Dialect words used in Hull

Saturday, July 31st, 2010

Simon Green of Hull has very kindly and expertly compiled a fascinating list of dialect words used in Hull and given permission for us to use it within our research and publish it on the blog. This document arose in response to an interesting conversation we had a few weeks ago. Rachel and I were stumbling over a number of curious local terms such as tenfoot (back alleyway) and more familiar words that had alternative meanings in Hull such as fussy (to be pleased. eg: ‘she was really fussy about your present’).

Return to Hull

Saturday, July 24th, 2010

I am heading back up to Hull next week. I’ll be interviewing more cyclists, spending time with the Critical Response Unit officers (that would be ambulance workers or ambo’s to you and I) who get around town by bicycle, re-visiting the Hull History Centre and taking a few more Bike Portraits. I’m looking forward to it.
