Some Peculiarities Of Speech In Mississippi is a linguistic study of the unique dialects and speech patterns found in the state of Mississippi, written by Hubert Anthony Shands and originally published in 1893. The book examines the various regional and social variations in speech, as well as the influences of race, gender, and education on language use. Shands provides detailed analysis of specific words, phrases, and pronunciations, and explores the historical and cultural factors that have shaped the Mississippi dialect. The book also includes a glossary of Mississippi dialect terms and a discussion of the role of language in shaping social identity. Overall, Some Peculiarities Of Speech In Mississippi offers a fascinating glimpse into the linguistic diversity of the American South in the late 19th century.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
