Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Glossary of Dialect Archaic Words: Used in the County of Gloucester The following Glossary is the outcome of an eight years´ residence in Gloucester, during which my business brought me into contact with all sorts and conditions of people from the various parts of the county, but principally with those who spoke the dialect of the vales of Gloucester and Berkeley, the Forest of Dean, and the North Western district. A great deal of fresh matter has been collected, which has not appeared in any previous glossaries or word-lists; but at the same time I have been greatly indebted to the labours of others who have worked before me in the same field. First and foremost amongst such publications I must mention "A Glossary of the Cotswold Dialect," by the Rev. R.W. Huntley, published in 1868. All those words in it which were not known to me, or which I could not verify, have been given on the authors authority, and are marked "Huntley." The next in importance of Gloucestershire Glossaries is contained in "Collecteana Gloucestriensia," by John Delafield Phelps, Esq., of Chavenage House, Dursley, published in 1842. Words given on his authority only are marked "Phelps." I have also excerpted the Gloucester words in Halliwell´s and Grose´s Dictionaries, and these are similarly marked "Halliwell" and "Grose" respectively, when they could not otherwise be corroborated.
