"Miss Willamina": "The Geechee Dialect"

by Carmen Uter

Overview

The author tells of cultural rituals which awakened within her a respect for her grandmother's sea island culture.

This book introduces the sounds of a creole-idiom which is a Southern lingua-franca that is spoken on the coastlines of South Carolina, Georgia, and Florida.

When colorful and expressive vernacular of the Geechee language is heard on the accompanying voice-tape, it immediately brings to life this creole-language which is nowadays threatened with extinction.
