  1. Among dialect scholars in Finland some want to name the dialect of #Kronoby as the most archaic. As a researcher specialised in #vocalism I willingly subscribe to that: unlike #Närpes (and unlike #Icelandic) no secondary diphthongisation and better preserved #OldNorse syllable quantity. Unlike some #FennoSwedish dialects a distinction is maintained between öi (vf. #WestNorse ey) and öu (cf. West Norse au) kronomagasinet.wordpress.com/o

  6. Before taking on harder subjects, let’s debunk a myth circulating in Finland and Sweden: No! The dialect in #Närpes or #Närpesiska is not the ”oldest” #FennoSwedish dialect! And moreover, it has remarkably little in common with “Swedish spoken in Stockholm in the 1500s” (see link). The myth is fuelled by the impression that “incomprehensible”=“archaic”. In fact Närpesiska is incomprehensible mainly for the opposite reason: it is full of phonological innovations. svenska.yle.fi/a/7-1281219
