Linguistic Change in Endangered Dialects : The Case of Alternation Between Avoir and Être in Vermont French
Description
Linguistic study from the University of Vermont. From Cambridge University Press: "The present study examines the pattern of the variation of the auxiliary avoir and être in the passé composé tense in Vermont French in 22 adult speakers who migrated from Québec or are first-generation Franco-Americans. The purpose of the study is to determine if the process of replacement of être by avoir in progress in Canadian French is also taking place in Vermont and which linguistic and social constraints influence this linguistic change."
