Me telling my Language beliefs

Reflection

My research confirmed my language beliefs. The research and data did not raise more questions on the subject or my language beliefs.

Recommend

If someone else or I do this research again then I recommend that you have more then one research question. You should also make sher that you stay on topic. You should get more then one person to interview or do a survey with lots of people. Be for all that get more time to do research.

Coclusion

I did not answer my research question. I did not answer it because I did not look back at it and I changed my primary research.

I learned that in the Boston dialect there are rules to when you drop your r's. Also that
there is a big difference in the way that you pronounce words up there then here.

Secondary Research
