Lexical Data from the Gulf States
IN THE LINGUISTIC ATLAS OF THE GULF STATES (LAGS) project, word study proceeds along three lines: regional word geography, urban word geography, and inventorial research. The first two approaches are developments of conventional linguistic geography; the third is applied lexicology. This report aims to characterize these three approaches and to demonstrate their implications for future research. Despite the hard work of American linguistic geogra…
Kentucky Moonshine: An Appreciation
The Randy Sons of Nancy Whisky
THAT OLD SONG, in both its Scottish and Irish variants, celebrates a lassie-colleen who rarely receives the scholarly attention she deserves. But, when I traveled through Mountain City, Tennessee, doing fieldwork for the LAGS project in August 1971, a good occasion presented itself to investigate the old girl and her American descendants in a serious, if not thoroughly scholarly, way. An interview there uncovered the historical remnant of a troub…

Tape/Text and Analogues
URING THE PAST TWENTY YEARS the portable tape recorder has emerged as a basic instrument in the study of regional and social dialects, so that today its presence is one of those casually accepted facts of linguistic fieldwork. The machine has become standard equipment for dialectology in the Gillieron tradition and an indispensible tool for sociolinguistic investigation of speech variables. The increased popularity of sociolinguistics and the ref…

An Approach to Urban Word Geography
W HHEN THE BLUES SINGER from Mississippi came to Chicago and made that observation, he spoke of words as well as music and suggested a central problem of American linguistic geography. In a world where speed can be purchased in a capsule and the most intimate personal relations are graphically reproduced for distribution at the corner bookstore, the artifacts and attitudes investigated by conventional, rural-oriented methodology seem remote and d…

The Linguistic Atlas of the Gulf States: An Interim Report
DURING THE PAST five years (1967-1972), the planning and fieldwork for the Linguistic Atlas of the Gulf States (LAGS) have been supported by many people and several institutions.' Those participants have helped to determine the scope of the survey, carry the work sheets through three revisions, and bring in approximately half of the estimated minimum sample. The present summary is an interim report that reviews the backgrounds of the project and …

Americanisms in Thoreau's Journal
S TUDENTS OF AMERICAN LITERATURE have never fully investigated the lexical sources of American English in the writings of Henry David Thoreau.' Although historical dictionaries include many citations from Thoreau, a survey of his Journal2 reveals a large number of words and expressions in contexts unacknowledged by A New English Dictionary on Historical Principles (NED), the Dictionary of American English (DAE), and A Dictionary of Americanisms (…

Chicago Words: The Regional Vocabulary
SPEECH VARIATION within a language community reflects the experiences of its members in local social organizations; like regional and social dialects everywhere, the speech of any large American city marks cultural solidarity and diversity in the patterns established by recurrent sets of distinctive linguistic forms.
