Much Ado......
Just thinking about language
And colloquial variations
So....
Would a 'northern' version
Of newt
Be nowt?
There's no bout adoubt it
And how is no sense
The same as nonsense
Only different?
And can you ride tandem?
These questions, and more
Are much ado about nothing
Or
Much ado about nowt
Or should that therefore
Be newt?

Ha! That's a fun wordplay rabbit hole. I've definitely had those 'wait, how does that make sense?' moments with language. 'Nowt' for 'newt' is brilliant. I'm going to be thinking about that all day.
