匹斯堡。。。美丽的山城!匹斯堡是座古老的城市,即227年前就已存在,自然的原始森林怀抱古城,一片绿色的海洋。由于地处丘陵,驱车向市郊运行,用不了十分钟。

主持人对话
① "You are now on to the Pittsburghese Web site, and you've just clicked onto 'nouns.'
②"Do you have a favorite phrase or expression?"
③ "Can we translate that?"
④The "How yinz doin?" greeting baffled University of Pittsburgh linguist Paul Toth when he moved to Pittsburgh from Rochester, New York ten years ago. After a while, he says, he began to see patterns in the way people from Pittsburgh talk.

"It gets about 100,000 hits a month. I'd say most of the attention that the site gets is from people who have moved out of the city that are longing for stuff from their hometown."
"I clicked on to nouns. That's actually our biggest section that people have contributed the most words to, so I thought we'd go there and take a look at some of the submissions. Let's just see what comes up here. I see on the screen right in front of us, 'jaggers.' Jaggers is something that means thorns like if you have a rose and you have thorns, those are jaggers, they're not thorns."
"How are yinz doin and at?' is one of my favorites because it would blow away anyone who was from out of town."
"How are you?"
