The Pittsburgh English dialect, or "Pittsburghese," derives from influences from the Scotch-Irish, German, Central European and [Eastern European] immigrants. The dialect is somewhat similar in tone to other nearby regional dialects (ie, [Philadelphia], Baltimore), but is noted for its somewhat staccato rhythms (a result of the [Eastern European] influence). The lexicon itself contains notable cognates borrowing from Croatian and other Slavic and European languages. Examples include babushka, pierogi, and halushky.
