Book Description
Excerpt from Dialect Glossary of Over 4, 000 Words and Idioms: Now in Use in the North Riding of Yorkshire Nearly half a century ago the writer began collecting the dialect words which he heard fall from the lips of the old folk at whose firesides he daily sat. In the course of time the list grew until something like five hundred words had been jotted down. About that time a Yorkshire Reading came into his possession. This contained a two-page glossary of about forty words, alphabetically arranged. Dating from that time, the idea of compiling a glossary was conceived. The result is the present work. So far as the compiler knows, no popular work of this character has been published. That a growing desire for such a glossary exists he fully believes. During the last ten or fifteen years the interest taken in the Folk Speech has greatly increased. Many there be who have come to know and appreciate the forcefulness and antiquity of that which, during the past, they unthinkingly, and for want of knowledge, considered as nothing better and nothing beyond the vulgar speech of the untutored country-folk. Latterly, however, a more intelligent acquaintance with the Folk Speech has brought about a new order of things. The discovery has been made that language is subject to the law of change - of fashion if you like. Hence, much which has been judged as vulgar had no better foundation in support of such a verdict than deploiable ignorance. For a moment let us consider the matter from one single standpoint, and this fact presents itself. Much of the early literature, both sacred and profane, proves beyond all doubt that the rude language of to-day was the polite speech of our forefathers. Again and again, in the works of those authors, whose MSS. date from 1400 to 1600, do we find their most brilliant thoughts presented to us in language which for generations has been considered unworthy of a place in polite literature.

Book Description
Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made available for future generations to enjoy.
