This article is silly and needs work. For a start it is all unsourced ravings.

I am removing "Amble has a geographical connection to the German influence on its dialect.The Coquet river exits into an wide passage of the North sea and for the Saxons and other Germanic tribes would have been as close as the English coast to that of Germany could get. The coal seams have been accessible since prehistoric times exposed by erosion from the North Sea.The influence of these oft visitors/traders would have strongly influenced the indigenous Amble folk, and doubtless many mariners stayed on for a myriad of reasons.To a visitor unfamiliar with the Amble dialect, it sounds very Germanic to the ear. Amble's dialect is so distinctive that the villages of Warkworth ,Alnmouth, and the town of Alnwick ,(all within 10miles of Amble) are easily recognised as "different" from that of Amble."

As it all sounds a bit rambling (and is even in very bad grammar), with such staintments as "for the Saxons and other Germanic tribes would have been as close as the English coast to that of Germany could get" eh? What about the Tyne? Or if we are counting the whole of Great Britian then surely East Anglia and Lincolnshire could make a better claim!

Also what is "it sounds very Germanic to the ear" supposed to mean? As Northumbrian is a Germanic language (along with English) I should hope it sounds very "Germanic to the ear".

And where is the evifence of German influence in Amble? I haven't noticed any and many towns in Northumberland and Durham have had "visits" from forgeign, especially German, Dutch and Scandinavian marriners over the years.

I shall be working on this article and trying to make sense of it. Sigurd Dragon Slayer (talk) 14:22, 14 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]
