Urban Colloquial Swedish in Finland

Urban Colloquial Swedish in Finland is a sociolinguistically oriented project, during 1990 - 1995 financed by the Academy of Finland. The aim of the project has been to "describe the local language of a number of towns with a Swedish-speaking population, and to analyze the forces behind the rize and the preserving of local urban varieties". The main results of the project are a dissertation (unpublished) "Morfologisk variation i finlandssvenska stadsmål" ("Morphological variation in Finland Swedish urban colloquial language") by Marie-Charlotte Gullmets (1994), and a monograph "Stad och bygd" ("Town and rural surroundings") by Ann-Marie Ivars (1996). In the years 1994-1995 the funding was Mk320,000. The leader of the project was Prof. Ann-Marie Ivars.
