ARKANSAWYERS KNOW all too well what other Americans think of the way Arkansawyers speak English.' Their language is ridiculed by the mass media, whether through the hick stereotypes in movies and television or the grotesque humorous caricatures of Li'l Abner, Snuffy Smith, or Ozark Ike in the comic strips. It is alternately laughed at and disparaged by insensitive tourists and newcomers to Arkansas communities. And most disgraceful of all, it is callously condemned by schoolteachers and their textbooks
