These can be collectively defined as features of local dialects moving towards StE norms. For example, lexical dedialectalization is quite simple to explain; Trudgill's investigation of different words for "ear" shows that localized lexical choices such as "fin" or "tab" are leveled into the standard word "ear."

The main difference lies in the verb "to be" (South: I bee, North: I am) and in the addition of the present tense ending to the verbs (South: we cry, North: we cry). Phonological dedialectalization is the redistribution of different phonemes in the locale
