Slovene Hills dialect

The Slovene Hills dialect (Slovene: goričansko narečje,[1] goričanščina[2]) is a Slovene dialect in the Pannonian dialect group. It is spoken in the Slovene Hills (Slovene: Slovenske gorice) between the Drava and Mura rivers east of a line from Maribor to Šentilj v Slovenskih Goricah and west of a line from Radenci to Gradišče.[3][4]

Phonological and morphological characteristics

The Slovene Hills dialect features different reflexes of long etymological o and jat based on former tonemic differences, newly accented e is open, and r > ar. Neuter nouns have undergone feminization or maculinization, and plural locative and instrumental endings are typically characterized by an a vowel (e.g., -ah instead of -ih).[3]

gollark: TOML does still allow weird stuff like, say, IP addresses, to be handled as strings.
gollark: Look at JSON.
gollark: If you don't have a consistent format for dates and whatnot, bad things happen.
gollark: If everything was UTF-8 strings and then application-parsed they would all be handled slightly differently by each library and it would be bad.
