Sorry 'bout that, I had to take care of a few clients. J'avo pas l'timps de t'causer un cht'i plus!

YESSS!!! I love that clip, seen it loadsa times before, but die laughing every time.

Good God! What on earth are they saying?

<didn't understand a word>

If I get a bit of time later, I'll try and write exactly what they're saying.

Key word here is "carette", meaning a car.

[QUOTE=sdale100;5483893]Oh la la, here we go. We're heading into dangerous waters now. Picard and Cht'i are both Northern dialects belonging to the "Langue d'Oil", as opposed to "Langue d'Oc" in the south, but in no way are they the same.

[QUOTE=tery little;5503394] Be careful, you have cut the end of quote tag off. ;-))

It is enjoyable though. I can see that it might seem an unimportant thing at times but regional differences are one of the real pleasures of the French language. Here I was being told a story that had the man telling it in stitches about something said to him by someone with a slightly different dialect. But you're absolutely right the thing to do is not to worry for make mistake

yes no try, no progress.

MERCI BEAUCOUP

Tery, as this is the aim of this thread, do you know any words or idiomisms from whatever form of dialect that may exist in your neck of the woods?

OK, finally got round to it, not too hard though, believe me this IS soft. This is going to take up some space but here's the transcription of the link left by Novocastrian.
