"I'm broad Oldham and proud of it."

A clip from our #Voices2016 pilot study. In 2021 we'll be visiting #Oldham again with our #AccentVan, to learn more about Oldham language and the people who live there.

"#Bury, #Rochdale, #Oldham, #Tameside...they're all different #dialects."

From our #Voices2016 pilot study.

We'll be touring the ten boroughs of Greater Manchester, and learning more about how these dialects differ, in 2021.

@VoicesMcr @RobDrummond lovely clip (I live about 800 yards from #HurstCross) The #Ashtonian accent has really changed since I was at school over 40 years ago. It's becoming more #Mancunian and less #Lancastrian
