Such common conceptions of endings, this thesis argues, are largely incompatible with the realities of television’s production and reception, and as a result the study of endings in television needs to be re-thought to pay attention to the specificities of the medium.

  • What Can Google Trends Data Tell Us About Dialect Labels: an Exploratory Study
    Globe: A Journal of Language, Culture and Communication, 5: 48-76 (2017) What can Google Trends data tell us about dialect labels: An exploratory study Marie Møller Jensen, Aalborg University1 Abstract: The aim of this article is twofold: firstly, it sets out to explore the usefulness of Google Trends to the study of language and the perception of variants and, secondly, it investigates the social realities of dialect labels as reflected in searches on the Internet search engine Google. Google Trends is an online tool which is freely available and allows you to map the search volume of search terms across time and space, and also see which other related searches Google users performed within the specified time period or area. In this way, Google Trends can perhaps help us shed light on what it is Google users are curious about or interested in when they search for words such as Geordie, Scouse and Cockney – is it the dialects which the labels denote or is it something else? The study thus takes as its primary interest the application of the Google Trends search tool to the study of folk perceptions of dialect labels and, as a secondary aim, if this can be used to uncover what these dialect labels denote to lay people. With regard to the first aim, the study found that using Google Trends data can be useful in the early stages of perceptual dialectology studies of dialects and dialect labels. With regard to the second aim, the main finding of the study was that there are vast differences between the three dialect labels investigated here, both in terms of sheer search volume over time but also with regard to the collocates with which they are associated.

University of West Bohemia. April, 2012. The role of Cockney in selected British Films. Supervisor: Bc. et Mgr. Andrew Tollet, M. Litt. The object of this undergraduate thesis is to cover the role of Cockney in British history and mainly in the British cinematography. Furthermore, this thesis should also sum up the basic differences which could be found in comparison with the Standard English. Not only are the differences in vocabulary, grammar and phonetics discussed in this work, but also the social background of Cockney in the historical development of London. Eventually, I have also included a brief summary of the future development of Cockney dialect. The thesis is divided into two major parts. The first part describes the development of Cockney and it is followed by the depiction of differences in already mentioned grammar, pronunciation and vocabulary.
