Lewis, E. Glyn

Linguistics, 158, 103-126, Aug 15 75

Attitudes to Welsh and English are shown to clearly reflect the historical relations of the two languages. Effects of recent immigration and industrialization and urbanization are also shown to have an effect. Variables correlated with attitudes are linguistic background, age, sex, length of residence.
