Hello Lowlanders,
My computer has been repaired after a couple of months for rebuild and I 
have finally read most of the mail on the list. I need some help with foody 
words. I realise there will be many variations for a word based on various 
dialects and this is what I am looking for. I have put my best guesstimate 
down for the Limburgs and Frisian and am hoping for more variations. I would 
also like it if Ron or Ingmar could give me the words in Low Saxon.
