This PhD level study, working in tandem with similar sociolinguistic research currently being undertaken within the Northern English Project by Dr Robert McKenzie and Dr Phillip Wallage and associated PhD students in the Discourse and Sociolinguistics research group at Northumbria University:
http://www.northumbria.ac.uk/sd/academic/sass/about/humanities/linguistics/lingresearch/discourseanalysisandsociolinguistics/?view=Standard

The project will involve an empirical investigation into the perception and/or production of varieties of English speech in the north of the UK, including the English spoken in Northern England, Scotland or Northern Ireland. The project may investigate language diversity at both micro and/or macro levels.

Studies investigating the ways in which specific phonological and/or morpho-syntactic variables are indexed to social categories, such as gender, socio-economic status or age, will be considered. The precise focus of the study is open to negotiation with the most suitable candidate for the studentship. However, applications with a specific focus upon the link between linguistic use, perception, and evaluation of Tyneside English or the emergence of supra-local varieties of 'Northern English', as distinct forms of speech, are particularly welcomed.
