Pittsburgh has a language all it’s own.  Can a visitor figure out what the locals are saying?  Jersey Joe and Joel play the game of Know Your Pittsburghese ‘n at!

 

THE 411

Name: Pittsburghese

What: local dialect spoken in Pittsburgh and Western Pennsylvania

JERSEY JOE RECOMMENDS:

It’s a very unique accent that I’ve only really found in that area.  If you cross to Eastern PA and Philadelphia, they have a completely different accent and dialect.

It’s fascinating how various parts of our country have accents all of their own.  Maybe I should try this game in a southern state or two!!!
