Описание работы

Conclusion

 
First of all the British local dialects can be traced back to Old English dialects. Numerous and distinct, they are characterized by phonemic and structural peculiarities. The local dialects are being gradually replaced by regional variants of the literary language, i.e. by a literary standard with a proportion of local dialect features. Moreover, Local variations in the USA are relatively small. What is called by tradition American dialects is closer in nature to regional variants of the national literary language.
