商品簡介
The English spoken in Newfoundland and Labrador has long been recognized as a distinct variety within North America. Known for its conservatism, Newfoundland English has retained close affinities with its linguistic roots: the traditional dialects of southwest England and southeast Ireland.
Since joining Canada in 1949, the region has undergone substantial socioeconomic and cultural changes. It has also experienced considerable linguistic changes, much of which involves the adoption of community-external, or supralocal, features by younger generations. As a result, Newfoundland English displays a degree of internal variation that has few parallels in the English-speaking world.
This book provides an accessible description of the phonological, grammatical, and lexical features of Newfoundland and Labrador English, along with an account of the province's linguistic variation in terms of historical, regional, and social factors. It also offers language samples from both traditional and contemporary speakers and an overview of published work from earlier centuries to the present.
