Description

Explore the unique linguistic landscape of the Shetland Isles with this comprehensive study from Routledge. As one of the lesser-known varieties of English within the Inner Circle, the Shetland dialect offers a distinct look at how language evolves in the northernmost parts of Scotland and Britain. This scholarly work addresses the gaps in our current understanding of English varieties. By focusing on the characteristic features found at every linguistic level, the text provides a deep look into the dialect's specific sound system and phonology. Sundkvist's research is built upon the results of an extensive three-year study, making it a reliable resource for students and linguists interested in the diversity of the English language. Whether you are researching world Englishes or studying regional Scottish dialects, this treatise provides the detailed information needed to understand this specific linguistic community. It serves as an important addition to the Routledge Studies in World Englishes series, filling a necessary void in the academic map of the Inner Circle.
