ND Dialect

[Patti J. Kurtz]

I'm beginning a research project on the dialect of North Dakota
(specifically I'm looking at its influence on student writing)

I'm not asking anyone to do a search for me.  Just can you give me other
terms I might use in the search besides "North dakota dialect" which
isn't turning up much?  Is it part of the North central dialect area?
What other search terms might be helpful?

Thanks!

Foster: What about our evidence? They've got to take notice of that.



Straker: Evidence. What's it going to look like when Henderson claims
that we manufactured it, just to get a space clearance program?



Foster: But we are RIGHT!



Straker: Sometimes, Colonel, that's not quite enough.
