But I posted on Omegaowners.COM

even the Forum software agreeez with haw eye spelt it  :-[

edumacate. verb ; To provide with knowledge and/or skill, but used in very sarcastic manner only Apparent meaning: same meaning as the word “educate,” although this one, when used, adds a sarcastic tone to it. Type of word formation: Created via assimilation.

yep, I googled "edumacate " too, in case it refereed to popping round and shooting bad spellers like me  ;D :D

Indeed, down here in Kent any local accent has long disappeared, and is what I call a "non descriptive" sound that incorporates all the various nationalities we have amoungst us.

Love getting back to South East London where you can still hear the local versions of English! ;D ;D ;)

It is also great to get away to Yorkshire or Liverpool where the true local accents do survive, and are so much better than plain Southerner English! 8) 8) :D :)



The true Cockney accent has/is disappearing being replaced by the mockney, mixture caused by mass immigration from the colonies, "in'it"  but then to hear English being spoken within the M25 is becoming rare.

It is not just that.  True Cockney’s, many argue, are not now being born as the sound of Bow Bells cannot be heard above the noise around that part of the Eastend. Even at the local hospitals the bells cannot be heard above the almighty din of life. The area they cover has been shrinking fast over recent decades, and is now basically just the immediate area around the church.

So the real Cockney’s are fast disappearing, and the genre is becoming brown bread! :'( :'(

As this thread started with a question about English grammar, what are Cockney's ? The capital 'C' is arguable, but the grocer's apostrophe is wrong.
