    I strongly disagree with this one. I can't think of a single person I grew up with (in Barnsley) who said anything other than mum.


    My input for this thread is "wifey". As in "nice evening wiv tha wifey xxx". Makes my skin crawl.

    Usually the first or only person to use it in a meeting tends to be a ***** in my experience.

    I’m currently at dungeness power station and since the news was made public that we are to start decommissioning soon we’ve had meeting after meeting and the new saying down here is let’s visualise the next chapter of our nuclear life driving me mad every time I hear it

    The use of the words 'fam' & 'blood' instead of mate, or british people talking like they are jamacan is laughable really.

    Woke, snowflake and gammon are pretty high on my list at the moment.
    The phrase, I won't lie, is up there as well.

    I find using the word “Massives” avoids having to use it in a football context and “Midweek” in all others.

    Cleans up the vocabulary nicely.

    Do you find a lot of people unable to pronounce nuclear?
    They seem to pronounce it. "New kill her"
