Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from An Historical Sketch of the Provincial Dialects of England: Illustrated by Numerous Examples In reproducing this little volume, the object of the publisher is to aid persons investigating the history of the English language, and at the same time to gratify the curiosity of those who would like to know not only the provincial English words, so often declared to he Americanisms, but how they are employed and pronounced in phrases and sentences. As there are known to be fifty thousand of such words in actual local use, not received into our dictionaries, the subject is certainly as interesting as important. The Essay forms the introduction to the Dictionary of Archaic and Provincial Words, by Mr. J. O. Halliwell, an author distinguished for his learned and disinterested exertions to extend a knowledge of the English language.
