Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Glossary of the Essex Dialect Some years since, when making pedestrian tours through Essex, I was struck with the peculiarity of the dialect, and I noted down many words. Having looked through Mr. Russell Smith's List of Provincial Glossaries for England, and not found one for this county, it occurred to me that a Glossary might be useful, especially as I learned that the dialect was dying out. With this view I consulted several works on the subject, but was not at first rewarded with much success. The Mithri dates of Adelung gives a version of the Lord's Prayer in the dialect of Walden, in Essex, taken from Chamberlayne's Oratio Dominica.

This book was released on 2015-06-30 with total page 86 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Contribution to an Essex Dialect Dictionary Supplement Fall of the leaf (autumn), is now rare in literature, a dialect phrase. Fettle is a dialect or colloquial word. King-cup is a general literary word for certain kinds of ranunculus; we use it only for marsh-marigold. Mercury with us is Good King Henry only; in literature it is also used for Dog's Mercury (Mercurialis perennis) and other plants. Sere, dry, generally, in literature, we use only for wood and vegetation. Spinney I cannot defend; it shall go. Yet Dr. Joseph Wright admits it to The Dialect Dictionary. I shall be glad to hear of any other words whose right can be challenged, and will apply the supreme test, as is done above, of the Oxford Dictionary. Regret is expressed by one or two critics that a phonetic system is lacking. That is due partly to my incompetence - for I am ignorant of phonetics, and perhaps incapable of acquiring a working knowledge of them - but were I ever so skilled, I would have avoided strict scientific treatment, because it would have been incomprehensible to people for whom the book was designed, the general reader. Take the Dialect Dictionary, and see what a complete system of sound analysis would mean. What would the' man in the street' make of ewe for away, ater (after), bali (barley), bvil (boil), bwei (boy) - to say nothing of a squad of other strange symbols which cannot be presented here because they require special type? I have therefore adopted the method of The Concise Oxford Dictionary designed for the general reader, wherein explanatory spellings, when they are needed, are such as fahdher (father), kawf (cough), duv (dove), sahm (psalm), westcul (waistcoat), britshiz (breeches), and so on. Thus, with submission, but with some shadow of justification, to my kindly critics, whose comments I value highly, and find most helpful.
