Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Glossary of the Lancashire Dialect In these prefatory remarks it is not intended to do more than indicate, as briefly as possible, the general scope of the Glossary, and to offer such observations as seem absolutely necessary for the due comprehension of the plan pursued. The portion now published will amount, it is estimated, to rather more than a third of the Glossary proper. On its completion, the words themselves will be reprinted - apart from the meanings, notes, and illustrations - accompanied by a representation of the pronunciation according to the Glossic system of Mr. A. J. Ellis. This will be followed by a General Introduction, embodying remarks on the grammatical structure and peculiarities of the dialect, and on the variations of idiom and pronunciation as observable in the several districts of the county. It is proposed also to include, in this section of the work, an essay on the capabilities of the dialect and a bibliographical survey of its literature. A fairly well-defined difference exists between the dialect of the northern and southern portions of Lancashire.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Glossary of the Dialect of the Hundred of Lonsdale, North and South of the Sands, in the County of Lancaster It will probably be remarked by some into whose hands the Glossary will pass, as it has been by the editor, that a considerable number of the words in the Glossary, jointly with their definitions, appear to have been taken bodily from Halliwell's Dictionary of Archaic and Provincial Words. This is explained by a note from the late Herbert Coleridge to Mr. Peacock, recommending him (in reference to a suggestion evidently originating with Mr. Peacock himself on going through Halliwell's Dictionary in connection with his own collections and researches) to mark all the words he might identify as belonging to that district of Lancashire the dialect of which he purposed to illustrate. In some instances the definitions attached to these words have been slightly modified, or, perhaps, remodelled; but, of the majority, it will be seen that they are left as copied by Mr. Peacock. In only a very few cases has the editor taken upon himself to introduce any new matter and, In these few, only with a view to illustration where illustration seemed to be called for, or likely to add to the interest of the Glossary itself. In every such case, whensoever the addition exceeds two or three words in length, the matter added is marked off from the context by brackets, and the syllable Ed. Is printed at its end.

This book was released on 2017-09-13 with total page 172 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Glossary of the Shetland Dialect The object which I have in view in publishing this Glossary is to help to preserve what yet remains among us of our old Norn language, and at the same time to give a fair sample of our dialect as it was spoken in the nineteenth century, and on to the present time. I have endeavoured to make my vocabulary something more than a mere list of words. A list of words may be interesting to the philologist, but it can be little practical use to an ordinary person. By marks to denote the different vowel sounds, I have given the common pronunciation, and by quotations of colloquial phrases I have tried to show the idioms of our vernacular speech, so that a stranger may see the peculiarities that make it a distinct dialect.
