本书所涉及的是在英国进行的为数不多的拉博夫式的彻底研究之一。根据对布拉德福德、哈利法克斯和哈德斯菲尔德等城镇随机挑选的100多名线人的调查，本书首先介绍了所采用的方法，然后在描述大量变量之前，概述了该地区“传统”方言的一些方面。在调查过程中遇到的其他非标准的功能进行了描述，因为这些也是在西约克郡不断变化的语音模式的一部分。最后一章对“方言”和“口音”进行了区分，这与通常使用的区分略有不同，并表明虽然“方言”的特征似乎在标准语言的压力下有所下降，但“口音”仍然是一种社会差异。
This volume is concerned with one of the few thorough-going Labovian studies carried out in Britain. Based on a survey of over hundred randomly selected informants from the towns of Bradford, Halifax and Huddersfield, it deals first with the methodology employed, and then sketches some aspects of the ‘traditional’ dialects of the area before describing a large number of variables. Other non-standard features encountered during the survey are described, since these too are part of the changing patterns of speech in West Yorkshire. The final chapter draws a distinction between ‘dialect’ and ‘accent’ which is slightly different from that generally employed, and suggests that while ‘dialect’ features seem to have declined under the pressure of the standard language, ‘accent’ still persists as a social differentiator.
