All the recorded material was transcribed phonetically. It was assumed that the informants were speaking what in their estimation was English. All items that were not acceptable as being consistent with the requirements of Standard English in the particular contexts were extracted and separately noted. The items were then grouped according to type and patterns of deviation established
