A sociohistorical and linguistic profile focuses on a hitherto severely under-researched variety of English. The book traces the origins and development of Bermudian English, so as to situate the variety within the canon of other lesser-known varieties of English, and provides a first in-depth description of its variable morphosyntactic structure. Relying on sociolinguistic interview data and combining qualitative, typological and quantitative, variationist analyses of selected morphosyntactic features, it sheds light on structural affiliations of Bermudian English and argues for a two-way transfer pattern where Bermudian English plays an important role in the development of a number of other English(-based) varieties in the wider geographical region. Complementing existing studies which document such varieties, this book contributes to the body of research that describes the diversity of English(-based) varieties around the globe, filling a notable gap"-- $c Provided by publisher. 500 $a Based on the author's dissertation (doctoral)--University of Zurich, 2017. 504 $a Includes bibliographical references and index. 505 00 $g Index. $g List of figures -- $g List of maps and pictures -- $g Acknowledgments -- $g Introduction -- $t Quantitative past be leveling results -- $t Research design and aims -- $t The theoretical framework of Bermudian English as a contact-based variety -- $t Contact dialectology and dialects in contact -- $t Accommodation, its linguistic outcomes, and koinéization -- $t New-dialect formation models -- $t Beyond dialects in contact -- $t Universals and typologies of English(-based) varieties -- $t How to classify Bermudian English? -- $t Space, spatiality, migration and mobility -- $t The sociolinguistics of mobility -- $t Synthesis -- $t Bermuda : 400 years of history -- $t The Bermudian social history : From shore to shore -- $t The beginnings of settlement and the early years -- $t Navigating the waters during Bermuda's maritime age -- $t A new orientation in 19th-century Bermuda -- $t 20th-century Bermuda and the heyday of tourism -- $t A snapshot of contemporary life in Bermuda -- $t The Bermudian sociolinguistic situation -- $t The formation and historical development of Bermudian English -- $t The contemporary linguistic context of Bermudian English -- $t Methodology and data -- $t Fieldwork methodology -- $t The corpus and potential caveats -- $t Bermudian English morphosyntax : Qualitative and quantitative analyses -- $t A first descriptive profile of Bermudian English morphosyntax -- $t Noun phrase -- $t Adjective phrase -- $t Prepositional phrase -- $t Verb morphology and syntax -- $t First insights into Bermudian English morphosyntax -- $t Typological affiliations of Bermudian English : Cross-dialectal profiles -- $t Methodology -- $t Results and discussion of findings -- $t A variationist analysis of selected Bermudian English features -- $t Syllable-coda consonant cluster reduction -- $t Methodology -- $t Results and discussion of findings -- $t Past be leveling -- $t Methodology -- $t Results and discussion of findings -- $t Conclusion -- $t The cross-dialectal profiles -- $t The feature analyses : Consonant cluster reduction and past be leveling -- $t Bermudian English : Not as blank a spot anymore -- $t References -- $t Appendices -- $t Informants -- $t Qualitative typological analysis -- $t Quantitative CCR results -- $t Quantitative past be leveling results -- $g Index. 650 0 $a English language $x Social aspects $z Bermuda Islands. 650 0 $a English language $x Dialects $z Bermuda Islands. 650 0 $a Sociolinguistics $z Bermuda Islands. 650 7 $a English language $x Dialects. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00911083 650 7 $a English language $x Social aspects. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00911649 650 7 $a Sociolinguistics. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01123847 651 7 $a Bermuda Islands. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01206531 776 08 $i Online version: $a Eberle, Nicole, $t Bermudian English $d Amsterdam ; Philadelphia : John Benjamins Publishing Company, 2021. $z 9789027260048 $w (DLC) 2020055009 830 0 $a Varieties of English around the world. $p General series ; $v v. 64. 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20231117013030.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=7D4F18788FC011ECBA4AA6A62FECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
