Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book offers a fascinating journey into the heart of the Kentish dialect, a linguistic landscape rich in unique phrases, pronunciations, and expressions. The author meticulously documents the distinctive character of this dialect, contrasting it with neighboring Sussex and exploring the influences that have shaped its evolution. Delving into the historical context, this work highlights the enduring legacy of the dialect, tracing its roots back to Old and Middle English periods. The author expertly examines the impact of geographical location and historical events on the language, shedding light on why French influences remain surprisingly limited despite Kent's proximity to France. Through a comprehensive collection of Kentish words and provincialisms, the book unveils a treasure trove of linguistic quirks and peculiarities. From everyday terms like "alleymash-day" for the start of candlelit work for silk-weavers to the evocative "bo-boy" for a scarecrow, readers will discover the richness and expressiveness of this regional dialect. The inclusion of folklore and proverbial expressions adds another layer of depth, painting a vivid picture of the cultural tapestry of Kent. By preserving and illuminating the Kentish dialect, this book provides valuable insights into the region's history, culture, and identity, reminding us of the power of language to connect us to our past and to each other.
