What did you think of this episode?
It's a 't' where no 't' ought to be....we call it "the intrusive -t" as in once't, across't, and kil't. In this episode:
- I talk about the Appalachian delicacy of "killed lettuce"
- You'll hear some clips of storyteller Ray Hicks and his use of the intrusive -t and -n
- Listen to a Civil War soldier's accent and how he used the intrusive -t 100 years before Hicks
- I'll tell you about the Dictionary of American Regional English (DARE), a great resource for researching dialects
Ray Hicks audio clips: Alan Lomax Archive and Association for Cultural Equity
Voice of Civil War letter: Bernard Manatu V
Music: Landon Spain
