Abstract:
This volume is a novel approach to the corpus-based variationist
sociolinguistic study of contemporary urban western Irish English. Based on
qualitative data as well as on linguistic features extracted from the Corpus
of Galway City Spoken English, this study approaches the major sociolinguistic
characteristics of (th) and (dh) variability in Galway City English. It
demonstrates the diverse local patterns of variability and change in the
phonetic realisation of the dental fricatives and establishes a considerable
degree of divergence from traditional accounts on Irish English. This volume
suggests that the linguistic stratification of variants of (th) and (dh) in
Galway correlates both with the social stratification of the city itself and
with the stratification of speakers by social status, sex/gender and age
group.

The LINGUIST List is under the umbrella of Indiana University and
as such can receive donations through Indiana University Foundation. We
also collect donations via eLinguistics Foundation, a registered 501(c)
Non Profit organization with the federal tax number 45-4211155. Either
way, the donations can be offset against your federal and sometimes your
state tax return (U.S. tax payers only). For more information visit the
IRS Web-Site, or contact your financial advisor.
Many companies also offer a gift matching program, such that
they will match any gift you make to a non-profit organization.
Normally this entails your contacting your human resources department
and sending us a form that the Indiana University Foundation fills in
and returns to your employer. This is generally a simple administrative
procedure that doubles the value of your gift to LINGUIST, without
costing you an extra penny. Please take a moment to check if
your company operates such a program.
Thank you very much for your support of LINGUIST!
