Harlingerland Frisian is an extinct dialect of the East Frisian language.[1] It was known for giving several features originally in Old Frisian.[2] The language was only documented in the year 1691 with the book Memoriale linguae Frisicae, by Johann Cadovius-Müller.[3] This dialect then slowly vanished and was displaced by the Harlings dialect of Low German.[4] It belonged to the Weser dialects alongside the Wursten and Wangerooge Frisian dialects.

Dan dienen is dät Riek un ju Krääft un ju Heerdelkaid bit in alle Eeuwigaid. Amen. |
