The vagaries of the Yorkshire Dialect are many and various, but there exists a band of enthusiasts (Colloquially known as Tykes) who are determined to see it continue by the creation of original Yorkshire Dialect Verse.
Many of the authors here are members of the Wakefield & District U.3.A.

Some of the verses have been recorded (where possible by the author), and when you see the MP3 button next to the text of a recorded verse you may download or play the MP3 version.
