This volume provides a sociophonetic study of the urban accent of Aberdeen. It shows how dialect contact has led to adoption of innovative supraregional accent features and the marginalisation of traditional variants. It uses an innovative method to assess the importance of the individual speaker in innovating and conserving the local accent.
