After a survey of the previous scholarship on English multilingual accounts whose base language is Medieval Latin, it transpired that no published work had attempted to trace dialectal features in the scribe's vernacular. Nor has, to date, any investigation addressed that question save for a footnote in Hulbert's (1936) work. This article offers a systematic study of the northern vs. supralocal spelling forms in the Durham Account Rolls. The data analysis comprises vowels (the use of the <y>/<i> digraphs for long vowels and the <o> - <u> and <a> - <o> pairs) and consonants (in the form of absence of palatalisation, final-position fricatives <f(f)> - <v>, and the <qw> - <wh> and <w> - <v> pairs). The results conform to larger trends postulated in the literature on monolingual Northern Middle English (NME)/Scots sources, which acknowledges the dialectally hybrid nature of most NME texts. In so doing this investigation contributes to refining our knowledge of NME in widely unexamined, non-monolingual, textual contexts.

在对先前以基础英语为中世纪拉丁语的英语多语言账户进行的一项奖学金调查后，发现没有任何出版的著作试图追踪抄写员白话的方言特征。迄今为止，除了赫尔伯特（Hulbert）（1936）的工作中有一个脚注，也没有任何针对该问题的调查。本文提供了对达勒姆帐户劳斯莱斯中北拼写与超本地拼写形式的系统研究。数据分析包括元音（对长元音使用<y> / <i>二字图和<o>-<u>和<a>-<o>对）和辅音（不存在pa化的形式） ，最终位置的摩擦词<f（f）>-<v>，以及<qw>-<wh>和<w>-<v>对）。该结果符合单语北部中古英语（NME）/苏格兰语文献中所假定的更大趋势，该趋势承认了大多数NME文本的辩证混合性质。这样一来，这项调查有助于完善我们在广泛未经审查的，非单一语言的文本语境中对NME的了解。
