Description: Full text of the paper by William Labov. Sociolinguistic research on linguistic change in urbanized areas of North America, leading to increased dialect diversity.
The Organization of Dialect Diversity in North America This short paper is a slightly enlarged version of a presentation given at ICSLP4, the Fourth International Conference on Spoken Language Processing at Philadelphia, October 6, 1996. This is the first of a series of reports to the speech recognition industry on the present state of sound changes in the United States. It was not included in the Proceedings of the conference since the central data is conveyed in a series of maps of the United States in 8-bit color which could not be accommodated in that publication. In response to a number of requests, it is here made available on the home page of the Phonological Atlas of North America. The data given here will be regularly updated. It will be followed by a more extensive series of maps of the United States and Canada, with full details on the sampling methods, analytic techniques, and demographic data.
