You weren't included in the long-running discussion following your comment -- we're all confused by "Turkshar", even John-Bob, our resident expert (tho' even I recognise that it must be some shire in England, of which there are plenty).

All those comments are slang?

No Malburg - not slang - but the dialect used by folk (people) from Yorkshire (known as God's own County).

My comment was to iogurte's use of the word leking - which is an old Yorkshire word for playing - so I was questioning if he / she was from Yorkshire as well.

Now then - I'm with you on that - perhaps you're from God's own as well?

Na then (Now then) - Ahm (I'm) wi (with) thi (thee/you) on that - happen (perhaps) tha's fro (you're from) God's oown (own) an all (as well)?

Ah! Some words I imagine what they may mean, but some others I didn't understand, and they're not in de translator. Thank you.

Maburg (29 August 2023, 15:18) complain
May be the comment of iogurte was something like "stop playing by my side"?
Excuse me, but I'm very curious about languages.

No problem - let me explain from the top
The solution to the puzzle is an ear - I made the first comment:
"In Yorkshire this is known as a lug oil"
A lug is something that sticks out from the main body of an object (as in the image of a wing nut below) so a wing nut has lugs.
Ears stick out from your head so they are "lugs in slang"
I wrote "lug oil" - oil is the way that "hole" is pronounced in Yorkshire - so "lug oil" = ear hole.
Onono replied with "I ear yer." He was trying to write "I hear you" in Yorkshire dialect (where the "H" at the beginning of a word is not pronounced) - with a pun on the words ear & hear.
iogurte added,
"Cut the leking abart me lad". = "Stop playing about my man" = "Don't play the fool" = "Be sensible"

PART 2

And then:
"Naw, fro Turkshar blod an bone. Tha'ssen?" - Turkshar has me confused - what he / she writes sounds like a good Yorkshire dialect
"Naw," = NO
"fro" = from
"blod an bone" = blood and bone (meaning him / her)
"Tha'ssen?" = Yourself? (Tha = You, sen = self).
"Turkshar" - I'm guessing Turkey - but why would someone from Turkey be fluent in the Yorkshire dialect?
Hope this helps somewhat Maburg?
And now a test for you!
Wheres tha fro Maburg? - If you can answer this correctly - you will be classed as being a honorary Yorkshire person (a very great award)!
