Re: Is the Accy accent changing?
I think the way that people talk has changed - I dont know if it is the accent or as has been mentioned different use of slang -
I remember my elderly neighbours and how they used to talk it was what you would call broad lol
cup o'tai
goin ower t'hill
not many people talk like this in accrington now ( that i know of anyway ) but it did used to be "the norm"
as for petrol being called gas - some people do actually use gas not petrol.
so i dont know maybe it has changed over the years
