Hianzisch

As Hianzisch, Heanzisch or Hoanzisch ( Hungarian Hiénc ) that dialect was called in the 19th and into the second half of the 20th century , which is spoken in " Heanzenland ", large parts of the Austrian state of Burgenland and is one of the Central Bavarian dialects. Today the term - apart from its use in oral care organizations such as the Hianzenverein - has become unusual.

characterization

The dialect of Burgenland is south-central Bavarian and is the approximate eastern continuation of the dialects spoken in Lower Austria and Eastern Styria. Because the area lies to the east of the strong, centuries-old border between Austria and the Kingdom of Hungary and there were only few western trade relations, it remained linguistically conservative and preserved features that had disappeared to the west in the Vienna Basin. These include the diphthongs / ei / for Middle High German (mhd.) / E / + / ö / and / ou / for mhd. / O / and / ui / for mhd. / Uo /, z. B. beit 'bed', oufa 'oven', bui 'boy'. It is also characterized by partly preserved older vocabulary.

Further examples for the typical ui sound:

Middle High German	Bavarian	Hianzisch	Standard German
good	guad	guid	Well
muoter	Muada	Muida	mother
schuoche	Schua	Shui	Shoes
ruo (we)	Rua	Rui	Quiet
huot	Huad	Huid	cap
enough	gnua	gmui	enough
search	suachn	suicha	search
zuo	zua	zui	to
do	Do it	Tui	cloth
kruoc	Gruag	Grui	jug

Example sentence : Di Muida and da Bui tuin gmui Fuida fia d'Kui in déi tuife Trui.

Further examples of the ei sound: gwéin (been), Léida (leather), séi (she).

The use of si instead of es is also peculiar , e.g. B. si réignt (it's raining), si tuit wéih (it hurts).

Heinzenland

When looking for a name for the new and youngest federal state, which was created in 1921, one of the suggestions was: " Heinzenland ", to name the state after the dialect spoken there. Where the name “Hianzn, Heanzn” comes from is controversial. The theories range from "Heinz" (historically then referring to "Heinrich's followers" of the Bavarian Duke Heinrich des Zänkers , the Austrian Duke Heinrich Jasomirgott , the Güssing Count Heinrich or Henz up to the Salier Emperor Heinrich IV. ) To a derision due to the Pronunciation of hianz instead of the usual Bavarian hiaz "now" in what was then German-West Hungary .
