Listening to Dial a Deal on the radio can be entertaining. This morning a man had among other items to sell, a cheer. Another fellow had some fencen. I remembered a grandmother who always said 'Het' for heat. Wonder why we have never been asked on the phone to push a number if we spoke Queen Elizabethen English? It is gradually dying out but you still hear it in the moutain states.
Were you ever told that you 'orta' do something? The south has it's own language, which # do we push to talk to 'you all', 'efin' we 'wanta' talk 'to-ye'? ' I had the bjesus skeered outa me and there ain't nary anuther body theer'.
Oh what fun we can have just listening to English, Some people would say we are butchering the Kings English......No, we are not, just depends on where you live, where your folks were from and which # you push.
