Abstract:
Much recent scholarship on Appalachian English (e.g. Hazen and Fluharty 2004, Anderson 2004, Greene 2010, Reed 2014) has focused on intra-regional linguistic diversity. Akin to the region itself, the English varieties spoken within Appalachia are diverse and not monolithic. Language variation exists across time, geography, and culture, and more research is needed to better describe and understand such variation. The present paper discusses an updated online resource that highlights this linguistic diversity, the Appalachian English website. The revised and expanded website is a resource that provides research tools for both scholars and lay people alike. Audio recordings, transcripts, grammatical overviews, and an extensive bibliography permit an in-depth investigation of the region’s language varieties. Drawing recordings from folklore studies, oral histories, sociolinguistic interviews, and other widespread recording projects, the website’s aim is to provide raw data and potential avenues for new research. Visitors to the site can hear Appalachian English from many locales around the region, view transcripts of interviews about a variety of differing cultural practices and local histories, and even play a vocabulary game. By utilizing a plethora of different linguistic media, the site situates itself as a tool for inquiry from scholars from diverse backgrounds and disciplines, while also being accessible for non-academic pursuits.
