Yorkshire Dialect

I have been reading and editting a lot of Yorkshire Dialect poetry of late, especially the work of Dorothy Una Ratcliffe and John Hartley, and am building up a dictionary to help with this rather than keep referring to several books and sites.
To save time and to help other readers I am posting it here.
