Funny, I thought it was a phonetic transcription of Scottish dialect (whence are derived many Appalachian speech patterns, of course).
- mr_sturd 4y agoTouching on Scottish, but Northumbrian. I'm not that "broad" really, though.
- chromatin 4y agoAh yes I've read that Appalacian pronunciation, dialect, and to a lesser extent grammar is still relatively faithful to some UK dialects. Fascinating that a literal phonetic transcription was potentially ambiguous.
