This might help you with the Pittsburgh slang http://www.pittsburghese.com/

They do have some weird ways of pronouncing things!

I love slang when it comes to languages. I always laugh at the different words the British use from us. And don't even get me started on the different words that are used in Lating American and Spain, it's endless. I just hate it when some idiot is always shocked that I understand what Mexicans or Argentinans say because he/she thinks that we all speak different versions of Spanish. No moron! Spanish is Spanish no matter where you go. :rolleyes:
