I'm going to t'shops is not.

Even I know that, and I'm suvvener.
What a load of bollocks! Stick to what you know. "I'm going to t'shops" is exactly how we would say it in West Yorkshire.

Don't you know how to speak your own language? You made up this "t'" business and now you're getting it wrong. Do check the history of "t'" and how it came around I'm sure I could be wrong but I'm only going on what I've been told by t'yorkshire() lot. You make the rules how you **** opp t'queens inglish and all that, so do let us know which way you want it

It should read "I'm going t'shops".

t' = to the

Anyway, I thought norveners were 'ard *******s and not sensitive to little things like correcting how they speak

How we would actually say it is "am off tut
shops". Which would translate as "I am going to the shops".
