@kibi @KitRedgrave@glitch.social babber comes by way of baby, but in this phrase it's mostly used as a term of endearment
bist I think comes from either saxon or german
@KitRedgrave@glitch.social @kibi Heh, yep, the fantastic thing about English dialects, go 10 miles and they'll pronounce things differently, 50 miles they'll have a few different words, 100 miles and you won't understand a word of it
@kibi @KitRedgrave@glitch.social closest I can get in written English is "alright my babber(no standard English equivalent), how bist(no standard English equivalent)"
@KitRedgrave@glitch.social @kibi form of West Country English
Translated (roughly): Hello my friend(diminutive), how are you?
@KitRedgrave@glitch.social @kibi reet me babber? ow bist?
