Subject: Re: Phila. dialect



William Labov and his colleagues have done a lot of work on PHiladelphia

speech. I know there's a paper on Phil. in the collection of papers

published as "Locating Language in Space and Time" from Academic Press.

(or is it "time and space"") But that's 1980; there must be more recent

work that someone on the list can cite.

I'd like to heear about it too.
