Sommario/riassunto

Published by the American Geophysical Union as part of the Field Trip Guidebooks Series, Volume 309.  It is always a moving experience for us here in California to stand on the San Andreas fault-to realize that the ground beneath our feet has shifted 330 km dextrally over the last 24 Ma-to realize that even as we stand there, it may shift laterally as much as 6 m-and to know that is some places it is presently creeping as rapidly as 35mm/yr.

Sommario/riassunto

This book focuses on the sociolinguistic consequences of historical contact between indigenous Irish peoples and newer English and Scottish settlers in what is now the territory of Northern Ireland (NI). The contact varieties that resulted represent the oldest L2 'Englishes' globally. Moreover, the degree of admixture from English, Irish and Scots in the contemporary dialects of NI reflects various external forces. Naturally, these varieties share certain structural features with sister Celtic Englishes and indeed with other vernacular Englishes globally. However, there are other linguistic tr
