I am from Russia and am currently writing a book. The events are happening in England and I had to pick a specific place where it all happens. I pointed at a random spot on the map. That random spot happened to be York, and now here I am, learning Yorkshire dialect and accent. I can understand you, Yorkshire folk, when you don't use unfamiliar words, but other times I'm so confused. It is like a new language to me! :D So thank you for enlightening.

Welcome to Yorkshire, I hope you have a great time while your here. Start with a proper sentence, then remove as many syllables as possible and hey presto, you're speaking Yorkshire. The Other, becomes T'other. To The, become T'. It Isn't In The Tin, becomes T'int In Tin. (A Jimmy Car joke) Personally I'd avoid trying to write the Yorkshire accent phonetically, as it often becomes unreadable, just use certain words that express the dialect and people will get the picture. P.S We have our own anthem here called 'On Ilkley Moor Baht' 'at' (without a hat), it's about the cycle of life and death, and a great way to get some insight into our way of thinking.

Simon Dalzell alreyt mate, bit a Yorkshire dunt harm no one. I know you've bin here a short while now but here's a late welcome to God's County. 3 tips: don't speak until spoken to for the first 5 years u live here, always (this is a must) have both hands in view when sitting at a table in a pub, always say tah when saying thank you
YOU KNOW. PEOPLE ALL OVER THE COUNTRY SAY 'ALRIGHT' AS A HELLO. IT MOSTLY COMES FROM EAST LONDON, MATE. HUDDERSFIELDS A SHITHOLE. I LIVE HERE NOW. FUCK KNOWS WHY.

I'm from the southern US, and all the debates about breadcake vs teacake reminds me of how we southerners debate about shopping cart vs buggy (what Brits call a trolley), and whether bless your heart is a disguised insult or genuine sympathy (can be either depending on context). I really enjoy hearing the Yorkshire dialect. These videos are good to help us understand the various Yorkshire words and slang. Steel City Man from Sheffield has some interesting videos, as does Harrison Fletcher from Rotherham. Thanks for posting!
Yeh it's like fishcake, in Sheffield a fish cake is two slices of potatoes with a slice of fish in the middle and deep fried in batter then tha puts it on a bread cake and that's got a fish cake buttie, but other places call a rissole a fish cake, that's just mashed up fish with a coating of bread crumbs and deep fried!!

Yorkshire. Best blood'eh count'eh in't countr'eh! (That's right folks, better than all the other 47 counties in the UK which includes national beauty spots such as the Lake district, the Brecon beacons, the Highlands, Dartmoor, Snowdonia, Norfolk Broads, Black Country, the Welsh valleys, Cornish coast, the Cotswolds. Also better than Cardiff, Birmingham, Brighton, Leicester, Nottingham, Manchester, Durham, London, Bristol, Newcastle, Southampton etc.) If there's one thing that you can't say Yorkshireman have too much of.... it's modesty.
Chips wi bits for me. We say ginnel and snicket. I think one is between the houses and the other is a little shortcut. We drop our Hs and say ‘ows tha?’ And ‘me sen’. This is all old West Riding. My favourite word was laking as in playing or lecking as we’d pronounce it.
growing up in rotherham i heard everyone pronounce it as jennel but when i worked at barnsley hospital they called it a ginnel but in rotherham we also said snicket. also called it a bread cake but stick some chips on it and its a chip buttie
Yorkshire man's motto Eat all, sup all, pay nowt, Hear all, see all, say nowt. And if ever tha does owt for nowt, Allus do it for thi sen. And, to cap it all, if it's not from Yorkshire it's shite.
Been living in Yorkshire for a few months. I notice you all cut off words but the statements still carry a full and robust context. For example I was taking a taxi from the train station and the driver said something like, "Had fun?" So I assume he was asking me "Did you go out of town and have fun?". I responded, "Yes. I went to Newcastle for the weekend. It was great." We continued the conversation for a few minutes.
I remember that too while I was growing up in Wetherby! Mainly ginnels but both terms used - there seem to have been lots of them in Wetherby!! More than in some other parts of the country.
Please don't let it die out. Unfortunately many others the world over are choosing to speak Californian San Fernando Valley Uptalk. That is spreading all over due to American television and film, music etc. If you are not familiar with uptalk basically you put a question mark at the end of every sentence thus grown people talking like 13 year old girls from L.A. or even worst "Kim Kartrashians" and all her sisters very annoying.
I was actually ashamed my mum lived in York. I used to say she lived in New York as a kid, but, she actually lives in York, England. Um, yeah, she came here under pretty bad circumstances, but, she's still alive. She's a good woman! That's all I have to say rn. Bye, David.
In the North Riding, we don't say ay-up as a greeting, we say "now then" often shortned to just "now" or "naahh".... A greeting exchange would go something like: *Jack:* Nah then Fred, 'ow is't? (hello Fred, how are you? - lit: how is thee). *Fred:* Aye, just grand, an' 'ow's thee? (Yeah, good thanks, how're you?) *Jack:* Ahh, ah'm reet, it's t'uthers! (Ahh, I'm alright, it's everyone else that's wrong!) a common dark-humour Dales comeback that allows a cheerful greeting to become a complaint, which is a sure sign that a Dalesman is happy enough.
Crazy how Middlesbrough is North Yorkshire, but also North-East specifically (Teeside). So our accents is a mixture, like i use them phrases, the thing between houses i call an alley way, the breadcake i call a bun for anything else unless it's wi chips then it's a chip butty. I say owt and now, but i rarely say ey-up, i say ey sometimes when i'm informally speaking, getting someone's attention. I say ai'ght/ight for greetings. But a difference in us is the words Work being Werk, Shirt being Shert, Dirt being Dert, Purple being Pairple/Perple. I struggle pronouncing the propa way if people tell me too. The Ck at the end can be a bit harsh, lil like Liverpool's but not as harsh. Sometimes i miss "the"out of sentences or "h" out of words like Ouses Houses, Arry Harry and so on.
I'm from Scunthorpe in north Lincolnshire.we speak very much the same but with a posher accent.we say tenny,or ten foot for a ginnel as it's ten foot wide.did you know a Yorkshireman has won a gold medal in every Olympic sport apart from one.under water swimming,as they can't keep their mouths shut long enough.😂🍺
I'm from south yorkshire and i pronounce ginnel with a "Guh" instead of a J sound, im from barnsley, do other places in South yorkshire say it differently?
@Biggest Natural Muscle It's true, this lot are speaking close to standard English (albeit with strong, maybe exaggerated Yorkshire pronunciation) and throwing in dialect words for amusement. I'd bet if you recorded them a few hours later after some beers, subtitles would be essential when they slip into stronger dialect. I feel entitled to say this being from Doncaster myself.
I live in Doncaster but I never heard most of these. Maybe even if I did then I just didn't understand it, but I could understand these three guys just fine despite really strong accent which isn't really common
Jimbob 926- I'm from the southern US and love the Yorkshire dialect, esp Sheffield! I love all these videos about how to speak Yorkshire. Very cool. It has a certain lilt to it that makes it fun to listen to.
I've hear both snicket and ginnel being used. I'm gonna disagree with breadcake. I know it as a teacake. I was born and brought up in Bradford and we called them scraps. I now live in Halifax where they call them bits (as in fish bits). Somebody said that Tom is from Bolton (he's definitely Yorkshire!). If you want the Bolton accent just listen to the late great Fred Dibnah!
In North Yorkshire, an allyway is a wynd (pronounced wind - as in the thing that blows, not the thing that you do to a clock) and snicket is basically any shortcut pathway.
Think on means think about it...so my gran would say (if she was scolding me) 'think on'. I probably heard this a lot from her and if i was beginning to annoy her it would be 'yerl get me vexed'
Barnsleys best yorkshire accent its the most broad and differant to rest! Baaarnsley born & Bred! a think ponti accents they elongate there letter "o" to "ow" so road is rowd or polo is powlow 🤣

No idea what part of Yorkshire these guys are meant to be from but as someone from leeds west yorkshire i have never heard anyone use the letter T so much. we lose it in words like matter or letter, its more a feeling then a letter when we pronounce it. we dont use our tongue to say 'T' and we dont use the typical yorkshire 't' as a word unless its an abbreviation of 'to the' so half of what they said didnt even make sense to me. the guy in the middle almost had the french 'R' going on as well which makes even less sense. because we drop that letter half the time as well. the accent varies by location but seeing as this channel has a lot of focus in leeds i dont really know what happened here.
ok, whats this bread cake thing? you said something about putting a mate on it, and then something else. I have no idea what those two things you put on there are. If it helps, I'm from the NY, US. Edit: so I just went to google turns out they are buns. Hope this helps someone else!
I'm an American who can (generally) pick up a Yorkshire accent if the speaker sounds like someone in the downstairs staff at Downton Abbey. But that's all I have to go on.
it's the crispy pieces of batter that break off in the fryer when they are stirring the fish around. Instead of binning them, they scoop them up and put them in the corner of the hot cabinet then ask you if you want scraps when ordering your fish n chips. As mentioned, other fish n chips elsewhere in the country call them "bits". Same thing. They are free as they only go in the bin at the end of the day if nobody wants them.
Ay up dook, how we go? Ay? What are you daft! Turn off the bloody lights, it's like damn Blackpool illuminations in here! My family from Sheffield, I know them all 😂
As a kid, lived in South Yorks and south Notts. ‘Ey up me duck’ Is definitely Nottingham, so ‘ey up’is not totally Yorkshire. We had a Snicket at the end of our cul-de-sac in Rotherham, S Yorks but a ginnel, with a hard g in South Notts. Owt is a epitomised by that Yorkshire saying, “If tha ever does owt for nowt, allus do it fo’ thissen””

Edit: so I just went to google turns out they are buns. Hope this helps someone else!
It’s a tea cake
Mate is his pronunciation of 'meat'

Ravenfield Bramley and sunnyside it’s a snicket
I'm an American who can (generally) pick up a Yorkshire accent if the speaker sounds like someone in the downstairs staff at Downton Abbey. But that's all I have to go on.
So what does “scraps” mean?
it's the crispy pieces of batter that break off in the fryer when they are stirring the fish around. Instead of binning them, they scoop them up and put them in the corner of the hot cabinet then ask you if you want scraps when ordering your fish n chips. As mentioned, other fish n chips elsewhere in the country call them "bits". Same thing. They are free as they only go in the bin at the end of the day if nobody wants them.
I find it interesting that word like"Party " the Yorkies omitted there R

Ay up dook, how we go? Ay? What are you daft! Turn off the bloody lights, it's like damn Blackpool illuminations in here! My family from Sheffield, I know them all 😂
You sound like you're from Manchester or Bolton and you're very much putting it on.
I agree with most but it's not a Breadcake it's a Teacake.
And it's bits on your Fish and Chips not scraps.

"scraps" are chopped up pieces of crispy pork fat.
This is amazing 😂

You Brits and your insanely diverse regional accents!
As a kid, lived in South Yorks and south Notts. ‘Ey up me duck’ Is definitely Nottingham, so ‘ey up’is not totally Yorkshire. We had a Snicket at the end of our cul-de-sac in Rotherham, S Yorks but a ginnel, with a hard g in South Notts.
Owt is a epitomised by that Yorkshire saying, “If tha ever does owt for nowt, allus do it fo’ thissen””
I live in ls10 I guess u live in LS11
Bradford an proud
I’m from South Yorkshire and I say snicket. Don’t know anyone that says ginnel
Either one for me it's what comes out first
