From our own unique words, to those little things that we own and recognise that would go right over the heads of those not lucky enough to have lived or been brought up here, here are 12 tell-tale signs that someone is from Sheffield.
5. They never roll back on a hill start
With the city said to be built on seven hills, and with some of the steepest streets in the country, every driver in Sheffield masters the motoring manoeuver that is the hill start right from the beginning. Some from other, flatter, towns, may find them tricky, but not us here in Sheffield with the number we have to do. We don't roll back! Photo: Google
6. They've got a snow shovel
When it snows in Sheffield it really snows. And with hills we've got, it spells trouble if we don't shift it. So one of the most common things in our sheds is a decent snow shovel. Photo: Sheffield Newspapers
7. Hendersons on the shelf
It's been made in Sheffield since the 1880s, and it's loved by those in the city with a passion. While others may use Worcester sauce, it's Hendos every time in Sheffield. If you see a bottle of this fine delicacy on their shelf, chances are they're from Sheffield. Photo: Simon Hulme
8. They smile when Leeds lose
There's been a saying in Sheffield. That's: "We hate Leeds and Leeds and Leeds." While Owls and Blades fans are always happy to see each others' teams beaten, they are also more than Happy to see Leeds United fail. PA Photo: Rui Vieira. Photo: RUI VIEIRA
