Frank has made an excellent start on a geographical description of German dialects. Just two comments: 1. The map and text ignore areas that were linguistically German until WWII. I'm sure that this is a shortcoming of his source. 2. I didn't know that Italic was a German dialect. ;-) (Italic --> italisch oder, in diesem Fall, kursiv) =Jim Eggert EggertJ@LL.mit.edu
