p This study analyzes the associative meanings of words of the Scouse dialect a regional variety of English spoken in Liverpool which is represented in the British TV series The Responder Episode 1 (2022) using Geoffrey Leech rsquo s (1981) theory of associative meaning. It addresses two main research questions first what types of associative meaning are found in the Scouse dialect within The Responder Episode 1 and second how those identified associative meanings influence the interpretation and usage of Scouse dialect words in the series. Using a descriptive qualitative design 34 dialogues in which the characters used distinctive vocabularies or lexical items of the Scouse dialect were analyzed and categorized into five categories of meaning connotative meaning (38%) affective meaning (38%) stylistic meaning (15%) collocative meaning (6%) and reflective meaning (3%). In this case the connotative and affective meanings dominated reflecting the dialect s role in expressing regional identity and emotional expression. This study explains the importance of preserving a region s distinctive dialect as a cultural asset to deal with language homogenization. In addition this research also connects the gap between dialectology and media studies highlights the importance of popular culture in preserving regional dialects and supports further linguistic exploration of media representations and dialects. /p
