Distribution area

The dialect was spoken in the Sudetes , in the south of the former Prussian provinces of Lower Silesia  and Upper Silesia as well as in the north of Moravia and Austrian Silesia and in the extreme northeast of Bohemia . The dialects spoken in the Lusatian Bergland and the County of Glatz were not seen as part of mountain Silesian. After the flight and displacement of the German-speaking population after the Second World War , this dialect is largely only spoken in the diaspora and is acutely threatened with extinction .

vocabulary

The mountain Silesian spoken in the Sudeten region was a very differentiated dialect. Even the inhabitants of villages not far from each other had a linguistic peculiarity. In general, Mountain Silesian is part of East Central German, but with terms that come from the Polish or Czech language .

Recit.
I? Should the person still have to take?
I? Berna-Caspers-Paltzer's Moid?
Ju nahma wielchse uffs Gewissa.

Doas wiel I wull ne Lüga strohffa,
I hoase mie as twenty mohl
Uffs Hä läht, an do Beschlohffa;
Allene doachs nahma sohl,
doas ihs nu wuhl ke warck ver mich.

Aria.
Su eh Pursche, as I am,
does not grow into alla Zoima.
Ju spoiled! ver su an Nickel
Think me, if I were to go to Brickel
Goarze once more.
Su ah Pursche, as I am,
does not grow into alla Zoima.

SILESIAN FARMER CANTATE Daniel Stoppe (1728)


Ols enser Herrgott hot amol, dan green forest daschoffen
Do hot a my soul probably ice black nei met,
Because ensre A'de, dos wes Got hot seemers never to point,
and wa'n forest ols Heimat hot da should praise each other happily.
Mei green Schles', she holds ols bride dan green forest emschlonga,
because Lord God hot dos Poor married and the angels hons besonga
And I lame myself to the last rest, amol still dan companion,
then best German country girl you, my last green bed.
And when God speaks, you
Megst nuff fly a sky? Though I lost myself a peace of
mind sender lying around .
Because there is a kingdom of heaven
since the forest never seemed to rustle,
why should I swap my green Silesian for the kingdom of heaven
.

MEI GRÜNE SCHLES Viktor Heeger
