Hair lair,  I disagree with the micky taking of the Marster.......

(Forgot to add a nudge nudge, wink wink, before I get bemoaned at)

I bemoaneth not  

Renton, it may be because I am Scottish, but I see no difference between Marster and Maaster....apart from the spelling of course.

Any chance you can define it differently?

Marster = UK   

Masster = US 

may be.

Thank gawd for that 

One of my favourite Scottish sayings is, "Haud yer wheesht!", which means "Be quiet!".

Interpreted as.......Shut your Cakehole....

Far Kinnell. 

Howay man! Give ower 

Oh my giddy aunt

Gawd luv us and save us!

Divven't dee that man! 

Spraken De Deutch?

Also gaan canny means go careful 

        means here! don't do that (We tend to put man on the end of a lot of sentences)

Negative ones only I expect         xx 

Doing/saying that is like an exclamation 

Dithered and chittered means cold 

I still think that's a howl! 

I know (or think I know) you're trying to indicate a difference in the way the 'A' is pronounced. but I don't know what that difference is.

Its just as SUZYBEAN sed ....

its Marrrster = UK

Maaster = USA pronounciation

You can see the influence of Irish and Scottish in the American accent

I don't know if I can help but to me maaster is pronounced like mass and marster is pronounced like the first part of marsh. *Shuts up now in case she makes it more complicated* 

That's why I typed them 

Ah divven nah weet yee on aboot canny bairn

Cakehole is too polite, it's "shut yer gub"

SPROUT you are bang on the munny

Fellow Geordie - respect due

Course ya dee!    Yuh aalreet?  

Oh oh I have got this............ I don't know what you are on about knowing baby........

Mostly, although the knowing bit I'm not sure of, canny means (to me anyway) nice, pleasant etc.

That part's right Syd, but the other part is just a phrase that we use. I don't really know if it means anything 

What does Canny lass mean?

"Fair Scunnered "  at not getting any lotto numbers !

That means nice girl 

Am gaan tuh the bog  

I think I remember a song about a "Canny Lass"..I think it meant she was cute...

I think that in the South we think of Canny as "Knowing"....

But what do I know?  

Make sure you wash your hands afterwards 

Thanks for sharing 

If I heard someone say that I would think they meant she was a nice girl.

I would be too, but I've still got mine to check
