Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book offers a fascinating glimpse into the rich tapestry of regional dialects across England and parts of Ireland and Scotland. The author meticulously compiles a comprehensive list of words and phrases unique to each region, drawing upon a wealth of historical sources and contemporary observations. The book reflects a time when regional speech patterns were still vibrantly alive and diverse, providing a unique window into the cultural identity and everyday life of people in these areas. The entries within the book go beyond simple definitions, delving into the etymology of words, their usage within local sayings and proverbs, and the social and economic contexts that shaped their evolution. The author also draws attention to the fascinating interplay between regional dialects and the broader linguistic landscape of the British Isles. The book's insights serve as a valuable historical record, capturing the vibrant tapestry of language that once flourished in these regions before the homogenizing forces of globalization. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. N° de réf. du vendeur 9781331895954_0
