This study grew out of a collaboration with Sali A. Tagliamonte (University of Toronto) and started in 2016 with a 5-month research stay where I collected the data from the Ontario Dialects Project. Sentences with alternating particle placement (pick up the book vs. pick the book up) were sampled from six communities including Toronto, Kirkland Lake, Thunderbay, North Bay, Timmins and Teminskaming Shores. The project was then finished in 2019 with another 1-month research stay in Toronto.

This study reanalyses the complete dative dataset (Röthlisberger 2018) with a focus on subsets of the data. The main argument that this study makes is that we should not rely on generalizations on, e.g. the dative alternation, from studies that only make use of subsets of the data. Typical for researchers that focus on the dative alternation is their restricted focus on dative constructions with the prototypical verb give.

This study focuses on register effects in the English dative alternation and reanalyses the dative dataset in order to explore the interaction between register (context) and region (community).

For this publication, I helped with the statistical analysis and the writing of the methodology section and other parts of the manuscript. For this reason, the data cannot be made available here.

This study uses the same dative dataset as the PhD but focuses on the spoken component of ICE-Jamaica (N=615). The dataset was additionally enriched with social information on speakers. This information was kindly made available by Martin Schweinberger (see www.martinschweinberger.de/blog/resources).

The dative dataset comprises data sampled from both ICE and GloWbE from nine national varieties of English (CanE, BrE, HKE, IndE, IrE, JamE, NZE, PhiE, SinE). The dataset is published under a CC-BY-NC 4.0 license and can be downloaded from zenodo: https://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.2553357
