Sheffielders are very fond of the idiosyncratic collection of words and phrases that are only used by those living in the Steel City.
However, the distinctive Sheffield dialect is becoming less commonplace, and it is in danger of dying out if those living in the city do not use it regularly.
With that in mind, we asked Star readers to share their favourite Sheffield word or phrase in a bid to preserve them for generations to come.
We received over 600 hundred suggestions, and we have narrowed it down to 13, which you can view below.
