Hello, I vagually remember reading on your Ask 19 century doctor prussia blog, that Gilbert calls Ludwig his Gnascherl (?). Where did you find that?
Because instinctually I would say it's Austrian. Do you maybe have a source or smth?
PS: I in no way do I want to come of as mean/arrogant just genuinely curious. I also really love how you characterise Gil
Hey there! I pulled that from the wikipedia article on the Low Prussian dialect, which you can find here! There's a section a little further down that talks about some words that are shared across other German dialects like Plautdietsch and Gnaschel is mentioned!
And don't worry, you didn't come off as mean / arrogant at all! I am curious though that you thought it was Austrian 👀👀 I wonder if there's a similar term!
#ramblings#thank you for clarifying your tone though#i genuinely appreciate it!!#but yeah if we wanna get real specific#my gil speaks samlandic!#ostsamlaendisch to be exact since that's what was spoken#around koenigsberg#also schischke is a personal fave word here#i just think it sounds neat
