It is sooo funny listening to Beau say "dance Beau" in my accent - It's like listening to yourself on tape - cringe worthy but at the same time I'm proud that Beau's a janner. Priceless lol.

At this point you will post a description of what a "Janner" is!!!!! :ohmy: :laugh: :woohoo:

[Joolesgreyuk]

Oh dear Jill, that's like saying "what's a geordie?" Google it!

Love to hear it on tape Julie!! Must be priceless!

Well, being an american, I had to do a search on what a Janner is. I will not comment on it due to there being many definitions that pop-up.

 

I didn't bother to look up what a geordie is due to fearing the same numerous results. :-)

Ok Dan for your benefit:

 

a janner = someone from Plymouth/surrounding areas/coastal UK

 

a geordie = someone from Newcastle UK

 

Sheila is a scouser = someone from Liverpool.

 

When I say Beau is a janner I mean he talks with my accent. I'm one proud mum but I have to admit it sounds funny coming from a parrot lol.

How about simple definitions:

 

Janner is a British regional nickname associated with people from Plymouth or people who live in areas near the sea.

 

Geordies are people who come from the northeast of England.

 

Mystery solved!!!!

Ok, thanks for the one explanation for each. :-)

 

Seems it's rather like the cowboys, rednecks, hillbillies, okies, flatlanders etc. here in the USA.

 

Obviously, the Janners are the superiors there. Not trying to start a spat or anything. :whistle:
