  • Section 1: Monitoring Information
    Section 1: Monitoring Information 1.1 How where the consultations advertised/promoted? Initially the consultations where promoted by targeting existing groups in the Bessbrook and Camlough area. Introductory phone calls where made to group leaders and school principles accessing their interest and support for the project. Initial meetings with the community group leaders and principles of the local primary schools where organised. 1.2 How did you maximise their accessibility (i.e. venue, time of day, targeting) ? It was important given the semi rural nature of Bressbrook and Camlough that as many sessions as possible slotted into groups existing timetable. Most sessions occurred during the day in host venues already in use by the groups/schools. The groups targeted had the biggest potential of a cross over of religious and ethnic backgrounds. This was intentional. On a cross community level group leaders where consulted to establish a common neutral space in the area which could host an arts event. 1.3 Consultation Duration Duration (weeks) Total Hours Delivered Date and Times of Workshops: 26/02/14 10.30-11.00 Bessbrook Mother and Toddlers Group 30min 26/02/14 2.30-3.00 Bessbrook Luncheon Club 30 min 28/02/14 9.30-10.00 Lislea Mother and Toddler Group 30min 05/03/14 10.30-11.30 Bessbrook Mother and Toddler Group 1hr 05/03/14 2.30- 3.30 Bessbrook Luncheon Club 1.5 hrs 07/03/14 9.30- 11.00 Lislea Mother and Toddler Group 1.5hrs 12/03/14 10.30-11.30 Bessbrook Mother and Toddler Group 1hr 26/03/14 2.00- 4.00 Bessbrook Luncheon Club 2hrs 28/03/14

LONDON : LONGMANS, GREEN, & CO. DUBLIN: M. H. GILL & SON, LTD. i\ 1910 . b PEEFACE. THIS book deals with the Dialect of the English Language that is spoken in Ireland. As the Life of a people according to our motto is pictured in their speech, our picture ought to be a good one, for two languages were concerned in it Irish and English. The part played by each will be found specially set forth in and VII and in farther detail Chapters IV ; throughout the whole book. The articles and pamphlets that have already appeared on this interesting subject which are described below are all short. Some are full of keen observation but are lists ; very many mere of dialectical words with their meanings. Here for the first time in this little volume of mine our Anglo-Irish Dialect is subjected to detailed analysis and systematic classification. I have been collecting materials for this book for more than not indeed twenty years ; by way of constant work, but off and on as detailed below. The sources from which these materials were directly derived are mainly the following. First.
