I've never had much patience with people who say or imply "nobody says that" based on a very limited sample space, especially when I've seen or heard something myself. :rolleyes:

Usually it's someone from outside the region telling me some phrase or grammar is wrong when I've gotten it straight from the horse's mouth.

There's always more to a language than the little subset of it we may have encountered personally.

And yes, in case you haven't guessed, such statements as "I've never heard ..." are a pet peeve of mine. :LOL:


Go dtugaidh Dia foighid dhuit ! :bash:
