List of Low German dialects

This article or the following section is not adequately provided with supporting documents ( e.g. individual evidence ). Information without sufficient evidence could be removed soon. Please help Wikipedia by researching the information and including good evidence.
The further subdivisions of North Low Saxon, East Faelic, Brandenburg, Mecklenburg-West Pomeranian, Middle Pomeranian, East Pomeranian, Low Prussian and the Lower Saxon dialects in the Netherlands have not yet been documented.
This article or section needs to be revised: In addition to missing evidence, the subject of Dutch as the umbrella language is also out of date due to the assumption of a continental West Germanic dialect continuum and the recognition of the untenability of nationalism as a basis for classification. In addition, the Lower Franconian dialects of Germany were missing, for which Dutch is not an umbrella language, if the outdated division is used.

Dialect list including the structure of the Low German language or the Low German dialect continuum.

The Low Franconian dialects of the Netherlands were also counted among the Low German dialects until the 1980s. Today the Lower Franconian language branch is considered independent by most researchers due to the emphasis on Dutch as the umbrella language.

Low German is divided into:

Lower Saxon

Lower Saxony is also called West Low German. Some authors understand Lower Saxon to mean Low German without Lower Franconian as a whole, while others understand West Low German to be Lower Saxony and Lower Franconian as opposed to East Low German. Lower Saxony includes:

Lower Saxon dialects in the Netherlands

Northern Lower Saxony

Sometimes North Low Saxon is also called North Low German. These include:

Westphalian

These include:

Ostfälisch
