| | lernin' yerself scouse - the language of Liverpool (Site not responding. Last check: ) |
 | | Firstly here is Fritz Spiegel's explanation of what scouse actually is, from his mini book (pronounced boook!) entitled Lern Yerself Scouse, published by Scouse Press Liverpool 1984 edition, first published in 1965 at the height of the "Mersey Boom" in the music world. |
 | | Scouse, unlike most dishes, derived from a place or origin, was born out of abject poverty. |
 | | However, we may safely conclude that the origin of Scouse is to be found in some ships galley on the high seas, it matters little which nationality, as sailors had a habit of giving international status to their songs, yarns and certainly, their diseases. |
