Just found this node today, and thought you may now be looking for a further language to learn.
May I suggest the following.
Many people find this too difficult to learn and use a translator .
You may like to "larn" this to augment your already accomplished linguistic skills!

A dictionary is at hand if required!

Many people find this too difficult to learn and use a translator. Funny! I must say that one of the links you provided mentions that they are "sometimes wrongly but understandably mistaken for Scots" ("or Irish [...]") Well, I must say that having read Trainspotting in "English" I notice some similarities between its anglicized Scots and this Geordie. Actually, after having finished the book, it was relatively easy to compose some simple phrases (hopefully) in its style. Indeed I remember having written one such remark (link @ GG) in answer to a troll (yeah, yeah, I know) in clpmisc. To quote myself: `On 4 Sep 2006 14:11:14 -0700, "Skybuck" <skybuck2000@hotmail.com> wrote: [loads ay shite] Oh ma perr wee lassie!
