| Summary |
This volume continues the Dialects of English series, considering the establishment of English in what is now the Republic of Ireland. Discussions of phonology, syntax, the lexicon, and discourse focus on traditional dialect, with further reference to colloquial Irish English, the use of dialect in literature, and the standard language. Irish English - forged in part by an ever-changing relationship with the Irish language - is considered in its local, national, and international aspects |
