"We go down a snicket or a ginnel, which is another word maybe for a back alley. We sken or have a dekko at, which means to look at or to see things..."

A clip from our #Vocies2016 visit to #Rochdale.

"It's like a tapestry, I think... the way you speak is a combination of bits you've accidentally picked up along the way, by the way other people speak."

We're looking forward to returning to #Tameside in 2021, and chatting to people about language and identity! #TamesideHour

"Not necessarily the accent, but the way people act and the friendliness... it's sometimes frowned upon in other areas."

"It's like a tapestry, I think... the way you speak is a combination of bits you've accidentally picked up along the way, by the way other people speak. And it's not a conscious thing, I think you just soak it up."

From our #Voices2016 pilot study.
