Old High German Phonology: Transcription

[@LuciaSims745]

I love old high german, I want to learn it ❤

[@williamhoffman9493]

I've read history of germanic languages by Watermann, Walshal's MHG grammer and reader, i studied Latin in HS, and ive got a reading fluency of German. Ive also studied Hogg's Grammer on Pennsylvania Deitsch. ( my grandparents spoke this. It's like Pfälzisch ( rhein Franconian ?). I've messed around with a couple OE grammers too. I've always been intimidated by OHG. I've tried to read the Mercerburg Zaubersprüche, and Hildebrand Lied. It's so inflected it looks like Latin. Am I ready for OHG?

[@jammehrmann1871]

Basically look at different dialects of german and be ready to learn more inflections, but in essence it (mostly) can resemble grrman if studied carefully and critically

Could you make a video abt OHG runic inscriptions?

[@Luftwaffle35]

Keep making videos man. I love it. As a follower of the Germanic old way i feel its my duty to talk to my gods and ancestors in there languages

The pronunciation of g as a fricative is certainly not southern, it is typical for Berlin and Eastfalia (roughly between Hannover and Göttingen).

[@jammehrmann1871]

Not in the sense listed here (intervocalically) where it is a voived stop in Berlin and Eastfalia, but final g's are mostly fricatives /x/ voiceless and due Low German influence in pronunciation of High German in these areas
