THE PIKEY DIALECT

As for this assignment, we can start by identifyin’ de pikey dialect as a language whaich is mainly used in Oirlan’, parts av englan’ wales an’ scotlan’. in reference ter dis filum language plays a major role. whaen it cums ter de struggle av power, de language used by individual is a pure strong determinant (upton & clive & jimmy & stewert 96). whaen we luk at tommy an’ de fella both can be seen ter use words dat are meant ter exert power for example pikey says ‘fuk aff, i’ll fend ‘imself meself.’ power is exerted ‘ere since tommy curses de fella an’ menshuns de term ‘meself’ in a different way.

De narrator speaks de truth whaen we generally summarises de fact dat language can be used as a bargainin’ power. based on me opinion, oi tink pikeys are pure gran’ negotiators cos they spake a language dat is not clearly an’ easily understud. their skills av negotiashun whaen it cums ter business involves wi’ ‘oy they blather (upton & clive & jimmy & stewert 98). despite de fact dat de context is within de territory av de pikeys, dis does not determine de fact dat laws are not applicable an’ dat natives can chucker whatever they want ter non-natives, therefore in me opinion so’tiz safe ter say dat tommy wud still be in powerless posishun. when we luk at de contextual words ‘thieves’ an’ ‘dags’ whaich refers ter dawgs, we can say dat pikey is a slang, dis is cos only slight modificashuns are made ter de words dat are from an original language, therefore asserts de fact dat so’tiz not a different language. ‘owever pikeys are considered ter be an oyt – groop (upton & clive & jimmy & stewert 64).

Based on me opinion oi tink de pikeys shud not be given any offishal recognishun cos they chucker not want their Sasanach variety ter be known (upton & clive & jimmy & stewert 71). de pikeys are also unwillin’ whaen it cums ter streamin’ themselves ter other cultures. language an’ meanin’ are shaped in de context av dis filum cos we git ter clap dat negotiashuns are based on de locashun av de caravan camp. we also git ter clap dat gorgeous an’ pikey are not threatened in any way by de pikey culture.
