Register or Login to view.My lalamo says that the German spoken in the Frankfurt area differs from standard German in ways that resemble the A/B differences: "swallows word endings (e.g., haben becomes hawn), and changes the "ch" sound to a soft "sch" sound (making ich sound like isch)".  It also tells me that Norwegian and Danish are almost the same language, but Norwegian pronunciation is "clear, uses distinct pitch accents (tones), and consonants are pronounced crisply" whereas in Danish "soft consonants like d, g, and b often turn into semi-vowels or disappear entirely", and there is a phonemic glottal catch that is absent in Norwegian.

I checked you on this theory already in another thread, and the changes do not even come remotely close! I will reshare the chart so you stop using this as an explanation.

The differences are far greater than the German differences you are mentioning. They are an entire order of magnitude off from the observed differences.
