janner

I believe the above have been mistaking 'janners' for swillys the sub-chav species of moronic, burberry wearing, arses that parade our streets and give all us Plymouthian inhabitants a bad name.

Now, a janner, as will be correctly stated by one who was born and lives here, is a term used by most outsiders to describe the people who live in Plymouth, Devon.

Not to be mistaken for a swilly which is actually a sub-species here and should be wiped out very quickly. For further infomation on these rodents see chav.

Swilly: Ere bey! You startin! I'm gonna ave ya, ya Goff twat.

Normal Janner: Fuck off.....(runs away)

Jannely

Jannely is a gorgeous girl with beautiful hair that shines in the daylight, but mysteriously black at night. Her personality is wild and has a thing for memes, but doesn’t always show it. She can be the most awkward person you will ever meet as she tries to get away by crawling under a table or scoots away in a chair but soon falls over. Her creativity is astonishing by her creating art of her kind. She is one heck of a character

Person: Hey is that your girlfriend Jannely?

Person 2: Yea! She is amazingly cute!

janner

A word often misused to describe a Plymouth resident or a chav from Plymouth, "Janner" is actually used through out Devon and Cornwall, normally to refer to farmers or people from local families with thick Westcountry accents and traditional outlooks - comparable with the American "Hilly billy" or "Redneck".

The word is rumoured to derive from the fact that many locals are called John, but when asked their name will say "Moi namez Jaaan"

Whilst Janner is a blanket term to refer to anybody with strong local origins, a farmer can also be called a "Bez"

There is a simple test to see whether or not someone is a Janner - ask the the name of a small castle town on the Devon / Cornwall border. A non Janner will say "Launceston", while the true Janner will reply "Laanson".

"Has youz met ol' Jan Smith fram Oke'ampton way? Ez a roit ol' janner"

"An old Janner just drove past in his muckspreader, and now I'm covered in cow shit"

janner

As well as the other meanings of the word janner, 'janner' can also refer to the dialect of English spoken in Plymouth. As well as pluralising everything, anything that ends in an -le sound is pronounce -oe. Anything with a hard 'u' in it (such as the f-word) is pronounced as an o (f*ck becomes 'fock' for example)

'Ere ya focking cont I'm goin Dingoes to buy a focking doeby digitoe stereo' roughly translates to 'Hello there mate. I'm going to Dingles to buy a Dolby Digital stereo'.
