Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book offers a fascinating glimpse into the rich and diverse world of local dialects in 19th-century England. The author delves into the unique vocabulary used in Herefordshire and surrounding counties, meticulously cataloging words and expressions that have fallen out of use in standard English. Through the lens of these provincialisms, the author sheds light on the history of the English language, exploring how regional variations have preserved older forms and meanings that have since become obsolete. The book goes beyond simply listing words, tracing their origins and illustrating their use in everyday speech, proverbs, and even local folklore. It provides a window into the lives and customs of the people who spoke these dialects, revealing how their language reflected their local environment and traditions. This book is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of language, regional culture, and the evolution of English as it was spoken across England's diverse countryside.
