Subject: RE: Kate Rusby, 'You belong to me'
Diane Easby, you further state.>>>>>>>>>>Don't need to. Been there. Done that. Got the MSc in Linguistics.
In mainland Britain there are two academically-recognised dialects.
Lowland Scots and Yorkshire Dales.
Not Barnsley.<<<<<<<<<<<<
Your will to win arguments or debates certainly outweighs your so called MSc knowledge in Linguistics....and for someone so qualified, why would you wish to use expletives? Did your studies leave you so lacking in vocabulary that debasing your utterances has to suffice?
For someone who claims to have "Been there. Done that" you certainly lack any finesse.
Two academically recognised dialects?......So Cornwall and Devon dialect is not recognised, neither Liverpool or Birmingham? Oh and Geordie?....not recognised dialects or is that some other figment of your imagination?
