Thanks, Rheinhart, I appreciate your reply. No, I was not expecting such a
long response, but I am an avid language aficionado. Thanks,
Ben

I happen to know that detailed dialectical information of Limburgish and
Brabantish (both spoken in the Netherlands and Belgium) is now available
online. I believe that almost all information is digitally available, and
the
internet-database is growing.

The address is http://www.kun.nl/dialect . However, pages are available in
Dutch only. It is just an example of using current techniques. So far, the
databases for flora and fauna are available, and it is possible to search
for a
certain key word, but you can also type in the name of a city or village,
and
all the relevant information is shown.

regards,
Mathieu


Leeve Mathieu,

ick heff tau minner Ohnen von 't Flaams, ook Däänsch.

Mann- mi dücht, wat datt in Jau' n Lannen 'n lütt beeten anners is ass in
Düütschland.

Wees 't ne düll- blauts: Düütschland is 'n beeten grötter as Belgien or
Danmark, un' door fangt dat Theoter an.
Dat "Net" is best- anner geef 't joo ook heel kein LL-L.
Mann- föör elk eein Stadt un Dörp 'n "Sprookföhrer" (E: "language guide") is
ook door eider unwoorschienlick.

Tau 'n Biispeel:

(E): "hay", (UG): "Heu" heit bi uns ook in (LS): "Heu". 'n Stücker watt 10
km no Nöörn (över de Elv, no Hollsteein) heit dat meerstendeels (LS): "hei"
(spoken similar to E: hay), un' noo de Süüd, jüst man 20 km, heit dat (LS):
"hau" (spoken like E. "how").

Mi dücht, dat sünt bannige Ünnerscheeden för mi as "nativus". Föör uns
Lowlanners is dat man 'n lütten "Wüpp" över 'n "Goordentuun", ass Ron seggen
deei.

Dat "Net" schall uns door woll ne sau recht helpen köön 'n, dücht mi. Man
gaud sau!

Fiete.
