As an English teacher you should recognise that it's dialect rather than slang - not that that's any justification for her using itTheir own show ?! She can’t even speak English . She says “gan “ instead of “go”.
Irritates me more than it should ( I am an English teacher though )
Even the roughest from Geordie Shore like Sophie don’t use the common slang like she does
Would it not be a colloquialism?As an English teacher you should recognise that it's dialect rather than slang - not that that's any justification for her using it
It's pretty specific to Newcastle and not many other places, which makes it regional dialect first and foremostWould it not be a colloquialism?
I think subconsciously my brain just needed distracting from the fact that CRW is going to be on prime time TV#EnglishLanguageGate
I "think" it;s dialect. Gan has roots in from long ago viking/scandinavian influences in the area. It's not slang definitely. (If I remember what my husbands uncle used to tell me correctly, and indeed if he was right. Assume he was because he did some of his degree on the topic - but it was back in the early 70s) If you go to an scandinavian airport you can see inganned and ootgannen (or similar - totally going from memory which is lazy becauseI have the whole of google)Would it not be a colloquialism?
