What’s this? Yes, it’s a jam It’s interesting to listen to

south of England, you might
call it a jam sarnie. In some
places in Scotland, it’s a jeely
piece. But if someone in
Manchester wanted to buy a
jam sandwich, they’d ask for a
jam butty!
So butty means sandwich, right? Wrong.
In some places in the west of England, a butty is a
friend. In the north of England, you might hear the
words la or marra for ‘friend’, and in Cornwall in the
south, a friend is often called a pard.
people complaining, gossiping
or arguing in different parts of
the country. What would you
think if someone called you
narky or mardy? Both of these
words mean ‘grumpy’ or ‘in a bad
mood’. If you travelled around the
north of England, you’d probably hear both of these
words. If you were in Birmingham and you started
to cry, someone might tell you to stop blarting. But
if you were in the north of England, they might tell
you to stop beefing!

Lots of dialect words are disappearing because people forget them. So it’s interesting to
discuss dialects with older people to find out what they can remember. Ask them what
words they used when they were children, and try to translate them! You could try using
some of the words with your friends, and make sure they don't disappear completely!

2 Read the text. Then match 1–6 with a–f to make sentences.
1 If you and a friend had different accents, a you’d probably be in the west of England.
2 If you and a friend spoke different dialects, b you’d be crying.
3 If you lived in Manchester, c you’d pronounce words differently.
4 If you talked to your butty, d you’d be in a bad mood.
5 If you were blarting, e you’d use some different words.
6 If you were narky, f a butty would be a sandwich.

3 Find the dialect words for these things in the text. 4 COMPARE CULTURES
1 jam sandwich: 1 Are there different dialects in your country?
2 friend: Find out how many there are.
3 grumpy: 2 What dialect words do you know in your
language? Explain what they mean in English.

5 WRITING

It's not about winning

1 Look at the text and write the missing headings.
During a tournament   Good karate habits   After a tournament   Before a tournament

ALL ABOUT

Karate is a very popular Japanese martial art.

It’s fun, it keeps you fit, and it can improve your
concentration. You don’t need to be fast or strong –
anyone can enjoy karate.

1 3
If you want to be good at karate, you need to
practise regularly. It’s a good idea to watch
karate tournaments, so you can learn from
other participants.
2
The night before a tournament, make sure you
sleep well. You need to eat plenty of healthy
snacks, like bananas and nuts, and you
shouldn’t eat a lot of sugary food. You should
concentrate on your breathing – this will keep
you calm.
When you take part in a tournament, you
must wear the proper karate uniform. Always
remember: when you’re performing, you
mustn’t move backwards. And when you’re
not performing, you mustn’t fool around – it’s
important to respect the other participants.
You don’t need to win. Just enjoy performing!
4
First, get some rest and have a good meal! Then
think about the tournament. What can you learn
from it? What can you do differently next time?

2 Read the text again. Are the sentences true (T) or false (F)? 4 Think about a sport or pastime that you
1 You can only do karate if you are fast. do, or that you are interested in, and make
notes about it. Use modal verbs.
