ATLAS OF NORTH AMERICAN ENGLISH

In December 2005, Mouton de Gruyter will publish a new multimedia
reference work, "The Atlas of North American English" by William Labov,
Sharon Ash, and Charles Boberg. 

The Atlas provides the first overall view of the pronunciation and vowel
systems of the dialects of the U.S. and Canada and redefines the
regional dialects of American English on the basis of sound changes
active in the 1990s. It is based on a telephone survey of 762 local
speakers, representing all the urbanized areas of North America. The
Atlas consists of a book accompanied by a multimedia CD-ROM. Starting
January 2006, the content of the book and the multimedia CD-ROM along
with additional data will also be available online. 

We would like to offer you the opportunity to explore the features of
the groundbreaking Atlas. For further details and to register for the
free demo version, please visit http://www.mouton-online.de/anae.php .
