BILLINGE NO LONGER WIGAN

Mr. Malina, how do I contact you? I'm interested in the origins of this video.

If you Were Cheesed off by some Sudden Bad news We used to Say OWD MON ! AND STILL DO , from Spring View😂 ! Us PIE 8RS TALK PROPER POSH THA NORZ ! ANY ROAD IM GEWIN A WASHIN UP INT SLOPSTONE !😂😂

Oh music to my ears… gotta love Wigan my grandad spoke like this 😂

The Holt Arms or The Foot was my local for years

Ah wuz barn a’ Billinge ‘ospital

Is the use of the second person singular still used in everyday speech in Billinge as it is here in Barnsley, South Yorkshire ( and not just among older people)

There's not a lot mentioned about higher end ? No history about the hospital?

the translation was poor ie (she.s as ugly as sin ) should be as stated and a dolly tub is a washing tub that uses a dolly and a posser

I always fought Billinge people spoke more like Liverpool people.

very good i worked in appley bridge and baggin was brake time a lot of wigan was from liverpool and yorkshire such as jigger liverpool slang for alleyway and gengy meaning jumper i could go on but i think you will know most good vid

It's good word of advice, since younger generation has 10 months investigations. Hypoglycaemia low sugar lack of milk intake is genetic. They don't have deformity and physical disabilities. You look at the old hospital letters ! They couldn't put diagnosis because the person doesn't look deformed! Word of advice would if that person is looking generically normal, no physical disabilities. Don't cause a Speech delay, that can be hypoglycaemia low sugar lack of milk intake case which is genetic fit! Never say its happened on genetic looking person. They will go down for human rights action! It's the own fault the way they change the Billinge Hospital letter after 1934. They shouldn't mix the two fit's, they are two separate diagnosis!!

We are not interested at Billinge Hospital! Hypoglycaemia lack of milk intake is genetic fit, celebral palsy and physical disabilities is deformity. Epilepsy is more than one fit. Being discharged from a Speech Therapist is working like a genetic person! Hypoglycaemia lack of milk intake is to observed like a premature baby's. Your looking out for deformity and physical disabilities. Letters, pediatricians and consultants would of changed from 1934 to 1976. They put the wrong diagnosis onto people, some people from Wigan belong to Manchester, not just Wigan town centre itself!

When I met my scouse girlfriend she would say "talk normal will you" when I would say "T'other day" to her lol. She can talk can't understand her half the time lol.

The Wigan dialects are funny, but from what I've observed I think they are dying out and the local accent is dissappearing, probably due to the influx of "outsiders" from other areas like the south. I live in Ashton and all I hear are Mancs and scouse accents, I'd say Manc accents are very common around here for some reason. Noone talks like Fred Dibnah anymore (just using a good example lol), it's all "Hey guys" "Bye, see ya later" talk. I suppose it's because noone's working "down't pit" anymore.

Wiganers will always be the butt of other peoples jokes whilst they continue celebrating this stupid thick way of speaking - there’s nothing worth preserving when your accent makes you sound like a flat cap Victorian simpleton.

❤❤❤❤ sounds like my grandfather 😢

As a Wigan rugby fan for decades, I've amassed a load of friends in the borough. These videos are fantastic or "beltin'" as they say there!

i was born in billinge😁

There was a little bit of misinformation early in the story, and I hope it's just a hiccup because the rest of the video was excellent. The Norsemen invaded Ireland, it was Dames who came to England.

Song

As a Wiganer born and bred it always amazes me that in most other areas "moggies" are cats yet in Wigan moggies are mice.

As a wiganer this is a beltin documentary owd lad ! Deserves mooer views owd fettler

I'm a wiganer, this dialect has almost gone. The youngest generation all talk wi that silly pretend manc accent that the english rappers talk in. It's embarrassing

Thank you for uploading these. I was born in Billinge (now living in the US), but I've never been back. It's on my passport, yet I know so little about it. These videos helped. Thanks again!

Moggies is a cat

Another fantastic upload into this insight of Language thanks for these uploads

This an amazing insight and brief history of how language came about a he his a great presenter does anyone know what he his upto now great thanks for uploading all these parts

Saw this when it was uploaded few years ago never knew this language existed excellent video. Also when was this video done who is the presenter explaining the language and what it means and are any of these three men still alive.

My beautiful dialect - the opportunity’s to speak it are so thin these days even in Billinge you can be looked at like you have two heads for speaking it Dialect is so comfy it’s like slipping into warm Panama’s after a day in the rain My job is speaking all day on the phone and it’s like torture to come home and slip into that warming, Germanic tone Thank you for posting this

Alot of this is found in Preston aswell

Surely none speaks like this

It take all kinds to make a nation. No one people has ever owned a piece of land. 🍀

Wonderful! I love dialects. I have heard a few of these words in Canada. Sluch for mud, Pown for beaten, Bargein (heard this one in a pub in Montreal). Sluch is mostly mud with snow, Pounding hammer in extension a pounded thing is beaten up, I've heard: "He got pown in the alley." And for sure the bloke was beaten up. I have heard jiggert in the sense of tired once. You could tell it wasn't Canadian not Unitedstatian. We have Irish, Scottish and English diaspora in Canada, Montreal is very cosmopolitan.

Oh man this is a treasure. Thanks for uploading

Although I was born in St Helens my grandad was from Brynn, and hearing "Wiganese" brings great warmth to my heart!.

In Sheffield, (part of the West Yorkshire dialect) some of these words mean different things To threeap means to try to win in an argument, screik means to shriek And hoo does mean she but the regular pronoun is shoo A brat is a child's pinafore rather than an apron (the word for that being appron)

Hav just shit canna

So if I understand it well, Gary couldn't get the condom on and so his Wife Marie had to pop down the petrol station to buy some extra large.

Mother's side of the family is Mather descended from Richard. They lived at Claremont on Main Street. Spent lots of time there when growing up. I miss those days.

I'm sure that the one wearing glasses is Tony Case - he ran Whitesides estate agents in Main Street Billinge in the 80's.

Aye that Jerry Tigurts a Rum un oreet. Ainscoughs Reet when e say that ees nangy. Teempt tell im sling yer ook. Ees geet goo wom after some jackbit though, meyt and prater pies speyk t'thee when thas clempt.

I don't know where Wigan fits in with this dialect. The Wigan accent and dialect is a million miles from what you depict in this 'series'. But, hey-ho, whatever.

brilliant video

Who is the man presenting?

fehh might be related to feo/feio in Spanish and Portuguese?
