He is best remembered as the ultimate source and inspiration for Nancy Mitford's 'U and non-U' forms of behaviour and language usage.A patrilineal descendant of Robert the Bruce, he was the elder son of Archibald Campbell Carne Ross of Penzance and Brecon (through whom he descended also from Joseph Carne, of the Batten, Carne and Carne bank), and Millicent Strode Cobham. His paternal grandfather was Charles Campbell Ross. He was educated at Lindisfarne in Blackheath, Naish House in Burnham-on-Sea, Malvern College and Christ College, Brecon. He also attended Balliol College, University of Oxford after winning a Henry Skynner Scholarship in Astronomy in 1925, although he transferred to the School of English Language and Literature and graduated with first class honours in 1929. He also possessed a masters degree from the University of Birmingham.He was appointed an Assistant Lecturer in English Language at the University of Leeds in 1929, becoming a full lecturer in 1936. During the Second World War from 1940 he worked for the Foreign Office, before returning to academic life in 1946 as a Lecturer in English Language at Birmingham University, becoming Reader the following year. He was Professor of English Language there from 1948 to 1951 and Professor of Linguistics 1951-74.In an article published in 1954, he coined the terms "U" and "non-U", on the differences that social class makes in English language usage.In 1933 Ross married Elizabeth Stefanyja Olszewska (12 May 1906-20 April 1973); they had one son, Alan Wacaw Padmint Ross (born 1934); the marriage ended with her death in 1973.
