Dialect Question

Posted by Gunnar H on 2010-06-02 02:47:14

The Lilliput dictionary has a suggestion: Des Fränkischen wenig Kundige lässt man raten, wos a oozullds Buddlesbaa is. You let people with limited knowledge of Franconian guess what 'a oozullds Buddlesbaa' is. A in standard German is ein, oo is the prefix ab, oozullds is abgenagtes or abgesaugtes, Buddles comes from the Buddbuddbudd call commonly heard in rural areas to summon chickens, and Baa is Bein. Easy?
