and the North Sea Coast, which forms its eastern boundary, are the principal geographical landmarks Dr Means explains: “Between the 14th and 17th centuries there was a gradual but very significant shift in the pronunciation of vowels in English. This is called the Great Vowel Shift. One effect of this shift was that many words that had previously been pronounced with an 'oo' sound came to be pronounced with the 'ow' sound we hear in present-day house, now, cow and town.

Dr Adams Means, a lecturer in the History of the English Language at Newcastle University, explains: “Old English (the language spoken by the Anglo-Saxons, 500 AD up to the Norman conquest) had a word, tun. This meant ‘enclosure, estate, farm, village’. It’s the origin of our present-day English word, town, and survives also as an element in place names like Darlington. In Old English, this word would have been pronounced like “Toon”.Although the Great Vowel Shift affected most accents of English, some areas remained unaffected. In Scotland, for example, and in the north of England many people would still have been saying 'hoose' for house and 'toon' for town.” Read More Related Articles AB - It has been customary to think of the rivalry between Heart of Midlothian FC (Hearts) and Hibernian FC (Hibs) in Scotland’s capital city as a less well-known and diluted imitation of the rivalry between Glasgow’s so-called Old Firm of Celtic and Rangers with both rivalries being located within the context of sectarian identity politics. In fact, as argued in this article, the early history of the two Edinburgh clubs reveals a considerably closer association with sectarianism than is to be found in the initial years of the Old Firm. In support of this claim, evidence is drawn here from Hibs’ exclusively Catholic origins and from Hearts’ militaristic connections at the time of the First World War. On the other hand, as we further demonstrate, the contemporary rivalry between Hearts and Hibs owes less to religious and ethnic division than to spatial factors, or at the very least to the imagining of place, and to perceptions centred on the comparable images of the two clubs, both on and off the field of play, not least in relation to social class. With specific reference to place, while Hearts supporters are eager to celebrate their club as ‘the talk o’ the toon (town)’, one is increasingly obliged to consider which Edinburgh imaginary is implied in their famous old song and also what Hibs supporters’ celebration of the city’s district of Leith tell us about the current rivalry. Furthermore, while the Hearts-Hibs rivalry has entered a post-sectarian phase, sectarian elements do remain a feature of both clubs although these tend to manifest themselves when they are in opposition to one or other of Glasgow’s Old Firm clubs for specific political and ethnic reasons.

The old, “unshifted” pronunciation became rooted as a feature of traditional or broad accents in the North East. Beal, Joan C.

[7] Series featured [ edit ] There is a general perception within the rest of the British Isles and further afield that the North East is synonymous with the 'Geordie' dialect and that the area exhibits a degree of homogeneity which is not matched on the ground. Research has shown not only that there are indeed quite distinctive regional varieties throughout the North East but that native speakers of these dialects are proud of their differences and that older people, in particular, are keen to maintain them. Further differentiation was facilitated by subsequent historical developments in these sub-districts of the North East like the concentration of coal extraction and export in Newcastle/Tyneside, the fact that Sunderland/Wearside boasted important salt and ship-building industries and the fact that Middlesbrough/Teesside was at one time the biggest global producer of pig-iron. The demise of these and other North East industries in the twentieth and twenty-first centuries has forced the areas to further diversify economically. Distinctive dialect zones have arisen on account of these different migratory patterns, as well as the variable historical and contemporary sources of income, although Newcastle remains the most culturally and economically dominant of the principle urban centres of the region. and continues from there to the southern banks of the river Tees in the south.
