Also Known As:Cockney dialect

Cockney is a dialect of the English language, mainly spoken in London and its environs, particularly by Londoners with working-class and lower middle-class roots. The term Cockney is also used as a demonym for a person from the East End,[1] [2] [3] or, traditionally, born within earshot of Bow Bells.[4] [5]

Estuary English is an intermediate accent between Cockney and Received Pronunciation, also widely spoken in and around London, as well as in wider South Eastern England.[6] [7] In multicultural areas of London, the Cockney dialect is, to an extent, being replaced by Multicultural London English—a new form of speech with significant Cockney influence.

Words and phrases

Etymology of Cockney

The earliest recorded use of the term is 1362 in passus VI of William Langland's Piers Plowman, where it is used to mean "a small, misshapen egg", from Middle English coken + ey ("a cock's egg").[8] Concurrently, the mythical land of luxury Cockaigne (attested from 1305) appeared under a variety of spellings, including Cockayne, Cocknay, and Cockney, and became humorously associated with the English capital London.[9]

The current meaning of Cockney comes from its use among rural Englishmen (attested in 1520) as a pejorative term for effeminate town-dwellers, from an earlier general sense (encountered in "The Reeve's Tale" of Geoffrey Chaucer's The Canterbury Tales) of a "cokenay" as "a child tenderly brought up" and, by extension, "an effeminate fellow" or "a ".[10] This may have developed from the sources above or separately, alongside such terms as "" and "" which both have the sense of "to make a  ... or the darling of", "to indulge or pamper".[11] By 1600, this meaning of cockney was being particularly associated with the Bow Bells area.[12] [13] In 1617, the travel writer Fynes Moryson stated in his Itinerary that "Londoners, and all within the sound of Bow Bells, are in reproach called Cockneys."[14] The same year, John Minsheu included the term in this newly restricted sense in his dictionary Ductor in Linguas.

Other terms

Region

Initially, when London consisted of little more than the walled City, the term applied to all Londoners, and this lingered into the 19th century. As the city grew, the definitions shifted to alternatives based on dialect or more specific areas; the East End and the area within earshot of Bow Bells.

The East End of London and the vicinity of Bow bells are often used interchangeably, representing the identity of the East End. The region within the audible range of the bells varies depending on the direction of the wind, but there is a correlation between the two geographic definitions under the typical prevailing wind conditions. The term can apply to East Londoners who do not speak the dialect and those who do.[16]

London's East End

The traditional core districts of the East End include Middlesex towns of Bethnal Green, Whitechapel, Spitalfields, Stepney, Wapping, Limehouse, Poplar, Haggerston, Aldgate, Shoreditch, the Isle of Dogs, Hackney, Hoxton, Bow and Mile End. The informal definition of the East End gradually expanded to include towns in south-west Essex such as Forest Gate, East Ham, Leyton, Plaistow, Stratford, Walthamstow and West Ham as these formed part of London's growing conurbation.

Bow Bells' audible range

The church of St Mary-le-Bow is one of the oldest, largest, and historically most important churches in the City of London. The definition based on being born within earshot of the bells,[17] cast at the Whitechapel Bell Foundry, reflects the early definition of the term as relating to all of London.

The audible range of the Bells is dependent on geography and wind conditions. The east is mostly low lying, a factor which combines with the strength and regularity of the prevailing wind, blowing from west-south-west for nearly three-quarters of the year,[18] to carry the sound further to the east, and more often. A 2012 study[19] showed that in the 19th century, and under typical conditions, the sound of the bells would carry as far as Clapton, Bow and Stratford in the east but only as far as Southwark to the south and Holborn in the west. An earlier study[20] suggested the sound would have carried even further. The 2012 study showed that in the modern era, noise pollution means that the bells can only be heard as far as Shoreditch. According to legend, Dick Whittington heard the bells 4.5 miles away at Highgate Hill, in what is now north London. The studies mean that it is credible that Whittington might have heard them on one of the infrequent days that the wind blows from the south.

The church of St Mary-le-Bow was destroyed in 1666 by the Great Fire of London and rebuilt by Sir Christopher Wren. Although the bells were destroyed again in 1941 in the Blitz, they had fallen silent on 13 June 1940 as part of the British anti-invasion preparations of World War II. Before they were replaced in 1961, there was a period when, by the "within earshot" definition, no "Bow Bell" Cockneys could be born.[21] The use of such a literal definition produces other problems since the area around the church is no longer residential, and the noise pollution means few are born within earshot.

Blurred definitions

Regional definitions are sometimes blurred. Ahead of the 2024-25 season, West Ham United released an away shirt which it called the ‘Cockney Kit’. The promotional material celebrated a Cockney identity for East London based on a territory rather than dialect.

The kit featured the Bow Bell on the reverse, as a symbol of the area, and the promotional video included the church of St Mary-le-Bow, and parts of East London within earshot of the bells, such as Brick Lane, Upper Clapton and Stratford - as well as a scene in Romford, in suburban East London..[22]

Dialect

pronounced as /notice/Cockney speakers have distinctive accents and dialects and occasionally use rhyming slang. The Survey of English Dialects took a recording from a long-time resident of Hackney in the 1950s, and the BBC made another recording in 1999 which showed how the accent had changed.[23] [24] One of the characteristic pronunciations of Cockney is th-fronting.

The early development of Cockney vocabulary is obscure, but appears to have been heavily influenced by Essex and related eastern dialects, while borrowings from Yiddish, including kosher (originally Hebrew, via Yiddish, meaning legitimate) and shtum (pronounced as //ʃtʊm// originally German, via Yiddish, meaning mute),[25] as well as Romani, for example wonga (meaning money, from the Romani "wanga" meaning coal),[26] and cushty (Kushty) (from the Romani kushtipen, meaning good) reflect the influence of those groups on the development of the speech.John Camden Hotten, in his Slang Dictionary of 1859, refers to "their use of a peculiar slang language" when describing the costermongers of London's East End.

Migration and evolution

A dialectological study of Leytonstone in 1964 found that the area's dialect was very similar to that recorded in Bethnal Green by Eva Sivertsen, but there were still some features that distinguished Leytonstone speech from Cockney.[27]

Linguistic research conducted in the early 2010s suggests that today, some aspects of the Cockney accent are declining in usage within multicultural areas, where some traditional features of Cockney have been displaced by Multicultural London English, a multiethnolect particularly common amongst young people from diverse backgrounds.[28] Nevertheless, the glottal stop, double negatives, and the vocalisation of the dark L (and other features of Cockney speech) are among the Cockney influences on Multicultural London English, and some rhyming slang terms are still in common usage.

An influential July 2010 report by Paul Kerswill, professor of sociolinguistics at Lancaster University, Multicultural London English: the emergence, acquisition, and diffusion of a new variety, predicted that the Cockney accent would disappear from London's streets within 30 years. The study, funded by the Economic and Social Research Council, said that the accent, which has been around for more than 500 years, is being replaced in London by a new hybrid language. "Cockney in the East End is now transforming itself into Multicultural London English, a new, melting-pot mixture of all those people living here who learned English as a second language", Kerswill said.

A series of new and expanded towns have often had a strong influence on local speech. Many areas beyond the capital have become Cockney-speaking to a greater or lesser degree, including the new towns of Hemel Hempstead, Basildon, and Harlow, and expanded towns such as Grays, Chelmsford and Southend. However, this is, except where least mixed, difficult to discern because of common features: linguistic historian and researcher of early dialects Alexander John Ellis in 1890 stated that Cockney developed owing to the influence of Essex dialect on London speech.

Writing in 1981, the dialectologist Peter Wright identified the building of the Becontree estate in Dagenham as influential in the spread of the Cockney dialect. This vast estate was built by the Corporation of London to house poor East Enders in a previously rural area of Essex. The residents typically kept their Cockney dialect rather than adopt an Essex dialect. Wright also reports that the Cockney dialect spread along the main railway routes to towns in the surrounding counties as early as 1923, spreading further after World War II when many refugees left London owing to the bombing, and continuing to speak Cockney in their new homes.

A more distant example where the accent stands out is Thetford in Norfolk, which tripled in size from 1957 in a deliberate attempt to attract Londoners by providing social housing funded by the London County Council.[29]

Typical features

As with many accents of the United Kingdom, Cockney is non-rhotic. A final -er is pronounced pronounced as /link/ or lowered pronounced as /link/ in broad Cockney. As with all or nearly all non-rhotic accents, the paired lexical sets COMMA and LETTER, PALM/BATH and START, THOUGHT and NORTH/FORCE, are merged. Thus, the last syllable of words such as cheetah can be pronounced pronounced as /link/ as well in broad Cockney.[30]

A broad pronounced as //ɑː// is used in words such as bath, path, demand. This originated in London in the 16th–17th centuries and is also part of Received Pronunciation (RP).

The accent features T-glottalisation, with use of the glottal stop as an allophone of pronounced as //t// in various positions, including after a stressed syllable. Glottal stops also occur, albeit less frequently for pronounced as //k// and pronounced as //p//, and occasionally for mid-word consonants. For example, Richard Whiteing spelled "Hyde Park" as Hy' Par. Like and light can be homophones. "Clapham" can be said as Cla'am (i.e., pronounced as /[ˈkl̥æʔm̩]/). pronounced as //t// may also be flapped intervocalically, e.g. utter pronounced as /[ˈaɾə]/. London pronounced as //p, t, k// are often aspirated in intervocalic and final environments, e.g., upper pronounced as /[ˈapʰə]/, utter pronounced as /[ˈatʰə]/, rocker pronounced as /[ˈɹɔkʰə]/, up pronounced as /[ˈaʔpʰ]/, out pronounced as /[ˈæːʔtʰ]/, rock pronounced as /[ˈɹɔʔkʰ]/, where RP is traditionally described as having the unaspirated variants. Also, in broad Cockney at least, the degree of aspiration is typically greater than in RP, and may often also involve some degree of affrication pronounced as /[pᶲʰ, tˢʰ, kˣʰ]/. Affricatives may be encountered in initial, intervocalic, and final position. This feature results in Cockney being often mentioned in textbooks about Semitic languages while explaining how to pronounce the glottal stop.

Phonemic correspondence

Phonetic realization

The diphthong offsets are only fully close in pronounced as //ɪj// and pronounced as //ʉw//: pronounced as /[əi̯, əʉ̯]/. In all other cases, they are more similar to pronounced as /[ɪ̯, ʊ̯]/ or pronounced as /[e̯, o̯]/. According to Beaken, pronounced as //æj// and pronounced as //ɑj// typically glide towards pronounced as /link/: pronounced as /[æe̯, ɑe̯]/, pronounced as //oj// towards pronounced as /link/: pronounced as /[oɪ̯]/, pronounced as //əw// and the wide allophone of pronounced as //æː// towards pronounced as /link/: pronounced as /[ɐʊ̯, æʊ̯]/, whereas pronounced as //ɔw// and pronounced as //ɒw// both towards pronounced as /link/: pronounced as /[ɔo̯, ɒo̯]/. According to Mott, pronounced as /[e̯, o̯]/ do not occur at all as glides: pronounced as /[æɪ̯, ɑɪ̯, oɪ̯, ɐʊ̯, æʊ̯, ɒʊ̯]/ (he does not show pronounced as //ɪj, ʉw, ɔw// on his charts). Furthermore, Wells remarks on the laxness of the unrounded offset of pronounced as //əw//, which is a kind of a centralized pronounced as /link/: pronounced as /[ɐɤ̯]/.

In the rest of the article, this is treated as a simple allophonic rule and only (IPA|j) and (IPA|w) are used for the diphthong offsets. In narrow phonetic transcription, their rounded and unrounded counterparts are written with (IPA|ɥ) and (IPA|ɰ) (phonetically pronounced as /[ʏ̯ ~ ø̯]/ and pronounced as /[ɯ̜̽ ~ ɤ̯]/ in fully narrow transcription). Only the central offglides pronounced as /[ə̯]/ and pronounced as /[ʉ̯]/ are transcribed as non-syllabic vowels due to the lack of appropriate glide symbols.

Diphthong alterations in Cockney are:

Other vowel differences include

The dialect uses the vocalisation of dark L, hence pronounced as /[ˈmɪwwɔw]/ for Millwall. The actual realization of a vocalized pronounced as //l// is influenced by surrounding vowels, and it may be realized as pronounced as /[u]/, pronounced as /[ʊ]/, pronounced as /[o]/ or pronounced as /[ɤ]/. It is also transcribed as a semivowel pronounced as /[w]/ by some linguists, e.g., Coggle and Rosewarne. However, according to, the vocalized dark l is sometimes an unoccluded lateral approximant, which differs from the RP pronounced as /[ɫ]/ only by the lack of the alveolar contact. Relatedly, there are many possible vowel neutralisations and absorptions in the context of a following dark L (pronounced as /[ɫ]/) or its vocalized version; these include:

Cockney has been occasionally described as replacing pronounced as //ɹ// with pronounced as //w//. For example, (or fwee) instead of three, instead of frosty. Peter Wright, a Survey of English Dialects fieldworker, concluded that this was not a universal feature of Cockneys but that it was more common to hear this in the London area than elsewhere in Britain. This description may also be a result of mishearing the labiodental R as pronounced as //w//, when it is still a distinct phoneme in Cockney.

An unstressed final -ow may be pronounced pronounced as /link/. In broad Cockney, this can be lowered to pronounced as /link/. This is common to most traditional, Southern English dialects except for those in the West Country.

Regarding grammar, Cockney uses me instead of my, for example, "At's me book you got 'ere" pronounced as /[ˈæʔs mɪ ˈbʊk jə ˈɡɔʔ eː]/. (where 'ere' means 'there'). It cannot be used when "my" is emphasized; e.g., "At's my book you got 'ere" pronounced as /[æʔs ˈmɑj ˈbʊk jə ˈɡɔʔ eː]/. It also uses the term ain't, as well as double negatives, for example, "I didn't see nuffink".

By the 1980s and 1990s, most of the features mentioned above had partly spread into more general south-eastern speech, giving the accent called Estuary English; an Estuary speaker will use some but not all of the Cockney sounds.[34] [35] [36]

Perception

The Cockney accent has long been regarded as an indicator of low status. For example, in 1909 the Conference on the Teaching of English in London Elementary Schools issued by the London County Council, stating that "the Cockney mode of speech, with its unpleasant twang, is a modern corruption without legitimate credentials, and is unworthy of being the speech of any person in the capital city of the Empire".[37] Others defended the language variety: "The London dialect is really, especially on the South side of the Thames, a perfectly legitimate and responsible child of the old Kentish tongue [...] the dialect of London North of the Thames has been shown to be one of the many varieties of the Midland or Mercian dialect, flavoured by the East Anglian variety of the same speech". Since then, the Cockney accent has been more accepted as an alternative form of the English language rather than a lesser one, though the low status mark remains. In the 1950s, the only accent to be heard on the BBC (except in entertainment programs such as The Sooty Show) was the RP of Standard English, whereas nowadays many different accents, including Cockney or accents heavily influenced by it, can be heard on the BBC.[38] In a survey of 2,000 people conducted by Coolbrands in the autumn of 2008, Cockney was voted equal fourth coolest accent in Britain with 7% of the votes, while The Queen's English was considered the coolest, with 20% of the votes.[39] Brummie was voted least popular, receiving just 2%. The Cockney accent often featured in films produced by Ealing Studios and was frequently portrayed as the typical British accent of the lower classes in movies by Walt Disney, though this was only so in London.

Spread

Studies have indicated that the heavy use of South East England accents on television and radio may have caused the spread of Cockney English since the 1960s.[40] [41] [42] [43] Cockney is more and more influential and some claim that in the future many features of the accent may become standard.[44]

Scotland

Studies have indicated that working-class adolescents in areas such as Glasgow have begun to use certain aspects of Cockney and other Anglicisms in their speech.[45] infiltrating the traditional Glasgow patter.[46] For example, TH-fronting is commonly found, and typical Scottish features such as the postvocalic pronounced as //r// are reduced.[47] Research suggests the use of English speech characteristics is likely to be a result of the influence of London and South East England accents featuring heavily on television, such as the popular BBC One soap opera EastEnders. However, such claims have been criticized.[48]

England

Certain features of Cockney – Th-fronting, L-vocalisation, T-glottalisation, and the fronting of the GOAT and GOOSE vowels – have spread across the south-east of England and, to a lesser extent, to other areas of Britain.[49] However, Clive Upton has noted that these features have occurred independently in some other dialects, such as TH-fronting in Yorkshire and L-vocalisation in parts of Scotland.[50]

The term Estuary English has been used to describe London pronunciations slightly closer to RP than Cockney. The variety first came to public prominence in an article by David Rosewarne in the Times Educational Supplement in October 1984.[51] Rosewarne argued that it may eventually replace Received Pronunciation in the south-east. The phonetician John C. Wells collected media references to Estuary English on a website. Writing in April 2013, Wells argued that research by Joanna Przedlacka "demolished the claim that EE was a single entity sweeping the southeast. Rather, we have various sound changes emanating from working-class London speech, each spreading independently".[52]

Pearly tradition

The Pearly Kings and Queens are famous as an East End institution, but that perception is not wholly correct as they are found in other places across London, including Peckham and Penge in south London.
