An American in Yorkshire shared the British phrases she can’t live without – and Brits are claiming her for the UK

Back in 2021, American TikToker Lisa Dollan – known as @yorkshirepeach – shared the British insults she’d learnt since moving to Yorkshire. She went wildly viral.

Here’s a reminder.

It looks like Lisa’s learning curve is ongoing, as she recently posted this collection of British phrases she now uses, and it’s highly relatable.
