Angel Danish

Angel Danish was a variant of South Jutlandic spoken in the regions of Angeln and Schwansen in Southern Schleswig partly until the 20th century. Both landscapes belonged to the Danish Duchy of Schleswig until 1864, since then to Germany.
Characteristic of Angel Danish was, among other things, the tonal pitch accent and the fricative for the hard G. There were also elevations from /o/ to /u/. There were also older Nordic forms such as hvénner, mjølk or gut. However, there were also adoptions from German such as teller or hunger.
The dialect has never been an official school or church language. In the 18th and 19th centuries, Angel Danish was increasingly replaced by Low and High German. The last record of the dialect was made in northern Angeln in the 1930s. A travelogue from 1813 documents the language change from Angel Danish to German in Swania in the first half of the 19th century.
