A GLOSSARY OF THE CORNISH DIALECT
By K.C. Phillipps
Fun book for family historians/genealogists on the way Cornish spoke in both Cornwall and American mining camps. Some of the dialect words are still in use today in Cornwall.
Arranged from A-Z, you will find words such as "aftergrass" for the
second crop of hay to "zam-zoodled" meaning either half-cooked or
overcooked.
