Welcome to Newcastle, a vibrant and lively city in the northeast of England! It's the home of Lumo but, is also renowned for its warm hospitality and rich history. As you explore our home city, here are a few Geordie slang terms that can add some local flair to your visit:

Canny - You might hear this one a lot. This word means "good" or "nice".
Pet - Don't be surprised if someone calls you "pet." It's a friendly term, similar to "dear" or "love".
Howay - It's like saying "Come on!" or "Let's go!" You might hear it if you go to a Newcastle football match when fans cheer, "Howay the lads!"

For those looking to explore the North East of England, purchasing train tickets to Newcastle is your first step to an unforgettable journey. Booking direct trains to Newcastle ensures a hassle-free trip to the heart of the northeast. Find out more about Newcastle Station here.
