phenomenology
A certain affinity to the " u " is noticeable . Often vowels (especially " o ") are replaced by a "u" or shifted in the direction of a "u":
- Summer sun → Summasunn [ˈsʊmasʊn]
- so → sou (the o is also spoken) [soʊ]
- whence → wuhea [vʊˈhɛɐ]
- Bag → Gugge (l) [ˈgʊgə] or Dudde [ˈdʊdə]
However, “ironing” becomes “bichln” (length of the “i” like that of the “ü”). Or biggle [ˈbɪglə]
Unless it is split into two syllables, " st " becomes " sch " or " schd ":
- do you have → hosch (d) (you) [hɔʃ (d)]
- Hamster → Hamschda / Homschdor [ˈhamʃdɐ]
- Mist → Mischd (e) [ˈmɪʃd (ə)]
- Box → kaschde [ˈkaʃdə]
" He " as a final syllable is pronounced as " a ":
- Flieger → Fliga [ˈfliːgɐ]
- Master → Meeschdor (or Meeschda or Moischda, depending on the place) [ˈmeːʃdɐ]
The belittling " ... chen " is almost always spoken in the singular as " ... le " and in the plural as " ... li ":
- Bunny → Häsle [ˈheːslə] → Häsli [ˈheːsl]
- Girl → girl [ˈmeːdlə] → girl [ˈmeːdlɪ]
- Little humps → Höggerle [ˈhœgɐlə] or Heggerle [ˈhəgɐlə] → Höggerli [ˈhœgɐlɪ] or Heggerli [ˈhəgɐlɪ]
Consonants are "softened":
- super → subba [ˈsʊbɐ]
