Loc: Dublin, Ireland

chipped ham... we just call it "wafer thin".

I pick up accents really easily,which is why they when I came home from my summer in the states I spoke with an american twang, had odd English when I came home from Paris, and fifteen minutes talking to my friend from Cork has me lilting away goodo in a Cork sing-song accent!

I love hearing different phrases people use, and am especially interested in the way different dialects use verbs and tenses eg there are Irish people who constantly saw "I should have went" instead of "I should have gone" or "I done it" instead of "I did it".

I am going to listen to what people say tomorrow and post some interesting idioms!
