[edit] Grunnengs

Is it appropriate to have this under the name Grunnengs which would be the native name ? Gronings is a word from the Dutch language, which is not the dialect of this encyclopedia. Sarcelles 06:55, 7 Jun 2005 (UTC)

I'm not sure what the correct name is in English. In Dutch, it's Gronings, and in Low Saxon and Gronings itself, it's Grunnengs. What you could do is create a new article Grunnengs which is a #REDIRECT to Gronings and use the template {{R from alternate language}} in the #REDIRECT page. Ae-a 19:46, 7 Jun 2005 (UTC)

I suggest to move it to the Gronings name. The current name is a bit strange. Sarcelles 02:01, 12 Jun 2005 (UTC)

I think some examples should be added in to see how Gronings can be seen as a intermediate dialect between Low German and Dutch. It can be and is defined as both as it is stated in the Dutch wikipedia as well. --Lucius1976 11:52, 16 January 2006 (UTC)
