Learning the Yorkshire Dialect
With Three of Seven
scientia potentia est
Hello students,
Today, we will be doing your first lesson in the Yorkshire dialect, to help you understand how to use certain well known words, phrases, and sentence structure. We will be starting with one of the staples of the Yorkshire dialect, and that is t', which is sometimes used in the wrong way by those who don't understand the Yorkshire dialect, so I will help you avoid these pitfalls.
This is the sentence we will be using: I am going to put on the telly.
The common error when it comes to using t' is that some people believe it just replaces the word the, so someone trying to emulate a Yorkshire person, not knowing this, might say.
I am going to put on t'telly.
This is incorrect, as, if we convert it back, becomes "I am going to put on to telly.", or "I am going to put on to the telly.", both of these are incorrect uses of standard English. T' can be a substitute for "to the" as well, such as with the sentance "I am going to the hospital." you could say "I am going t'hospital.", although this example isn't correct because of other things we shall learn in later lessons, but for now, you can accept t'hospital means to the hospital.
So let's go back to our original example sentance I am going to put on the telly., and now let's make it Yorkshire.
I am going t'put on telly.
We drop the full "the" before "telly", and condense everything into "t'put", now this could come out as "I am going to the put on telly." if you don't fully understand the context, but we now understand that we expand the t, and put in the before the subject.
If you want the full Yorkshire phrase, it would be "Am goin' t'put on telly.", the benefit to this is that it uses less characters, so takes less time to speak, and in the modern age, allows you to Tweet more.
Hopefully you have learnt something today,
Prof. Three of Seven

Learning the Yorkshire Dialect
With Three of Seven
scientia potentia est
Hello students,
Today, I have for you your second lesson, all about the letter "h", I am here to tell you, it's not really that important, a word starting with the letter means the same thing without it. Dropping the h also helps when forming other sentances in Yorkshire, and allows for better flow of language.
These are some example words: Hospital, Helicopter, Here, Hear, Hello.
These all convert into: 'ospital, 'elicopter, 'ere, 'ear, 'ello.
So we can put these into a sentence, like this "Get over 'ere and get in 'elicopter, we're going t'ospital t'get your 'earing checked." and this translates into "Get over here and get into the helicopter, we are going to the hospital to get your hearing checked." and in future sessions, we we learn how to make these sentences even more Yorkshire, but for now, that is your lesson for today.
Hopefully you have learnt something today,
Prof. Three of Seven

Close, but it'd be "Get on t'orse", effectivly becoming one word.
