Rhenish
As the Rhine different things and properties are referred to with the ( German ) Rheinland be associated, brought him or be associated typifying. It should be noted that, in terms of landscape, only a relatively small part of the land surrounding the Rhine is meant, which roughly corresponds to the Middle Rhine and the German part of the Lower Rhine .
Rhenish language
The term Rhenish language is used very inconsistently:
- instead of the more correct Rhenish pronunciation . This is a form of pronunciation of High German , also called Rhenish speech or Rhenish singsang . Well-known speakers were politicians like Joseph Goebbels (from Rheydt near Mönchengladbach ) or Konrad Adenauer (from Rhöndorf near Bonn ), who spoke pure High German in an intonation colored by their respective local dialect . Adenauer's way of speaking got - somewhat misleading for non-Rhinelander - the designation “ Familienkölsch ”. Well-known active politicians with Rhenish pronunciation today include Ulla Schmidt (from Aachen ), Jürgen Rüttgers (from Pulheim near Cologne ), Karl Lauterbach (from Düren ), Wolfgang Bosbach (from Bergisch Gladbach ), Martin Schulz (from Würselen ) and Armin Laschet ( From Aachen).
- for a Regiolekt . The so-called Rhenish Regiolect , which is the only Rhenish language to be a pure dialect of Standard German, must be regarded as the “improper Rhenish” language, so to speak . Because it has many differences and inconsistencies locally and regionally, is subject to strong, often rapid changes and is so difficult to differentiate, it is or was often “only” dismissed as colloquial language and treated rather disparagingly .
- as a generic term for the local languages of the following groups , arranged from south to north:
- the Moselle Franconian Group (from the Moselle to around Siegen )
- the Ripuarian group (from around Siegen, extensive areas around Cologne , including Aachen and the surrounding area)
- the Limburg (South Lower Franconian, South Rhine Maasland) - belonging to Dutch (crescent-shaped from north of Aachen near Heinsberg via Krefeld and the northern district of Neuss and Remscheid to near Wuppertal )
- the Kleverländische , the Dutch owned group, it is also considered part of Rheinmaasländischen group filed (to Kleve and Venlo to Wesel and Duisburg , Mülheim an der Ruhr , parts of Oberhausen , Essen-Werden , Langenberg (Rhineland) , Wuppertal to Apply )
The Rhenish fan is the collection of isoglosses that describe the linguistic boundaries between the Rhenish language forms and to the surrounding language areas. Its northernmost, the unit plural line , is considered to be the border to the Westphalian dialects to the north and east, while the Uerdinger line, the most likely border between the Central German languages and the Lower Franconian language area, runs across the Rhenish language area.
