Sorry by question 4. I am referring to a singular word.

But who really cares?
I'm from Essex but hate hate hate the Estuary vowels so try very hard to speak nicely.

Love the Norn Iron accent

Never really the Yorshire accent (apologies in advance...)

I do use some rhyming slang sometimes like "I'll take a butcher's and let you know". (That doesn't really sit well with point 1 does it?)
