Contradicting the popular notion that American English has become homogenized, the Dictionary of American Regional English demonstrates that our language still has distinct and delightful local character.

In this video, DARE Chief Editor Joan Houston Hall and Wordnik Founder Erin McKean explain the history and significance of this authoritative record of American English. To read more about DARE, visit http://www.hup.harvard.edu/features/dare/
