Hey yinz guys... I'm dahn in the cellar warshin' clothes and enjoying your video! Gonna run the sweeper, redd up the haus and go warsh the car. Gotta be careful out there 'caus the roads are slippy! Gonna get some groceries later and fill my buggy. Companies comin' over. After all that I'm meeting Bob n' em dahntahn for dinner n' at... Gotta remember to put the rubbich aaht tonight. 5th generation Pittsburgher here... 😁
Yeah and I remember rubbish, garbage were two different things rubbish you can burn. Like paper wrappers and milk cartons. Garbage you cannot it's mostly metal and food scraps. 73
Yin's got to hear this. He he gumband instead of rubber band, even at a young age like 4 years old " two wones for a pair. My nephew when he was 4 or so it was two sa em for two items. And of course Dahntahn for Down Town. Jagger for that dandelion type of thisle. Step on one in your yard bare foot and you know it. Some called it a Jagger bush but i always just called it a Jagger. Nebby for someone that cannot mind their own business. Chipped ham for thin sliced ham jumbo for bologna. Crick for creek. Jagoff for jerk. Pixburgh for Pittsburgh. Oh and lest not forget let go up to mount whershington to see the whole city of pixburgh. Mount Washington grand view avenue. Go there if you visit Pittsburgh. Also come through the fort pitt tunnels and see the city. 73
I dont live directly in Pittsburgh but i live close enough. I understand everything and its hilarious to see people trying. They did their best though.
I never left the Pittsburgh area until I went to school in Indiana after high school. When someone asked me if I was from Western PA, I said, “Yes. How could you tell?” “Your accent,” they said. “I don’t have an accent,” I replied. I soon learned the truth. 😂
My pony trick for family Thanksgiving in middle West Virginia: My son (who used to live in Bloomfield) and I strike up a conversation in Pittsburghese. Kills every time.
Pittsburgh is WEIRD. It's the largest city in Appalachia (connecting it with the SOUTH) BUT geographically it is in the NORTH EAST, and YET Culturally it's MIDWEST, It's NO WONDER she has her own language! In Pittsburgh one can get a Hoagie and a glass of POP. In Philly this would be a Hoagie and a SODA. In Chicago this would be a SUB and a glass of POP. Pittsburgh is just a "mashup" of regions that "Don't fit the narrative"
Yinzer is actually a dialectical variant of Scots English. If you go to Ayrshire in Scotland, you can find people who say "dahn 'er" and "'n'at" to this day. And kudos to your partner. You can't find a more Pittsburgh Ulster Scots name than that. Or should I say "d'nat"? ;)
I lived in the South Hills a couple times in my life (through elementary school and then as a young adult). Maybe because I lived in the suburbs and/or because we moved to the Midwest, but I never ever spoke like that. But I do understand Piitsburghese and enjoyed this video.
I too have live in the South Hills born & raised (44yrs) and don't speak this way. The only thing I say is yinz. Most of the people I talk to don't either. I believe a lot of it is forced, or to be funny.
My manager is from Texas and made from of me on my interview for saying ratiator instead of radiator. I told him he needs to learn the language he’s been here three years
I grew up in the Sahside Flats and never once heard someone say yunz instead of yinz. I know there r areas that say yunz just not in Sahside, in my experience.
As a country boy about 45 min north of the Burgh I always got the impression that yunz'ers are the hillbillies of Piksburgh . We say roogh for roof worsh for wash, and its always slippy never slippery. The list goes on we don't even pronounce the football team right, its the Steelers, but we gotta say Da'Stilers. It's kinda awful hilarious n'@ sometimes.
@@scottbick4654I lived part time in the saside just think of flashlight. When I was four and five years old I didn't know where I lived but I knew conneaut lake was that's where the pixburgh people spent their summers. Sure bring back memories.
I’m a native Pittsburgher but have lived away from the city 10 years longer than I lived there. I can still do a fair approximation of Yinzer, but it’s hard work. I never had much of a Yinzer accent to begin with, though…
I used tu. Get reddy and red up your room I'm briggin the sweeper up there. How many more words did I forgit. My phone keeps correcting my pixburgh talk. 73
i love the random pittsburgher that had to translate LOL
In his Steelers gear no less. It is required by law when traveling dahn-err
me too!

Dont forget the gumbans, jumbo, and chipped ham when you go to the Igle for those groceries!

I'm a Pittsburgher who lived in Lubbock for a bit. I loved doing stuff like this.

“Your accent,” they said. “I don’t have an accent,” I replied. I soon learned the truth. 😂
In Scradden PA, it’s “Jeet yet?” “No, joo?”

LOL this was great
Yes. Jyeet jyet, yeet jyet, or jeweajyet all translates = did you eat yet. Ovadeer = it's over there. It actually can differ among race as well lol.
Pittsburgheze. Only Pittsburghers can speak it.
My manager is from Texas and made from of me on my interview for saying ratiator instead of radiator. I told him he needs to learn the language he’s been here three years
its like theyre trying to speak a different language. they wouldn't know what to do in pixburgh
I am in the minority,
But I say " Yunz ".
Being that was the Southside way.
Back ehen I waz growin up.
Love my Pittsburghese !

We said Yunz in Millvale when I was growing up.

I never thought I did either until I moved to Arizona.

5 potato chips were on a mountain and 4 jumped off. Why didn't the fifth jump? It was a wise potato chip.
Thank you Matt for everything! Here’s a little something for you: ua-cam.com/video/Y7ggw365lYI/v-deo.html
I’d read more comments but I have to go red up.
🔥
