Lexical Variation of an East Midlands Mining Community

Om Lexical Variation of an East Midlands Mining Community

Coal mining, a prominent industry once situated at the heart of communities across the East Midlands, has now completely ceased in the UK. Although there is some attempt to keep hold of the artefacts which tell us about mining, mining language remains neglected. Natalie Braber's research has shown there is a variety of 'pit talk' which is distinctive to the East Midlands. Lexical Variation of an East Midlands Mining Community explains the distinct language used by miners in their day-to-day lives. This book will appeal to academics interested in language variation and change, language and identity, community heritage, fragmented communities and post-industrial societies. Natalie Braber is Professor of Linguistics at Nottingham Trent University.
