The Devon accent, it’s words and it’s
phrases, is one of the cornerstones of the
English language. From the Local
Yokels of The Two Ronnies comedy
show, to the gentle ‘burr’ heard by
millions of holiday makers over the
years, and the menacing tones of
Captain Barbossa in ‘Pirates of the
Caribbean’, the Devon accent pervades
both real-life and Hollywood.
If you ever enjoyed holidays in this
glorious part of Britain… if you’re
family are from Devon, or you have
relatives there…you’ll know the joy of
hearing odd words, or sayings. They
make life interesting… and if this is you, you'll
definitely enjoy this book.
