it's a part of the verb wittan, to know

Another slightly dated sentence-ending comes to my mind, y'know?


I suppose "right" and/or "yeah" can function a bit like the Scouser "like" for non-scousers.

I was walking down the road, right, when I tripped over a manhole cover, y'know, and went arse over tit into a plate glass window, yeah? Like they have in a jeweller's.
Anyway...
There was I, diggin' this 'ole, 'ole in the ground
It was big an' sort o' round it was
An' there was I, diggin' it deep
It was round at the bottom and the sides were steep....
