Amn't

[Creed Malay]

My girlfriend (nelly) says 'amn't', it's adorable.

She's from the North-East of England, where a few Scottish terms (like bairns) survive.

I'm a Northerner too, and yes, we are adorable.
I've a fairly heavy accent, and frequently baffle people at AGS meets with my archaic terms when I forget to moderate my language. Far-Northern English does seem to hang on to quite a few odd and old terms and phrases, aye instead of yes, bairns for children, "why aye" for "yes, certianly!", and all kinds of others.
Non standard and near backwards syntax is common too. I know a few older people who still use Thee and Thou to show stres and irritation with whoever they're talking to.
Language is a funny thing, and it's pretty cute how accents seem to be reamining, dispite tv and movies and all, which you'd think would have left us all speaking identical and standard accent free.
Ta-ra for the now, me bonny lads and lasses.
