Black Country dialect made subject of DVD and game
The Black Country dialect has become the subject of a DVD and game to help change its perception.
The West Bromwich digital media organisation LearnPlay Foundation won Heritage Lottery funding to carry out the project.
Lara Renkevic from the foundation said: "A lot of people who are not from the Black Country don't really like us, when we're really friendly people."
Prof Urszula Clark, from Aston University, said dialect was an important part of local identity.
