Pfälzisch. Sprachkultur in der Pfalz und der Kurpfalz

Palatine in the broader sense extends far beyond the area that is now considered the Palatinate. This book deals with Palatine in the narrower sense, namely the dialects in the area corresponding to the former Bavarian Rhine Palatinate with the districts of St. Ingbert and Homburg, which belonged to it until 1919, as well as some places in the former district of St. Wendel. In addition, on the right bank of the Rhine, the area around Schwetzingen, Heidelberg, Mannheim, Weinheim, which belongs to Baden, as well as the area around Lampertheim and Viernheim in Hesse.From the contents:Chapter 1: The Palatine is a part of the Palatine ...................................................... 15On the difficulties with terms and boundariesChapter 2: Doo kahnshd gay voo dah pehfah vahksd ........................................................ 33From Palatine in the wide worldChapter 3: ein loß or schwins mutter ............................................................................... 58From Palatine in times pastChapter 4: Geeß, Gääß, Gäiß, Gaaß or Gååß? ............................................................... 81A chapter on the vocalism of PalatineChapter 5: Naal, Nachel, Naggel ........................................................................................ 95Consonants in PalatineChapter 6: Bäämche, Bäämel, Bäämcher, Bäämelcher, Bäämlich, Bäämle .................. 110Some information on Palatine syntax, word formation, syntax and intonationChapter 7: Butzle, Hutzele, Goggele, Biebelcher .............................................................. 151A foray into Palatine word geography and vocabularyChapter 8: Keschte, Konskrie, Kommersch, Kanuff, koscher ........................................... 176Foreign influences in Palatine vocabularyChapter 9: Accounts of Palatine vocabulary and dialects .......... 222The century-long work of the Palatine Dictionary - and other collectionsChapter 10: Palatine in literature and culture ....................................................... 255Palatine dialect poetry.
