This volume is a novel approach to the corpus-based variationist
sociolinguistic study of contemporary urban western Irish English.
Based on qualitative data as well as on linguistic features
extracted from the Corpus of Galway City Spoken English, this study
approaches the major sociolinguistic characteristics of (th) and
(dh) variability in Galway City English. It demonstrates the
diverse local patterns of variability and change in the phonetic
realisation of the dental fricatives and establishes a considerable
degree of divergence from traditional accounts on Irish English.
This volume suggests that the linguistic stratification of variants
of (th) and (dh) in Galway correlates both with the social
stratification of the city itself and with the stratification of
speakers by social status, sex/gender and age group.
