Indeed. Tell us more about it. It's aims etc.
My wife likes talking but unfortunately she is Irish.

just a bump really.
anybody who fits my criteria at all available in the next few days for an hour of your time? all my other candidates have had to cancel on me due to unforeseen circumstances!

As a Warringtonian born and bred, I have always fround a Salford accent to be very similar to that of central, north and east Warrington. I would say an outsider would be unable to distinguish them.

There are subtle differences. I would say that Warringtonians tend to drop the word "the" more as in "going t'shops".
Instead of anything, we say "eh-wt" whereas Salfordians would pronounce it "ow-t". They also say "2 while 3" whereas we say "2 till 3".

Thanks to Noel and Liam/Kevin and Perry, young Warringtonians seem to have adopted the Salford/Manchester habit of pronoucing th as an F and the annoying golottel (sp) stop. For example "fanks for my glass of wa'er".

Not exactly relevant to your point just my observations.

Noel & Liam come from the well known MANCHESTER suburb of Burnage, where indeed I was born (some years before them), but what that has to do with SALFORD accents I know not!!

That's why I said Salford/MANCHESTER. This fing about everyfink wiv a th being changed to an f or a v seemed to spread across the norf about the time of Madchester. Noel and Liam being prominent then.

Salford had a "manc" accent long before then!

However the Salford accent is still different to a Manc accent. If you know what your listening for. Especially in older people.
