User talk:Godtvisken

Hi Godvisken,

you asked about conjugation patterns in Low Saxon. I am not 100% sure what you meant. I think you asked about the double entries in Low German in the Grammar paragraph: wi slaapt vs. wi slapen.

This is a regional difference. Dialects in the central area have all 3 plural forms in the present tense on -t. The dialeacs in East Frisia and the Dialects in Mecklenburg and further east have -en. The -en is Dutch influence, in the West i.e. East Frisia, neighboring the Netherlands, as well as in the east. There it is usually explained with a dutch share in the Eastern colonization several hundred years ago.

Kind regards,

Heiko Evermann

Feel free to use that information. You do not need to paraphrase. The eastern colonization is explained in Drang nach Osten. The corresponding article in :de has much more details. The important passage is "Population growth during the High Middle Ages stimulated movement of peoples from the Rhenish, Flemish and Saxon territories of the Holy Roman Empire eastwards into the less-settled Baltic region and what is now Poland." The Flemish people brought their regional dialect with them. The resulting mixture of the eastern dialects of Low Saxon therefore shows some (but not many) characteristics of what later became Dutch.

Hello, Nice work on the Ásmegin article. Since you're the one who created it I was wondering if you would consider renaming it to Åsmegin (for now I redirected). I'm under the impression that Åsmegin is the correct spelling, although I'm not sure. Drop me a message. -- – sampi (talk•contrib) 01:10, 19 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Some websites (and people) seem to think the correct spelling in norwegian is with a 'Å'. Ironically, the norwegian wikipedia lists it as Asmegin. Anyway, if the official page calls them Ásmegin I guess its ok. -- – sampi (talk•contrib) 04:48, 26 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Dear Godtvisken

I am interested in the language you have created with the name Stersken, for me it seems like a mix of North Germanic languages, and i had no problem understanding your userbox. A google search returns only one result [1]. Did you know that your name in danish means Good whispering

Well, the subject says it all, basically. Where does one do it? I have some points I would like to discuss..

I suggest the Wikipedia:Village pump or the WikiEN-l mailing list. --  Netsnipe   ►  05:19, 17 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

CSD is the standard abbreviation for Wikipedia:Criteria for speedy deletion. Criterion A7 reads "An article about a real person, group of people, band, club, company, or web content that does not assert the importance or significance of its subject." It's not impossible I deleted an article under that criterion whose subject was wholly notable, but that this was impossible to know by reading what was present.

What Circeus meant to say is that he is sorry for using wikipedia language that not everyone is familiar with :) and that the content he might have deleted did not describe clearly why it was important enough to be in Wikipedia. If you like to know more wikipedia language take a look at Wikipedia:Glossary. --TheDJ (talk • contribs • WikiProject Television) 00:46, 3 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]
