Dat stimmt. Ek wull blots seggen dat dat een heelen biärg neddersassische
dialekten gifft, wo me "nit" of "neit" seggt. Dat kömp man bloots in't
Rundfunk-Platt wat jä op dat nordneddersassische opbugget nich rut. Et is
aower auk klaor, dat me bi'n spraokwannel heel eenfak fan "niwiht", usw. nao
"nit" or auk "nich(t)" hen komen kann.  Dat wöör maol interessant te wieten
wu dat fröger in't middelneddersassische was. Ek main in wecke rebeiten se
"nicht" bruken un in wecke "neet".  Apatt nu es dat jä auk sau dat de
spraoke ut Lübbeck tau de tied en grautet vörbild was un jä nich sau
schriewen worrn es wu de lüe küerden.

Beste gröten!
