ABSTRACT
Low Alemannic is the traditional name for the type of dialect spoken in Alsace and Baden, a region bisected by the Rhine, delimited in the west by the Vosges and in the east by the Black Forest (Schrambke 1983). This type of dialect is distinguished by a certain number of features, on the one hand from High Alemannic in the extreme south of Alsace and Baden, and, of course, in Switzerland, and on the other from Rhine Franconian in the Palatinate and Lorraine.
