The Scots dialects of northern Scotland, Orkney and Shetland are among the most traditional varieties of 'English', exhibiting features not current elsewhere for centuries. Until recently, they were spoken in communities whose traditional occupations have encouraged the equation of speech with local identity. They have all also been affected by contact with Gaelic, or Norse, or both. In recent years, however, the decline of traditional industries has been matched by the discovery of oil off their coasts, encouraging inmigration of speakers of many varieties of English and other languages. How well have these varieties maintained their traditional natures at the start of the 21st century? Books in this new series provide concise, up-to-date documentation for varieties of English from around the world. Written by experts who have conducted first-hand research, the volumes provide a starting point for anyone wishing to know more about a particular dialect. Each volume follows a common structure, covering the background, phonetics and phonology, morphosyntax, lexis and history of a variety of English, and concludes with an annotated bibliography and some sample texts.
This book describes the phonological, structural, and lexical natures of the Scots dialects of northern Scotland, Orkney, and Shetland which are among the most traditional varieties of "English"-are described along with an annotated bibliography.
