Alleyway or gennel?

Snicket.

 

[Brynner]

Always be a gennel to me .

 

[Greasy Chap Butty]

The first one is a Lane, it even says so on the sign.

Second picture is an Entry, because it's an entryway between two houses.

The last one is a Muggers Paradise, where scrotes secrete themselves in hoodies, jogging bottoms and Lonsdale trainers waiting for old people who've just picked their pension up, or done the weeks shopping.

There is no Ginnel (pronounced Jennel) in these pictures.

This is a proper gennel (kennel)

 

[Gin&Juice]

Bet Mark Duffy says Ginnel. Little bastard

That's an Entry, as in 'Gi ore kickin that ball agenst 't entry wall'

Here's a Ginnel (Jennel), a combination of an Entry and Passage.

That's an interesting one because I think a case could be made for all three.

Or rather, none of them sound wholly wrong.

Gi or.
Gennel goes between buildings. That's got a garden wall one side, it's virtually a Snicket

 

[Greasy Chap Butty]

What about a back passage or an entry?

A back passage can be an entry, but maybe just on your birthday or if she's a bit pissed.

 

[S64 Blade]

Is that why he was sacked?

 

[Kendal]

It's not an exact science but this is what they have always meant to me.

An alley is a wide gap between buildings or houses. I think everyone can agree on this one.

A ginnel is somewhat similar to an alley but narrower. I understand it's called a gennel in Sheffield but we pronounce it ginnel with a hard G.

While I agree entirely, my other half from Bradford wouldn't distinguish the snicket and Gennel. Both would be a snicket.

And even weirder, Kendalian's would refer to either of the above as a Yard

They call a ginnel a ten foot in Hull apparently.

We could've done with this thread during that three year long international break.

You say that, but I know of a few Entry Lanes around

So, bread roll, bread cake, teacakes, baps, buns... ?

And why do I get weird looks when I call someone mardy or nesh?

Int English Brill!

 

[PeterNdlovu081]

A bread roll is one of those little things you get served with soup in a restaurant.

A breadcake is one of those big fuckers you get from the chippy to make a chip butty with.

A teacake is the same as a breadcake but smaller.

A bap is just another name for a breadcake, they're the same thing.

A bun is a sweet treat you have for dessert that sits in one of those paper liners.

Easy.

 

[Eyeball]

Fishcakes
That’ll get yer going

 

[Rufus T. Firefly]

A back passage can be an entry, but maybe just on your birthday or if she's a bit pissed.

What if it's not hers?

No, they call it luxury housing!

A teacake has fruit in.
Don't forget in Notts it's COB

Pineapple rox on pizza. I'm so-oo far right!

Top 5 famous people in history who professed to love pineapple on pizza.

1) Idi Amin
2) The Demon Headmaster
3) Ozzie Owl
4) The person who wrote Baby Shark
5) Elon Musk

 

[Houston_Blade]

It’s a ‘jitty’ and not a ‘jennel’, ‘ginell’ or ‘genell’.

It’s also not a bread cake, it’s a bread roll.

You Yorkshire weirdos.

 

[I should coco]

Please elaborate.

From 'Colin in accounts', the gentle Aussie sitcom.

"When the river runs red,
take the dirt road instead'.

It made me piss myself, but Mrs ISC much less so.

Women, eh?

A fruit teacake does.

A teacake is just bread.

The words that first come to mind from this picture are "rape" and "stabbing", not "Ginnel", "Jennel" nor "Gennel"

Edit: Forgot offtopic question about Duffys availability as a manager

A snicket is a pathway or a shortcut that usually goes through a grassy area with trees, like down the side of a park.
