Joachim: Ik geloof ook dat de LS-dialecten in Nederland authentieker zijn
(gebleven) dan het LS in Duitsland. Ook in het huidige Nederlands kom je
meer oud-(Indo)Germaanse woorden tegen dan in bijv. het Duits.



Ik geloof het niet. Heeft jij bewijs voor deze bewering (LS-NL authentieker
dan LS-DE)?

Piet’s reaction was something along the lines of “then that dialect group is
in trouble,” and above Joachim agreed with him, saying something like “a
dialect group that doesn’t keep its tenses apart is bound to disappear.”


If that be the case, then my home dialect (West Twente) would be in severe
trouble (which it isn't). The past tense of all verbs for all persons in my
dialect is simply the verb itself. We say:

ik bakken
y bakken
hey bakken
wy bakken
etc.

If that is a sign of disappearance, please explain why precisely my home
dialect is of the strongest persistence in a very wide area.

cheers,
