dialect survey revisited
over ten years ago, i did an online dialect survey (and posted a follow up the following year) that has provided me with no end of entertainment. (specifically, i still like to call “high hosey” in my car, and i still enjoy telling people that the “devil is beating his wife” during a sun shower).
now, all these years later, i have two follow ups:
- a visualization of dialect survey responses
- a fun video put together by the atlantic containing audio of phone calls made to people living around the US, getting them to say some of these things
i still love this stuff.
