As always, it was a pleasure to be involved in the @YorkToolkit CPD workshop, this time presenting some of my (+@laurel_mack’s!) research into how UK dialects have changed over the past 70 years. Such a great way to get contemporary linguistic research into the A-level classroom!
Kicking off the afternoon session, @grbails on mapping dialect change. #YorkCPD2023
