Do people chunter that they can't understand you?
Don't worry, you won't be labelled a 'gump' if you haven't heard all these Lincolnshire words and phrases, but you will certainly have more chance than the 'frim folk'.
For those Yellowbellies who haven't translated yet, gump means fool and frim folk are people from another area. The Lincolnshire dialect is said to have derived from the Anglo Saxon language, mainly due to the agricultural background of the county. So put on your 'kecks' and, if you're not too 'throng' , let's go on a 'wick' adventure to find out about more Lincolnshire words and phrases. Maybe go out into the Lincolnshire Wolds, walk through the 'kelch' and 'proggle', which means to poke about .
There are plenty more Lincolnshire words too if you're not going to 'jiffle' too much to pay attention. How many of these do you know?
