Description
Abstract (cited)
I shall argue ... that the relation between the normal run of dialects in South Wales and the dialect of North Pembrokeshire can be captured by a modified version of the concept of a "phonological conspiracy". This concept was first developed by C. W. Kisseberth (1970) to handle certain relationships between phonological processes within a single dialect. Here it is extended somewhat to handle similar relationships between one dialect and another. I shall then argue that the geographical distribution of forms in North Pembrokeshire provides independent support for this formal analysis.
