GUEST,SID National English Dialect Day 16 October 2010 (55* d) RE: National English Dialect Day 16 October 2010 08 Aug 10


Howdo everybody! I've just had a great time at Sidmouth and met native speakers from Devon, Somerset, Hampshire,Isle of Wight, Gloucestershire and a real Cockney who can do it!! There's a great deal of latent interest in this subject and now we have a focal point I fancy some will be raiding the dusty depths of their local libraries searching out their own Victorian dialect writings and bringing them back to life.

This years event looks set to be better than ever and then we will need individuals or organisations around the country willing to organise future gatherings in a different area each year. A truly National Celebration of English Dialects!
