Ee Up Lad! - A Salute to the Yorkshire Dialect

£7.99
Maximum quantity available reached.

IT'S NITHERING COWLDINEAR … GI US MEGANSEY … SGONA SILEIT DOWN … PUT WOODINT OIL … WASSAMARRER WI IM … YONS ASFINE ASAFARTWIA FRILL ON.

Ee Up Lad! is a treasure trove of folk history and vivid expressions found in the Yorkshire dialect.

Kicking off with an A-Z of Yorkshire words and phrases, you'll discover the meaning of everything you need to pass as a genuine Tyke. Did you know there's an old Yorkshire word for the big toe? It's thrummleteea, in case you're wondering. And another brilliant one for an obstacle or misfortune? That'll be jubberty.

And if anyone ever describes you as being as soft as a boiled tonnap, don't be fooled into taking it as a compliment. They're more likely questioning your mental acuity.

Packed with illustrations throughout, the book also contains the local take on nursery rhymes, a look at the influence of Yorkshire mining tradition, a collection of old Yorkshire sayings and wisdom, and much more besides.

This is a brilliant insight into the county's unique take on the English language, capturing the warmth and humour of Yorkshire folk. 

Len Markham has been entertaining readers with books about his native county for many years. These include Ten Yorkshire Mysteries, Tales of West Yorkshire, Yorkshire Privies and Pub Walks in North Yorkshire.
