Did I mention: richer than down South and not all farmers. But, because I find it hilarious, I don\'t mind the name too much even though it\'s incorrect, possibly resulting from too many non-Northerners not doing a proper Northern accent properly. Which makes this even funnier. Some Lancastrians (a.k.a. wussies to the rest of the North) probably say it like that. Yeh, they\'re like a more wussy and chavvy version of Corrie and the rest of the North is like a not-so-much-farming version of Emmerdale. [[SarcasmMode Also, everywhere is called -dale when you\'re not in Lancashire]], and that\'s sarcastic in I\'m saying it, not I\'m subtlely trying to get at people who believe that. All the places have generally ancient etymology, with the exception of places that weren\'t named until recently and so have blatant names (e.g. a little village called \'Triangle\' because it\'s shaped like a triangle).

We also say \\\'eh\\\' (not as much as [[CanadaEh those from Canadia]] - we call it \\\'\\\'Canadia\\\'\\\', alright!) and mush words together. And have our own language. Yes, not only are there ump-trillion-and-odd accents going around, there\\\'s also half that many languages.
