| 520 | |a Part 7: THE MUVVER TONGUE tells the story of Cockney and Australian -- what Robert MacNeil calls "English in exile." In London's East End, MacNeil traces Cockney's origins and influence, including how many of its words are rooted in Yiddish (like "gelt" for "money") and how, after Samuel Johnson's "A Dictionary of the English Language" in 1775, the dialect became the subject of satire and stereotypes. MacNeil then turns to the transplantation of English down under, and how Australia has "shaken off its crucial cringe." | ||
| 520 | |a Part 8: The "collision" of Irish and English is traced in the story of language as THE LOADED WEAPON. Examined: Irish accents, traditions and influences; the erosion of Irish Gaelic after the Great Famine of the 1840s when millions fled abroad; the linguistic impact of the British presence in Dublin, Belfast and other cities; and the literary legacy of James Joyce, who "universalized the Irish experience. | ||
