London's Dialect: An Ancient Form of English Speech (Classic Reprint)
Print on DemandSeller: Forgotten Books, London, United Kingdom
Seller rating 5 out of 5 stars
Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book explores the history and dialects of the English language, as well as the misconception surrounding a âstandard Englishâ to make an argument for the preservation of local dialects in the face of their increasing obsolescence. The author argues that dialects are not mere corruptions of a more refined English but are historically venerable and often more musically complex than the uniform 'Kings English' advocated by the masses. The book delves into the phonetic intricacies, lost words, and literary heritage of dialects while examining their social uses and implications and concludes with a proposal for a simple cure to the ills of English pronunciation. 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. Seller Inventory # 9781331299356_0
