Abstract | Describes a study in which participants from five areas in the U.S. converted hand-drawn maps into generalized maps of their perceptions of dialect areas. The maps are compared with one another, with traditional maps of U.S. dialect areas, and with maps of cultural and regional zones of the U.S. (Author/SED) |
