==Dialects==
Northern Low Saxon can be divided into Holsteinian ({{lang|de|Holsteinisch}}), Schleswigian ({{lang|de|Schleswigsch}}), [[East Frisian Low Saxon]], Dithmarsch ({{lang|de|Dithmarsisch}}), North Hanoveranian ({{lang|de|Nordhannoversch}}), Emslandish ({{lang|de|Emsländisch}}), and Oldenburgish ({{lang|de|Oldenburgisch}}) in Germany,<ref>Noble, Cecil A. M. (1983). ''Modern German dialects'', New York
''{{lang|de|Holsteinisch}}'' is spoken in [[Holstein]], the southern part of [[Schleswig-Holstein]] in [[Germany]], in [[Dithmarschen]], around [[Neumünster]], [[Rendsburg]], [[Kiel]] and [[Lübeck]].
Line 44:
''{{lang|de|Oldenburgisch}}'' is spoken around the city of [[Oldenburg (city)|Oldenburg]]. It is limited to Germany. The main difference between it and [[East Frisian Low Saxon]], which is spoken in the Frisian parts of [[Lower Saxony]], is the lack of an East Frisian substrate. ''Oldenburgisch'' is spoken in the city of [[Bremen (city)|Bremen]] as ''"Bremian"'', which is the only capital where ''Oldenburgisch'' is spoken. [[Minden]] in [[Westphalia]], where ''Oldenburgisch'' is not spoken, possibly borders to the area.
