Abstract: Looking at linguistic research on American English dialects there is no ignoring that the West is an under-researched region. In an effort to compensate for the lack of research, this pilot-sized empirical study will analyse semantic differences using figure-ground relations from Southern Californian English and Pacific Northwestern English. A figure-ground (FG) relation is where one entity, the figure, is being located in relation to another entity, the ground (e.g., ‘the apple is on the table’, ‘apple’ is the figure being located in relation to table, the ground) (Bowerman and Pederson, 1992). FG relations have been discussed extensively across languages, but not across dialects. Following the cross-linguistic approaches of Levinson and Meira (2003), this study uses FG relations to further the distinction between these two English dialects. The project used the BowPed (Bowerman and Pederson, 1992) pictures series that was created to elicit FG relation responses to gather data. Responses were collected from ...
