Template:etyl:Austrian German[edit]

And its redirect, Template:etyl:AG.. We already have {{bar}} for Austro-Bavarian, so this template isn't really needed. —CodeCat 12:16, 27 June 2011 (UTC)Reply

Hang on. I believe this template is used to designate the variety of Standard German as spoken in Austria (i. e. Category:Austrian German), and not the actual language. -- Prince Kassad 13:04, 2 July 2011 (UTC)Reply
But are there any words specific to that variety of standard German that don't originate from Austro-Bavarian? It seems to me that one origin would imply the other. —CodeCat 10:41, 5 July 2011 (UTC)Reply
Be that as it may, if a word comes from Language A and, earlier, from Language B, we want to document that it comes from Language A, don't we? I mean, if English had several hundred words from Spanish and they all happened to come from Latin (which is not true, just an example), we'd nonetheless want to document that the words came via Spanish.​—msh210 (talk) 15:38, 7 July 2011 (UTC)Reply
We have Category:Picard language and Category:Picard French. So I'm thinking keep in lack of a reason to delete this. Mglovesfun (talk) 12:47, 9 July 2011 (UTC)Reply
