Moien, Mathias!  Or nöömt se Di amenn ook Matten? ;-)

Ossenbrügge/Osnabrück, I believe, and Low Saxon dialects on the Netherlands side
of the _Pool_, perhaps also some dialects in the Ollenborg/Oldenburg area and in
Eastern Friesland.  It could be due to a Frisian substrate and/or Low Franconian
influences (cf. W. Frisian _woansdei_, Dutch _woensdag_).

Kumpelmenten,
Reinhard/Ron
