- Double-weighted statement
- This book is an original contribution to a new approach within sociolinguistics / dialectology (the use of Black Country dialect features in the 21st century) and examines regional features in communication beyond the traditional assumption that certain dialects are spoken in specific geographical spaces. It is based on original data collected over a number of years as part of a funded project and makes a significant contribution to theoretical developments in the areas of dialect levelling and shift, enregisterment and the role of performance in communication as social action.
