Pittsburghese is what we call it. It's that special language-within-a-language that is unique to Pittsburgh. Oh sure, people in Boston and Brooklyn and Tupelo talk "funny" too. But Pittsburghese is different. Pittsburghese is words that don't seem to exist anywhere else, words that we think we've heard elsewhere(but we're not quite sure), and of course, those special Pittsburgh-only words. Some people might call it a dialect. Others may call it regional English. But to all of us, it's just plain Pittsburghese. Here, for your edification and amusement is a dictionary of Pittsburghese Ya FUCKING RIGHT!!!!

Dude I don't live that far away so I understand everything. Looks to me like you guys pronounce lots of stuff like the Irish.

It is some strange alien force that affects all human minds below the line?  :mrgreen:
