THE CAROLINA BROGUE (full movie)

THE CAROLINA BROGUE (full movie) This public television special; explores the language and culture of the North Carolina coast. The relative isolation of the North Carolina Outer Banks and inland waterways helped to preserve features of British and Scots-Irish English in the local speech. At the same time the language developed independently from mainland English to take on a distinctive sound of its own. Today the character of regional speech is maintained with pride as an expression of heritage and identity. Rooted in twenty years of fieldwork, research and community ties, THE CAROLINA BROGUE is a candid portrait of contemporary life on the Carolina Coast, and a look at one of the most unique dialects in the world. Produced by NEAL HUTCHESON Executive producer WALT WOLFRAM Narrator ERIC HODGE A production of the LANGUAGE & LIFE PROJECT at NC STATE UNIVERSITY -------------------- Want to learn more?
