What i noticed about "Sgt. York" was the almost categorical use of

a-prefixing everytime there was present participle. It seemed way beyond

the constraints for a-prefixing that I;ve read about.



Some of the "Tenneseans" in that movie, including the old preacher played by

Walter Brennan, sound like the New Englanders in "Murder She wrote."
