Martinus Hoevenaar<p>Het West-Vlaams is prima te volgen. Poperings is een wat afwijkend dialect, maar nog steeds goed te volgen. Het grote probleem is dat mensen in Poperinge nooit hebben geleerd om te articuleren en praten vaak binnensmonds. Wanneer ik met een groepje sta en die doen dat, sluit ik me mentaal af en kan het me niet veel meer schelen. Integratie mag best een beetje van twee kanten komen, denk ik.</p><p>Voor al de rest is het hier heel prima leven.</p><p><a href="https://mastodon.art/tags/poperinge" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>poperinge</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.art/tags/dialect" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>dialect</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.art/tags/taal" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>taal</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.art/tags/articuleren" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>articuleren</span></a></p>

"Nijmegen heeft allerlei stadsspecialisten: een stadsdichter, een stadsarchivaris, een stadsarcheoloog, een stadstekenaar … en nu ook een stadstaalkundige. Taalwetenschapper Luis Miguel Rojas-Berscia is de gelukkige en zoals zijn naam al doet vermoeden: hij is niet in Nijmegen met Nimweegs dialect opgegroeid."

Winton's book contains some of those clippings so popular in Australian English: bronzies, deckie, Landy, oldies, vollies, wetty, and others.

Without context it's hard to guess them unless you know AusEng. I've updated my post on the phenomenon:

Head·word /ˈhedˌwɜː(ɹ)d/ n.

Since learning the South Jutlandic dialect of Danish from my wife, I've always been aware that – compared to standard Danish – many final syllables are omitted, so they rely much more on tone and length to distinguish words.

I've recently found a verb that is conjugated entirely through tones and lengths. ‘at vende’ – ‘to turn’:

vende – /vɛ̌nː/
vender – /vɛ̂n/ or /vɛn̰/
vendte – /věːn/
vendt – /vêːn/ or /vḛːn/
