Re: YAEDT? Syntax in dialects of English (was: Of accents & dialects (was: Azurian phonology))

There's a construction in Norfolk dialect that may be called the "strict
imperative" taking the form of "do you come here now!" (this is a command,
not a question and has the intonation of an imperative) meaning "come here
now... or else!"
Also quite common is the the use of "that" as a definite article and a
stressed pronoun too: "that dog died, that did"
