During my first trip to England I heard “innit” used in unexpected places in a sentence and I was totally confused.

You get up in the morning and have BREAKFAST. Then around midday you have DINNER. At 5 or 6ish you have TEA, then before bed you have SUPPER.

SIMPLE INNIT.

[Red Willow]

So at the start of every sentance.

Skedule rather than shedule (for Schedule)

going forward

When you go to  the pub for roast beef, roast spuds, yorkshires and all the veg what is it called?

Excuse me Mr Waiter bloke, where's the gravy?

And who ever heard of a Sunday dinner without mint sauce.

If my Mam was still about, she'd be wanting a word.

I hope you're happier. Gravy and stuffing

Thought that the 'ickenham' in this case was prounounced 'att' like that place in Orkney.

I've always found 'slag' when applied to women to be an utterly awful term.

I agree. That is SO bleedin' annoying.

[Hopping Mad]

Serious news/current affairs bulletins/programmes being referred to as 'shows'.

Last week, a flak-jacketed, helmeted Clive Myrie, reporting from war-torn 'Keev', said: "And more of that later in the show." Whaaaaat?

Almost all the guff uttered by TV weather forecasters:

'more especially'

'the overnight period'

'the sun will rise in the morning'

'wind chill factor'

'temperature values'

'rainfall'

[Bearman]

Anyone putting the stress on the last syllable in lake district names instead the first especially furNESS. Its FURness, PENrith and BOWness

Hanging is too good for 'em

Alluded to really annoys me now and I almost exclusively hear it used by RL pundits. Brian Noble was the first some years ago and now it seems an unwritten rule that every pundit must have alluded to something.

[RoyBoy295]

'Yous', a Mancunian word for 'You'. I always look round to see who else they talking to when he/she is just talking to me.

[JohnM]

As a Mancunian  born and bred,  I'd say "Yous"was more of an Americanism.
