Aktualitéiten, Diskussionen um BlogVon Maike Edelhoff 16. März 2016 Kommentar hinterlassen

Wie denn das Insekt mit großen bunten Flügeln heiße, lautete eine Frage aus meiner Befragung. Natürlich ging es nicht darum, eine Antwort auf Standarddeutsch zu erhalten, sondern darum, wie die Teilnehmer dieses Insekt entweder in ihrem moselfränkischen Ortsdialekt (auf deutscher Grenzseite) oder auf dem Luxemburgisch ihres Heimatortes benennen würden.

Wann de Marketing mat der lëtzebuergescher Orthographie kollidéiert
