Dialect publications on other counties in the Westcountry Dialect knows no admiistrative boundaries and it is therefore appropriate in a Devon bibliography to include works which reflect the dialect continuum across the region. This listing is largely limited to works held in the Westcountry Studies Library and within each county titles are listed alphabetically by author. To start there is a listing from the Channel Islands, to remind us that for several centuries Norman French, along with Latin, were the main languages of administration and record keeping with the local language playing a minor role.
