Descrizione dell’articolo da parte del venditore

nach der Bestellung gedruckt Neuware - Printed after ordering - Step back into the sound of Kent - a county's speech recorded with affectionate precision. A living lexicon of Kent.A Dictionary of the Kentish Dialect and Provincialisms in use in the County of Kent assembles the words, phrases and local usages that gave everyday life its voice across nineteenth-century Kent. As a kent dialect dictionary it maps pronunciation, meanings and context for words long absent from standard glossaries, making it an indispensable english provincial language resource for students of english dialect studies and for anyone drawn to the rhythms of rural England speech. Organised for reference yet full of local nuance, its entries show variant spellings and usages that reveal how communities named the world around them. Practical as well as scholarly, this kentish vocabulary collection serves family historians and local readers alike: a quietly powerful genealogy research tool when parish registers and letters demand interpretation.Republished by Alpha Editions in a careful modern edition, this volume preserves the spirit of the original while making it effortless to enjoy today - a heritage title prepared for readers and collectors alike. Beyond its immediate utility, the work is a Victorian England reference, a historical linguistics reference and a language study resource: a window into speech patterns and social life on the cusp of modernity. Casual readers will relish the local colour and vanished turns of phrase; classic-literature collectors and scholars will prize it for the depth it adds to british regional dialects and to broader english dialect studies. More than a glossary of provincialisms, this edition is a cultural resource that restores a county's voice to the present. Scholars of literary history and social change will recognise traces of these local idioms in period fiction and records, while local historians and family researchers will find the vocabulary indispensable for interpreting documents and oral histories. For collectors, the volume offers the authenticity and context that elevate it beyond a mere reference.…
