Default Your Local Slang
Another thread gave me an idea of posting some local dialect

I'm a Rutland/Leicester gal but speak no'ing lik wot I shud!

Few few bits of my local tongue (no dirty remarks please)

ark at it! -listen to it. ie raining.
arseovatit - he fell over
Baleev - Yes, I believe you!
cob - roll/bap
coodya - could you
cuntya - couldn't you
me duck - my friend: "alrigh' m'duck" - "alright my friend"
e's gorra chin on - he's being grumpy
'ees gorra cobbon - he seems to be upset
frowawobbler - get mad
fippin' hell- you are shocked!
giz a gander - give me a look
mashin - brewing the tea
Mardy Arse - a person who is very upset.

we use kind of all of them stated above, here. :P

but here is some glorious phrases of an Essex GURL.

Innit - Isn't it?
Izit - It's supposed to mean "Is it" but I just use it after everything. Like, "I hav loads of homework" "So do I. urgh Iziiiiiiit" etc.
Buff - good looking
