The Bremian dialect (Template:Lang-nds) is the dialect of Low German spoken in the city of Bremen. It originates from the Oldenburgisch dialect.

Classification

Bremian is classified as a Northern Low Saxon dialect since it derives from the Oldenburgisch dialects.[1] This means that it comes from West Low German.[2] Bremian also shares the most mutual intelligibility with the Northern Oldenburgisch dialect.[3]

It also means that Bremian's "sister dialects" are the aforementioned Northern Oldenburgisch dialect, which is spoken in the former County of Oldenburg, and is a more pure dialect,[4] Southern Oldenburgisch, spoken in the southern parts of the district and Hanover,[5] and Jeverland Oldenburgisch, spoken in the Jeverland area of East Frisia, which has influences from East Frisian Low Saxon.[6]
