Research title: Scots language revitalisation in the 21st century
Research Summary
I am a doctoral student in the School of Modern Languages and Cultures at the University of Glasgow. My research interests fall within Sociolinguistics and the Sociology of language, with a particular focus on:
- Minority languages and Endangered language revitalisation
- Language attitudes and ideologies
- Language policy and planning
- Multilingualism
- French and the French-speaking world
My PhD research explores the Scots language revitalisation in 21st century Scotland. I investigate what language ideologies are held by stakeholders in education regarding Scots and what the consequences are for the Scots language revitalisation.
I also do research on Picard/Ch'ti, the local variety spoken in the Hauts-de-France.
