Koinéization is mentioned once again in this chapter. It is the idea that people from different areas
speaking distinctive regional dialects of English came together and accommodated to each other to such an extent that there was dialect leveling (or koinéization). Little is said in this book about just how this change proceeds other than that the process covers three generations. Unusually good material in the form of recordings made over many decades in New Zealand has allowed researchers to follow this process in small steps. Find out about this process and its rational. The best introduction to this is Trudgill (2004).
