Tolkien’s old stamping ground the University of Leeds has made public a large collection of English dialects. They are now calling for more to be added to their Survey of English Dialects, following fresh funding from the National Lottery Heritage Fund.
There’s now a website for this with a survey form, The Great Big Dialect Hunt. They’re specifically looking for local dialect words and phrases used in… “your everyday speech with family and friends”.
The survey has a set of structured questions about everyday situations, easy to answer. There’s no “form sent” confirmation sent at the end of survey, but the form then gets blanked and I assume it’s sent.
