The Social Meanings of Welsh English: Teachers' Stereotyped Judgements.
Coupland, Nikolas; And Others
Journal of Multilingual and Multicultural Development, v15 n6 p471-89 1994
Measures the reactions of teachers all over Wales to a number of varieties of Welsh English, as well as Standard British English. While they endorsed the social value of Standard British English as holding most prestige, the Southwest Wales variety emerged as a dynamic and the most truly Welsh-sounding contender for the title of Standard Welsh English.
