Inglese del West Country
indoeuropeo (occidentale Germanica, inglese)
L'inglese del West Country (codice di progetto en_wc) è un termine generale per i diversi accenti e dialetti dell'Inghilterra sudoccidentale, all'incirca da Bristol e Gloucestershire attraverso Somerset, Dorset e Devon fino alla Cornovaglia; confini e tratti non sono uniformi. Il parlato tradizionale è associato soprattutto alla roticità, cioè alla pronuncia della /r/ storica dopo le vocali in parole come farm, sebbene questo tratto sia in forte declino nelle città e tra i giovani. I vecchi dialetti rurali possono anche sonorizzare le fricative iniziali, producendo forme stereotipate come z per s o v per f, ma oggi il fenomeno è raro. Vocali, intonazione, grammatica e lessico variano notevolmente nella regione; Bristol, Devon e Cornovaglia hanno ciascuno schemi propri plasmati dalla storia locale e, in Cornovaglia, dal contatto con il cornico. I parlanti contemporanei vanno dal dialetto locale marcato a un inglese britannico meridionale quasi standard, mentre la scrittura formale segue le convenzioni standard.
