Biography

Professor Jennifer Smith graduated in Linguistics from Durham (MA) and York (PhD). Her research is in sociolinguistics and language variation and change, focussing on dialect morphosyntax, particularly in varieties of Scots.  She has directed a number of ESRC, AHRC and British Academy funded projects, and has created two major digital resources for the analysis of speech patterns across Scotland, The Scots Syntax Atlas and Speak for Yersel.
