Więcej o książce

Do you say 'gooseberries' or 'goosegogs'? Do you wear 'daps' or 'plimsolls' at the gym? And do you take your 'tranklements' with you when you go to work? From Geordie to Scouse and Estuary English, Britain has a rich dialect tradition, and a major nationwide survey is being conducted to see how we talk, what words we use, and how accents and vocabulary vary from region to region. The survey will culminate in a major 6-part series.
