in SING
This phoneme is not part of the inventory of dialects in the south-western corner of the North as here defined, i.e. from Liverpool and South Lancashire as far across as Sheffield.

Speakers in other parts of the North would often have for the bound morpheme -ing, but would have elsewhere, thus singing would be . In the areas which retain the velar nasal plus pronunciation, occurs as a less careful, stigmatized variant, whilst is perceived as correct, almost certainly because of the spelling. The pronunciation was not perceived as incorrect until the later 18th century, when it began to be proscribed in pronouncing dictionaries. John Rice in his Introduction to the Art of Reading with Energy and Propriety (1765) writes that whilst /in/ is “taught in many of Our Grammars” it is “a viscious and indistinct Method of Pronunciation, and ought to be avoided”.
