What did you think of this episode?
If you've ever found yourself in the position of having to defend your accent or dialect, or if you're an educator who wants to support your students' home voices but you're not sure whether you can do that while teaching standard English, this one is for you. We'll cover three (among many) justifications for Appalachian home voices (as well as others.)
1. It's a legitimate way of speaking a language, and that is backed by research.
2. It can co-exist alongside standard English.
3. Stigma and stereotype fill the void when people do not know the histories or reasons for accent (and dialect in general.)
We'll also cover "sworp" and "watch for deer."
