It is called the English Dialect Information Exchange and is intended to be a discussion and information forum for all interested in all apects of English Dialects. As it has only just been set up subscribers are as yet few, but hopefully through notices such as this there will be sufficient interest to generate a worthwhile and interesting list. Please feel free to forward this notice to other linguistic circles who may be interested. For more information on the list and on how to subscribe, send the message: INFO EDIE-CECTAL to the address: listproc[AT SYMBOL GOES HERE]sheffield.ac.uk Yours interactively, Charlotte Thomas and Jon Fyne ########################################################## Charlotte Thomas EGP95CMT[AT SYMBOL GOES HERE]Sheffield.ac.uk CECTAL Dept. of English Language and Linguistics University of Sheffield Sheffield S10 2TN UK "Why does anyone believe he ought to speak better than he can, and so in the end speak far worse than he might?"
