Where it comes from
From Brum + -ie, from Brummagem, a dialectal variant of Birmingham.
noun Brummies
- A person from Birmingham, United Kingdom. They are in Worcestershire [...] about a mile from the rather comically named Lickey Hills, so called, I suspect, because at week-ends they attract thousands of young Brummies licking either ice-creams or each other.
- The accented variety of English spoken in Birmingham. An easy mistake to make though, you'll hear more Brummie in Welshpool in August than Welsh that's for sure.
adjective Brummier · more Brummie · Brummiest · most Brummie
- Of or relating to Birmingham, United Kingdom. "Jump on that bus?" he shouted in an even Brummier accent. "Yow must be jokin'. The bleedin' thing hasn't moved in this traffic for near on an hour."
