It is known for its generally conservative nature, having retained close ties with its primary linguistic roots, the traditional speech of southwestern England and southern Ireland. Within North America, Newfoundland and Labrador English is a highly distinctive speech variety.
Over the past half century, the region has experienced substantial social, economic and cultural change. It is also characterised by a high degree of regional and social variation. This is reflected linguistically, as younger generations of Newfoundlanders and Labradorians increasingly align themselves with 'mainland' North American norms.The volume
