Local Sayings? What are yours?

The "food only available..." thread got me thinking about other things that are different based on location.

So I ask you this: what are some local sayings or pronunciations or language quirks from where you are from?

I'll start with two from Montreal:

-Instead of saying terrace people say "tare-ass" (tare pronounced like care")

-Any combo at a fast-food restaurant is called a trio, not combo. For some reason this bugs me!

Pittsburgh has so many I don't even know where to start lol. It even has it's one name Pittsburghese! Here's a few of them:

Gumband= Rubber band

Nebby= a nosy person

Pixburgh= Pittsburgh

Souside= South Side

Yinz= all of you

PITTSBURGHESE .com

I'm from Newfoundland, so I have a LOT! There's even a Newfoundland dictionary lol Like a yaffle is an armful, and anything we can't remember the name of becomes a chummyjigger, "How are you doing?" Is never used, instead we say "How's ya gettin' on?", oh, and "Stay where yer to 'til I comes where yer at!". We don't pronounce the letter h at the beginning of words, most words automatically have an added s at the end, and there are no g's at the end of anything lol Just look on google for newfie slang and you'll see what I mean

I have so many newfie clients for some reason. I absolutely love the weddings, such a party!

Well, most Newfoundlanders originated from Ireland or Scotland, so there's guaranteed to be alcohol and LOTS of dancing lol Not necessarily GOOD dancing, but definitely dancing lol

as long as they aren't drinking screech! Wow that stuff is crazy

I live in between Baltimore and D.C. so here are a few:

Balmer-Baltimore

Hon- this is with an emphasis on the O and sounds like a heavy un...something you say to anyone you see..."hey hon"

Rum= room

Brum= broom

yous= I'm assuming you all

Q is pronounced like it has an r in it....crew (that one always cracks me up!)

And D.C. you just have to figure out all of the acronyms

I wanted to add that I do not talk like this, but that these are some of the sayings of the natives.

The one thing I do say that I know is wrong is pank for pink...got it from when I lived in Mississippi.

I'm from NY. I think there is plenty out there on TV and movies to give an idea how we talk.

Hmmm, I am from Philly, so I am sure there are plenty, but I am blanking! I will check back later.

i love when people from places i've never been explain their sayings/accents. it helps me picture how everyone sounds/speaks when i'm "listening" your writing!

i'm from the PNW, and as far as i know, we dont say anything "weird". (ok, unless you are from somewhere that does have cool accents/sayings and thinks our are weird!) about as blah as you can get. doug and i always joke how you never hear our "accents" on movies or shows, no one thinks its interesting enough to write into a storyline. oh well! i mean really, can anyone please tell me what a "seattle accent" sounds like? B-O-R-I-N-G!
