Language ??? edit

There is no "Transylvanian Saxon language". It is just a German dialect, a variety of the Moselle Franconian dialects. The article should be renamed into Transylvanian Saxon dialect. --Olahus (talk) 17:36, 14 June 2010 (UTC)Reply

But why not possible the moving? Who was blocked the article? Doncsecztalk 06:24, 15 July 2010 (UTC)Reply

Speakers of Standard High German have no chance of understanding this dialect, hence, from the point of linguistic distance, it can easily be called an own language. It also has its own written and printed literature, music, poems, etc. And it is historically documented for several hundreds of years. It is easier for modern German speakers to understand the Pennsylvania German language in the United States (which in Wikipedia we call a language) than to understand Transyvanian Saxon. The first isolated from today's German about 300 years ago, the second more than 800 years. --El bes (talk) 16:50, 6 March 2016 (UTC)Reply
