Observations
It's obviously an English dialect.

There appear to be three vowel phonemes: u, a (pronounced &#593;), and i. Internal -w- becomes -b-; internal -t- becomes -k-. Final -t becomes -p; -v becomes -b; -s is silent like in French. The pronunciation of "gloves" shows how oo as in foot and u as in strut have merged (compare a similar merger in northern England).

The auxiliary verb following an interrogative word appears to have absorbed into -le suffix, and this prevents final -t from becoming -p.
