Like, I always wrap my family;'s christmas presents with no ribbon or plasticky ribbon but DH's family will get proper fabric ribbon - naice ribbon - because they're posher than me.

I really hope you do not differentiate between people in this way. It’s so disrespectful to your own family.

Well, yes Ay would.
Ay was honly thinkin' the other day that a portion of gateau sandwiched with fresh cream and preserves served with a tea is very naice indeed.
Not too often though, as Ay maight get too plump for may shirtwaisters and may 'ubby wouldn't approve.

(I think if you're going to criticise any "in-words/phrases" used in a community of any sort, you need to be able to come up with something better than that well-known catchphrase: "get/gives me the rage" yourself.)

I don't like it because I can't work out how I'm actually supposed to pronounce it.

Does it rhyme with place? I don't think I've ever heard anyone pronounce nice like that.

I get 'naice' things in for MIL as she is more likely to judge. My own mother knows the truth so there's no impressing her, naice or otherwise!
