Subject: Conjunctions

J.H. van de Pol:
>Finally, there is an interjection "at", which can always remain
untranslated,
>occurring at fixed places in several Twents sentences. An example is:
>"Ik weet nich woar at 't weurdken 'at' herkump" (D.: "Ik weet niet
waar het
>woordje 'at' vandaan komt";

Of: "Ik weet niet waar dat het woordje 'at' vandaan komt"
Of: "Ik weet niet waar of dat het woordje 'at' vandaan komt"

Ook heel gewoon in gesproken Nederlands uit heel andere gebieden dan
Twente, bijv. het westen van Nederland. Ik heb de indruk dat vooral
oudere mensen dit zeggen, het is aan het verdwijnen.
