Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

British and Southern hemisphere varieties of English have been shifting towards have got for stative possession, but North American varieties favour have . At the same time, have is implicated in a critical transatlantic divide, requiring do -support and resisting contraction in North America. Drawing on newspaper data from Victoria, Canada, this chapter examines possession from 1858–1935, overlapping the window during which have got began to diffuse markedly in British varieties. Have got is concentrated in these materials in negatives and interrogatives, conflict sites for do -support. This raises the question of what happens when two changes collide, and suggests that the North American preference for have may have been driven by the participation of stative have in the shift to do periphrasis. Keywords. Victoria English; Canadian English; stative possession; periphrasis; do -support; negation

Full frame distilled prediction

Teacher imitation

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
