Description
Dundonians have a defining, distinctive way of expressing themselves and communicating feelings. The ancient city's characteristic accent can be heard in any Lochee bar or Hilltoon playground, or on any bus - where Dundee grannies have extraordinary 'Eh?' 'Eh!' nodding conversations. And to the trained ear they make perfect sense!
