Du schreyvst:

> In Northern Saxon I'd say it like this:
>
> Dat s(ch)all X west sien.
>
> More archaic, still preserved in some dialects:
> Dat s(ch)all X west hebben.
>
> Increasingly common, following the German construction:
>
> Dat wardt X west sien.

Al'ns k'rrekt- man: Du Knebel hesst my weller vergeeten ;-)!!! Dat kann ick
Dy nu ne sou eynfach doyrgoon looten, ouk wenn 't all twey Doog her is! Wat
schull Gavin woll anners van my denken.

Wy synd hier in uns Rebeyd NOCH recht wat meyr oulmoodsch un seggt:

'Dat schall X *ween* hebben.'

LS: 'ween'/E: 'been' dycht my recht wat beter as al de noymoodsche
'wesen/west'-Kroom ut de Hanse-Tyden, griemel.

Groytens van dennen Inquisitor un Twyvler

Johannes "THOMAS" Meibohm
