- Double-weighted statement
- This comprehensive book compares examples of American and British language data over time to track the most important ways that both varieties are changing. The extensive research reported by the author compares the extent to which they are following similar paths using a novel and multi-layered mixture of computer and human analysis. The ground-breaking analysis is carried out across several levels, and a range of linguistic features.
