Bermuda is a British overseas territory located in the North Atlantic Ocean. It consists of a group of islands with a total land area of 20 square miles. Bermuda is known for its pink sand beaches, crystal clear waters, and a subtropical climate that is pleasant all year round. Bermuda's history is fascinating, with its first inhabitants being the Spanish, who visited the islands in the 16th century. It was later inhabited by British colonizers, who arrived in the early 17th century. Today, Bermuda is a popular tourist destination and has a thriving economy centered around its offshore financial industry, insurance companies, and tourism. Despite its small size, Bermuda has a rich culture, with its own dialect and traditions.

Bermudian English. A sociohistorical and linguistic profile focuses on a hitherto severely under-researched variety of English. The book traces the origins and development of Bermudian English, so as to situate the variety within the canon of other lesser-known varieties of English, and provides a first in-depth description of its variable morphosyntactic structure. Relying on sociolinguistic interview data and combining qualitative, typological and quantitative, variationist analyses of selected morphosyntactic features, it sheds light on structural affiliations of Bermudian English and argues for a two-way transfer pattern where Bermudian English plays an important role in the development of a number of other English(-based) varieties in the wider geographical region. Complementing existing studies which document such varieties, this book contributes to the body of research that describes the diversity of English(-based) varieties around the globe, filling a notable gap.
