Get the marramug. Cumbrian word for friend or 'mate'. Originates from the way marrows are grown in a field, lined up next to each other closely, as if they were friends.
Allrite Marra, hows ya doing?

Get the marramug. West cumbrian slang, roughly translates to 'Mate'. Highly underused word outside of the glorious Cumbria...Spread the word, its fucking great marra!

Get the Marramug. In the pit villages of the Durham Coalfield, marrowing was a system of bed-sharing agreed by two friends who were on opposite shifts. Your bed sharer was known as your marrow, or "marra", and the term then became synonymous with "mate".

Get the Marramug. Friend or mate. Used in greetings and to show respect to an equal, especially a fellow West Cumbrian.
An 'outsider' addressed as a marra should feel honoured and 'included' in what may be a select group.
