Me (my)
I find sometimes "me" instead of "my" in the texts I read.
Could you tell me the origin if it? Is it an ancient and/or poetic form (as I've always thought) or a still used slang/dialect form?
In this precise case I'm reading and translating a play written in 1984:
At the very beginning there's an old lady from Yorkshire saying:
"This is me diary of important dates"
