Children in Norfolk are to be taught about the local dialect.
Friends of Norfolk Dialect (Fond) has received a grant to teach youngsters, many of whom have moved into the county from elsewhere, the local tongue.
A project, called Lost in Translation, supported by Norfolk County Council, has received £24,600 from the Local Heritage Initiative.
The aim is to introduce understanding and appreciation of the dialect spoken by native people into 11 schools.
Under the scheme, the youngsters will work with artists to create exhibitions, performance pieces and dialect recordings to "reclaim" cultural heritage.
Spoken by natives
Fond chairman, Tony Clarke, said: "We want to give the Norfolk dialect a higher profile as an important part of the county's heritage.
"School pupils should be taught about the language spoken by their ancestors and the local people."
These are some examples of Norfolk words and expressions compiled by Norfolk journalist, writer and broadcaster Keith Skipper.
