Bristolian Speak

During your stag party in Bristol you’ll need to talk like the locals! So here are a few hints and tips to help you blend in!
Brizzle – as it’s known to the locals – has it’s own distinct local dialect. Fans of Little Britain’s “Yeh-but-no-but” Vicky Pollard will already be familiar with the dulcet tones of the Bristolian accent! Here’s a quick guide to how to speak Bristolian!

‘Awwright me babber’ or ‘Awwright me luvver’ (Alright my friend?) are Bristolian greetings.
You could then add ‘Ow biss’ which means ‘how are you?’
If you need to ask where something is just ask ‘Where’s it to?’ (where is it?) or if you like something just say it’s ‘gert lush’.
A few others are:
Yer tiz Here it is
Innit Isn’t it
Wern it Wasn’t it
Ant Hasn’t
