Local Dialect Translator

The Local Dialect Translator is the ultimate guide to the many weird and wonderful names for everyday items across the UK. If you're planning a trip to Devon, find out why you'll be called "my lover", or if Yorkshire is your destination, clue up on the name for a bread roll (it's a teacake).

Upvote or downvote each phrase to agree or disagree and find out the true way to say hello in the West Midlands and order a sandwich in Scotland.
