New & improved dialect survey up
From the Linguist List:
Our new and improved English dialect survey is now ready for the taking at:
http://www3.uwm.edu/Dept/FLL/linguistics/survey/
This survey contains about 550 questions, compared to 120 in the one we ran last year. It also enables us to map responses from outside the contintental US, so we will be including maps for Canada and Great Britain as soon as we receive a sufficient number of responses. As before, all of the questions are suitable for consumption by non-linguists.
It’s the fun sorts of questions like “what’s the word for what water comes out of in a sink?” or “how do you pronounce marry, merry and Mary?” Plus the map results are cool.
