a few examples for those who have never been to Glace Bay:
"whatchat by?" translation: "how are you?"
"tha' thing down ther' over ther'." translation: usually they want you to go get them something and can't seem to use proper englsih words to identify it
"gimma beer by" translation: "I and too lazy to get off my ass and walk the 10 feet to the fridge to grab a beer so could you do it for me"
"you kiss good, by" translation: ...you get the gist of this one hahaha (this was what the first guy I ever kissed said to me 4 years ago, Lol)
and not only is my family Nova Scotian they are a military family. I think all my uncles are in the army and about a quater of my aunts so we get military references left and right. I swear we need our own dictionary.
oh and for those who don't know by is how we refer to people. by=buddy minus the udd
