Subject: Bermudian English in the Oxford English Dictionary: recording available


In this talk, the panellists commented on the uniqueness of Bermudian
English, and the fact that many word evidence sources are found in
dialect parody. They also explained how academic research can be used
to inform OED updates, using this as an example.

The talk covered:

- The Bermudian English variety and its description (watch from 00:00
– 12:48)
- Using academic research in OED updates (watch from 12:48 – 24:43)
- The Bermudian English pronunciation model (watch from 24:43 – 38:44)
- Dialect parody – why it happens, and the caveats of using it as
lexicographic evidence (watch from 38:44 until the end)
