While we were in Philadelphia I came across a book that teaches you how to speak Philadelphian aka talking Philly! The book was actually very funny and I had so much fun trying to say the words that I thought it might be fun to share. So here is lesson one on how to speak Philly! See pictures to the right for added help. “Did you eat yet?” = “Jeet?” City Hall is pronounced Siddy Haw. Crayons are pronounce Crowns and wishing someone a Happy Birthday is Happy Birt-day. Radiator is
Rad-e-actor and a Library is a Liberry. Practice those words and soon you will sound like a Philadelphian too. Look for lesson two tomorrow!
