been saying "like" more subcontiusly?

[MargeryFan]

I've noticed once or twice. Can't speak for the times I haven't noticed! :sad:

[Stephanie]

i've been saying it a lot more, like alot actually.

[bansheewails]

No, lol, but then I am used to hearing it over used like!

:thumbs:

[iEmery]

I do lol ! :(

[MJBFAN]

I haven't been saying "Like"".
I have been using "that's what I'm talking about" a lot. Something I never did before I heard Karly using it.

[sotally_tober]

its irish coloquial language its like the way we use 'Like' as a full-stop in our sentences..personally i dont use it that much but i do say 'Like' sometimes

[Hedgie]

I say it all the time, i'm Geordie :shrug::conf2:

[RCW1945]

Do you mean,like, beneath one's conscience.
Like sub-consciously.

[30stone]

I have been doing it since Stuart and Dale last year.

[scot]

I'm scottish and its used here as much as in ireland and geordieland.

oh, sometimes we put an 's' on the end likes

and even this one a lot - likesay.

[Ramsay]

i always say like whenever im talking like

[shash]

It is my pet hate, but even so I have caught myself saying it on occasion, much to my own annoyance LOL

I think outside of Ireland and Geordieland it just does not sound right. Noirin used it to terrible excess though.

[sotally_tober]

i have been to scotland a few times and newcastle but never notive people using 'like' very often maybe because it wasnt on my mind

[bansheewails]

'Like' is not as bad as 'whatever' used as a full stop! It drives me mad!

Here, Donegal, lots of people have startiing using it at the end of every sentence or to finish a sentence.

My Mother In Law says it all the TIME a she is seventy! The other day she said

'I need new wallaper and whatever for the living room, not sure about the colour and whatever!'

Whats happening! Is it all Katherine Tates fault?


:shrug:

[Tom]

I do it all the time, everyone does here

[cell]

Even in Canada it's horribly overused...

[Lauren]

I'm Geordie, I say it all the time anyway. :laugh::laugh::laugh:

[scot]

Scousers use it loads too

I know what you mean now, Yeah it's pretty bad. I hope it's not one of those things I do without realising!

[MargeryFan]

Freddie uses it so much. The combination of him and Noirin using it has brainwashed me somewhat, I'm sure of it! :conf2:
