Talk:Åland dialects

Nåssådå
Isn't nåssådå derived from "Nå så då" (Roughly "well then, then") or is that a mistaken guess. 惑乱 Wakuran (talk) 12:39, 8 December 2009 (UTC)
 * And the pronunciation of "stöpsel" indicates a loan directly from German, not taking the way via Russian. 惑乱 Wakuran (talk) 23:54, 3 June 2015 (UTC)

Åland Swedish → Åländska – The current title seems made up by Wikipedia editors; I cannot find a single online use of it outside of this article, not even in unreliable sources. Article titles states that "If there are too few reliable English-language sources to constitute an established usage, follow the conventions of the language appropriate to the subject" (which, in this case, is clearly Swedish itself).

 * I am neutral but will point out possible alternative titles: "Åland dialect of Swedish" or "Ålandic dialect (of Swedish)" . An English title is more recognizable to readers.

 * All of those (besides Western Åland Swedish, which you got from ResearchGate) sound clunky to me. Glades12 (talk) 05:54, 24 April 2020 (UTC)
 * Support per nom.--Ortizesp (talk) 04:45, 25 April 2020 (UTC)
 * According to the Finnish Thesaurus and Ontology Service entry, the term that libraries etc. should use in English is Åland dialects. Plural because there are Eastern and Western Åland dialects. I support either "Åland dialects" or "Åland dialect". Also, this is common naming in Wikipedia (Category:Dialects by language). Can you reconsider your position because of this source, & ? --Pudeo (talk) 17:01, 29 April 2020 (UTC)
 * I'd support your suggestions, either works.--Ortizesp (talk) 17:09, 29 April 2020 (UTC)
 * That works too, I suppose. Not sure whether I should revoke my original statement. Glades12 (talk) 17:49, 29 April 2020 (UTC)
