    More Info about Swabian German:
    Swabian German, known in German as "SchwÃĪbisch," is a dialect spoken in the southwestern part of Germany, mainly in the region of Baden-WÞrttemberg, including Stuttgart and the historical region of Swabia. The dialect is also spoken by the Swabian German minority in the Danube Valley in Romania.
    Swabian is a part of the Alemannic group of dialects, which are significantly different from standard German (Hochdeutsch) in phonetics, grammar, and vocabulary. This is the result of a distinct historical development in this region. It is interesting to note that some forms in Swabian are closer to the original forms of Old High German than the standard language.
    For native German speakers not accustomed to the Swabian dialect, understanding it can pose a challenge. While it shares a large portion of its vocabulary with Standard German, there are distinct differences in pronunciation, and it includes many unique words. Moreover, grammatical variations like different verb endings and article forms can make comprehension difficult for those unfamiliar with the dialect.
    In addition, the usage of Swabian varies by context. In formal settings or with outsiders, most Swabians switch to standard German, although often with a noticeable accent. Meanwhile, in informal or local settings, Swabian dialect is used more commonly.

      I think Scottish people's accents are advantageous for German. For instance when I say "Hello" in Germany, it isn't clear if I've just said it in German or English as the vowel sounds are the same. An American or someone from Essex would have to chage their pronounciation from "hello" when saying "hallo".

    Ein schÃķnes Beispiel dafÞr, wie stark deutsche Dialekte von der "Standardsprache" abweichen kÃķnnen. Ich habe diese Variante des SchwÃĪbischen bisher noch nie gehÃķrt, aber nachdem ich jahrelang diverse Schweizer Dialekte um mich herum gehÃķrt habe, die ja auch zum Alemannischen gehÃķren, kÃķnnte ich fast alles verstehen. Die drei Begriffe hatte ich jedenfalls schnell heraus (außer dass ich nicht wusste, welcher Raubvogel gemeint war).
    Ich fand es nur ein wenig schade, dass Katharinas Satzmelodie fÞr meine Ohren manchmal etwas unnatÞrlich klang oder ungewohnte Pausen hatte.

    IÂīm curious how many of those who learned Standard German as a second language actually understood SchwÃĪbisch which is a dialect which is part of the "Hochdeutsch/High German language family" and therefore by the way, way easier to understand than any dialects from the German North who are from the "Niederdeutsch/Low German language family"
    "Hochdeutsch/High German language family" includes all dialects from the German South + all dialects from Austria + Switzerland...the term "Hoch/High" is meant "geographical and refers to the higher sealevel of the Southern regions by the way = mountainous region/alpine region...basically meaning "Highland German"
    "Niederdeutsch/Low German language family" includes all dialects in the German North + dialects in the Netherlands and the flemish part of Belgium...the term "Nieder/Low" is meant geographical and refers to the "Lowlands" near the coast....basically meaning "Lowland German"

    Respect to all participants, it's really not that easy to follow even when you are a native german speaker.
    I am from Austria and had to concentrate quite a bit to get what she was saying.
    I think the riddles were maybe a little too unclear, especially the second and third one.
    The second one didn't really specify what bird exactly this was about,
    and the third one was also kind of an unusual word. I would have thought of a "Flechter" but didn't really find an english word for it.
    Google says "braider" but thats more of a hair stylist thing than working with wooden sticks.
    But it definitely lead to more communication which is the whole point I guess.

I am positive impressed you picked someone who really speaks a "deep" local dialect like on the country side and not the easy mode like in the capital Stuttgart or some town. My Swabian is a bit different, as there are local and regional and even confessional differences. But close enough. Respect. Over 15 years ago I moved to Poland and I switch every day between German, Swabian, English and Polish, very often in the fly. But the fun part is, as a lot of my friends and relatives moved somewhere else in Germany and lost more or less their Swabian, I am the most far away and still speak the deep, strong Version of our dialect.

    I was fascinated by the part at the end about the pronunciation of letters in the middle of a sentence. The pattern matches Celtic mutations! While Cornish is the only extant Celtic language to use a "k", the others use "c" instead, so substituting "c" for "k", in Irish Gaelic eclipsis, when a word starts with "c", a "g" is added in front, likewise, when a word starts with "t", a "d" is added and "p", a "b" is added. For the Welsh soft mutation, when a word starts with "c", it's replaced by a "g", if it starts with "t", it's replaced by a "d" and "p", a "b".

      Hebrew does something similar in some of the liturgical varieties that hold close to the ancient pronunciation. B becomes V, D becomes dh which is the sound you hear in words like this, that, then etc. G becomes GH which sounds like the French R, k becomes CH as in German,, P becomes F and T. becomes TH like in think, thirst, thrust, through.. obviously, there are actual Hebrew letters used in these instances but, I romanized a little bit for the sake of corresponding sounds. The letters change if they are in the middle or at the end of a word. Modern Hebrew does not do this to the same extent. Bet and Kaf and pei The only ones that phonetically do it although the others still do it on paper.

      In Welsh, it seems like a combination of mutations, perhaps the mixed mutation, b can become f (pronounced "v"), c to ch (same as the Irish pronunciation), d to dd (pronounced like the th in this), p to ph (pronounced "f") and t to th (pronounced like the th in thing).

    ooh, cool! I didn't know Swabian German also used schwetze. That's the usual word you'd use in Pa Dutch as well, which is of more Palatine bent. Ich kann e Bissli Deitsch schwetze.
    The zÃĪmma, reminds me of Pa Dutch zamme.
    Pa Dutch has 'der Woi' (though Habbich from Habbicht occurs also), for hawk.
    Also have Schtecke, the Ck there is pronounced similarly to the GG of Schdegga, but isn't written that way because other G's turn into either J's or really weak R's which there's no better way than simply G to spell

      @@TheDiamondBladeHD It's actually mostly Palatine oddly enough.
      Oddly because it's the result of dialect leveling, i.e. many people's dialects smoothed out into a (slightly) more homogenous mix
      But that mix is oddly similar to the dialects of High German spoken in the Kurpfalz (as the term is used to refer to Palatine areas of northern Baden-WÞrttemberg).
      The recognizing is probably more from being of a general southwestern origin more so than a particular Swabian influence, though there was a specific area whose name I forget in Pennsylvania which was settled by a group of Swabians, and if their Pa Dutch survives it may bear more Swabian influences.
      In terms of numbers it was mostly Palatines, Swiss from Berne, and Alsatians in descending order, and then other groups from Swabia, Silesia, northern Bavaria, etc.

I lost most of my dialect during my time at university, but I know how my older relatives would speak. I didn't find it hard to understand what Katharina was explaining, but I have never in my life heard the words for needle and basket. Those must be really local expressions. I also don't understand the expression "ma" in "ebbs ma fliega ka". I would say in SchwÃĪbisch: "ebbes was/wo fliega ka". And what's the deal with "dia denne"?

"Dia dÃĐnnɐ Å teggɐ ...". dÞnnen 1. gets unrounded (Þ > i) "dinne", 2. often in many Swabian parts, close i and u before nasals become more lowered towards close mid positions (i : Kind, in, finden, singen, simmer [sind wir] > Kend / KÊd, en, fendɐ, sengɐ, semmr | u : Hund, wundern, Hunger, rum und num > Hond / HÃīd, wondrɐ, Hongr, rom ond nom). Although, especially throughout East Swabian regions, and/or among younger speakers, i and u remain higher, thus I could also say "Dia dínnɐ Å teggɐ". Another interesting point about Swabian, the final loss of nasals (e.g. infinitive endings), the exact schwa at the end differs in some regions.

"Speyrer Linie", auch "ÄppelÃĪquator" oder "WeißwurschtÃĪquator" genannt, unterscheiden sich die mittel- von den oberdeutschen Dialekten erheblich.

So in your language barn is the whole building, while in swabian Barn means only the upper part of the building. In some german dialects a small knive is called Kneip instead of usual Messer.

      ​@@kalebind1Stimmt auch, aber im Englischen steht Hawk fÞr Falke, Habicht und Sperber.

      There is no official Swabian orthography so without hearing what you mean by "-ÃĢo", it is difficult to answer your question.
      If you mean the sound "ao" (German "a" plus German "o"), the answer is yes. For example in "lao" which is High German "lassen", English "to let".

      I won't speak for the whole Swabian landscape, but in some East Swabian parts (more rural), this ÃĢo can be found. For example, take Standard German "haben", there exists an alternative form "han", but it's obsolete in written Standard German. Basically, throughout the High German continuum, many dialects have this secondary form of haben, which developed during the early Middle High German stages, old "haben" (unstressed) became contracted, therefore the stem got stressed "hÃĒn". Today, in Alemannic (incl. Swabian) "han" is the common form. Many varieties kept the the nasal after a devoiced/unstressed vowel (han, hen etc.) though, while in many parts the final nasal loss had the upper hand (it's one of THE main features of the Alemannic family, besides the palatalization of old s). In Swabian it is still audible:
      For "hÃĢo"
      1. step: Already during the MHG stage the so called (East) Swabian diphthongization of ÃĒ (long a) became another feature, therefore, besides strÃĒzze, rÃĒt, ÃĒbent, stÃĒn, gÃĒn, lÃĒn you now got strauzze, raut, aubent, staun, gaun, laun, the same for hÃĒn > haun.
      2. step: The nasalization increased throughout the centuries, thus, the nasal loss created a new stress, resp. kept the hist. stress, where it might have been reduced otherwise.
      3. step: On the other hand, while ÃĒ diphthongized into au, hist. au (Baum, laufen, gelauben) partially experienced a monopththongization to Ãī, a phenomenon that is "almost" common among all dialects along the border between Alemannic and Bavarian. But this monophthongization started rather late, as for major regions, it only reached some kind of intermediate stage "ao" (i ao, glaoba, Baom - not to mention yet unstressed loffa, koffa, i glob etc.).
      Where the nasal quality of the diphthong is still existant, you would transcribe the examples mentioned above with "Strauß, Raut, Aobɐt > Ôbɐt, ÅĄtÃĢo, gÃĢo, lÃĢo, hÃĢo".
