Ok, I'd managed to change my settings somehow. Now I can see them!I can't see the latest replies for some reason.![]()
It's usually the accent I find. Somehow, the accent of most sailors seems very similar to that of Norfolk.
We end up leaving the pronunciation of certain letters out of words, like:
* Hadn't/havent - hant (and not pronouncing the t properly if at all)
* Wouldn't - woont
* Isn't - int
* Didn't - dint
Extras:
* Home - hoom
* right- roit
* alright - a'rite
* What's that - whassat
It's a funny old world.

I am also from the UK, but I live in Scotland. Nowhere near you, eh? :P Everyone here mocks me for being Scottish. ;_; So, I understand your pain of being called a carrot cruncher. I guess. xD
