New perspectives on Scottish Standard English: Introducing the Scottish component of the International Corpus of English --; Index; restricted access; Issued also in print N2 - Northern English has been the object of much attention linguistically over the last thirty years but scholars have had a tendency to focus on the phonology of the dialects and varieties encountered. The purpose of the present volume is to complement and enrich the existing studies by providing readers with a kaleidoscopic perspective, allowing for a holistic interpretation and understanding of Northern English. It includes studies not only on phonology but also on semantics, syntax and sociolinguistics from a synchronic and diachronic point of view, with a special emphasis on the process of enregisterment. The varieties covered include Scottish Standard English, Shetland and Northern Ireland as well as varieties from the North of England UR - https://doi.org/10.1515/9783110450903 UR - https://www.degruyter.com/isbn/9783110450903 UR - https://www.degruyter.com/document/cover/isbn/9783110450903/original ER -
