Some Scottish (Glaswegian) and Geordie (North East England) accents may as well be Latin to me

My wife speaks what we call "Estuary Engish": for her a mountain is a "man-tin". She says "Wiw-yuh" instead of "will you", "chocklit" instead of chocolate. But the one I tease her about most is the the word 'roll'. I have a job even writing down the way she says it... she's the same with saying 'poll' or 'doll' and so are the rest of her family... but she says something like "Rah-wl"

And if you make her jump she'll yell "Gawd-un Bennit!"
