Book Description:
Presented in this book is a systematic and critical reappraisal of the methods used in language attitudes research as well as a detailed analysis of the relative positions of the English and Welsh languages in Wales and the sociolinguistic environment in which they function. Argued is the notion that the varieties of English in Wales need to be treated as distinct rather than coalesced into a broad category of bland Welsh English, not only in terms of descriptive dialect differences, but also as the basis of their distinctive social meanings.
