Dialect survey

[mysiaczek88]

Hi I have huge request for you. If you can fill for me this survey you will help me in writing my BA thesis. I think questions are not so difficult but if you have problems with something Ill expain. Thank you for help.

I’m starting a dialect survey to find out what differences there are in people’s pronunciation in Australia and England. Most of these questions just answer with ‘yes’ or ‘ no’; although you can elaborate on your own answer if you wish. Thanks to those who fill this survey; it will be helpful in my BA thesis.

What do you call a set of 122 maps depicting the variety of word choice, pronunciation and slang across the U.S.? Super viral.
If you've visited Facebook in the past several hours, it's likely you've seen Joshua Katz's work. The graduate student in statistics at North Carolina State University created a series of U.S. dialect maps that, though made just for an end-of-year project for one of his classes, inadvertently set the social Internet ablaze after finding their way onto Reddit and then Business Insider.
"I started the project mostly out of personal interest," Katz told The Huffington Post. He wanted see a smoothed-out version of data collected by Burt Vaux, a professor of linguistics at the University of Cambridge, in a survey of American speech patterns.

Those words and phrases were just some of the linguistical oddities uncovered during a dialect survey by Bert Vaux. North Carolina State graduate student Joshua Katz recently mined this data for an end-of-year statistics project and created a series of maps showing the various dialect differences.
Also, how do you describe the meteorological occurrence during which rain falls while the sun is shining? If you're from Alabama or Mississippi, chances are you describe the situation as "the devil beating his wife".
Other distinct regional variations involved the pronunciation of the words caramel, lawyer and pecan.
Katz's project includes a fascinating map page which allows users to pull up 122 different maps showing regional differences for various words and phrases.
Editor's note: Thank you to Joshua Katz for allowing Patch to use his map with this article.
