低ザクセン語
Westphalian or Westfalish (Standard High German: ', Standard Dutch: ') is one of the major dialect groups of West Low German. Its most salient feature is its diphthongization (rising diphthongs). For example, speakers say "iäten" () instead of "etten" or "äten" for "to eat". (There is also a difference in the use of consonants "within" the Westphalian dialects: North of the Wiehengebirge, people tend to speak unvoiced consonants, south of the Wiehengebirge they voiced their consonants, e.g. "Foite" &gt; "Foide".)
