Andrys Onsman <<a href="mailto:Andrys.Onsman@calt.monash.edu.au">Andrys.Onsman@calt.monash.edu.au</a>></span><br>Subject: LL-L 'Etymology' 2007.01.05 (03) [E]<br><br>Dear all<br><br>Amongst my emails this moin, um, morning, there were those discussing
<br>moi and moin, and another unrelated one from a colleague in South Africa<br>that ended with Moi bly! Apart from the spooky coincidence, what if any<br>is the connection, and Elsie, what should I use in reply?<br><br>Cheers
<br>Andrys<br>><br>> Mathias, I looked up the Wiki reference you gave and see a<br>> contribution by someone called Harm saying he recalls "moi" being<br>> used in n/e Groningen. So maybe my memory of 50+ years and out of
<br>> the depths of my childhood is right.<br>><br>> My question then is - has it always been "moin" in other LL areas or<br>> has it changed into this, subtly, over time. I can now actually
<br>> hear, in my mind, my granfather saying "moi" to people he passed<br>> when he visited us in Australia in the early 1950s.<br>><br>> Hugo Zweep<br>
