Wiildat ek Plat ja blouts'n beetken uut böker un so leirt hev un et nich
miine mouderspraoke is, was dat ouk ümmers heil schwaor för mi.
Mi dücht dat dei twei formen in'n paor dialekten synonym bruukt werden of
blouts ein fan eer bruukt werd. Aover ek hev ouk al lesen dat in't
Westföölsche "tegen" nich blouts Düütsch "gegen" (against) bedüdt sünnern
ouk of eigenlik Düütsch "neben(an)" (next to). Dei annern Leiglänners uut
Westfaolen weet dat filicht beter.

Kumpelmente!
