The Linguistic Atlas Project (LAP), is a survey-based research project directed by Hans Kurath in 1929, with the purpose to record words and pronunciation of everyday American English around the country. The Linguistic Atlas Project was first created by the American Dialect Society to create an American Linguistic Atlas. Throughout this project, a little over 5000 individuals have been interviewed or surveyed across the country. The main goal of the project was to develop maps to show different variants of lexical corpus, phonology, and grammaticality by regional location. Over time, Kurath’s students and other researchers branched out and started regional projects at different universities in the United States of America. Throughout this research project, over 800 topics have been discuss

Over time, Kurath’s students and other researchers branched out and started regional projects at different universities in the United States of America. Throughout this research project, over 800 topics have been discussed in most of the regions, including topics like family and social connections, items and activities that may be found at home, agriculture, and the weather. At the beginning of this project, there was no such thing as a tape recorder, therefore professionally trained field workers created very detailed phonetic transcriptions of each interview, which allowed them to document the pronunciation.
