Variation and Change in Aberdeen English: A Sociophonetic Study - Regensburger Arbeiten zur Anglistik und Amerikanistik / Regensburg Studies in British and American Languages and Cultures
Thorsten Brato
This volume provides a sociophonetic study of the urban accent of Aberdeen. It shows how dialect contact has led to adoption of innovative supraregional accent features and the marginalisation of traditional variants. It uses an innovative method to assess the importance of the individual speaker in innovating and conserving the local accent.
