Group of Norwegian dialects
Hallingmål-Valdris (also known by the individual namesHalling ,Hallingdøl , orValdresmål ) is a group ofNorwegian dialects traditionally spoken in thetraditional districts ofHallingdal inBuskerud county andValdres inInnlandet county.[ a]
/rn/ is usually realized as a prestopped nasal[dn̩] , while the allophone[ɳ] only occurs in words likebaren ([bɑːɳ] )[ 4] "the bar".[ 5] [ b] /rl/ also has a prestopped realization[dl] .[ 5] The phoneme which is commonly calledthick L (written/ɽ/ inIPA ), exists in words that had either⟨l⟩ or⟨rð⟩ in Old Norse. InVang Municipality ,/ɽ/ occurs only in the first case.[ 7] The consonant clusters⟨sk⟩ ,⟨skj⟩ , and⟨sj⟩ were not pronounced as[ʂ ] , only⟨-rs-⟩ was.[ 8] Sørbygdi inFlå Municipality pronounces⟨sj⟩ as[ʂ] , whileGulsvik pronounces it as[ʂj] .[ 9] The consonant clusters⟨sl⟩ and⟨tl⟩ were mostly assimilated to[sl] .Hol Municipality andÅl Municipality assimilated these to[l̥] ,[ 10] [ 11] and Sørbygdi inFlå Municipality assimilated⟨sl⟩ to[ʂl] .[ 9] The clusters⟨-ld⟩ ,⟨-nd⟩ and⟨-mb⟩ are pronounced as spelled.[ 12] [ 13] [ 14] TheOld Norse cluster⟨-fn⟩ is pronounced as assimilated[bdn] or[bn] .[ 13] Theback vowels [ʊ, uː] and[ɔ, oː] in older Hallingmål-Valdris were pronounced as inOld Norse , without thevowel shift to, respectively,[ʉ, ʉː] and[ʊ, uː] that is found in most other Norwegian dialects.[ 15] [ 16] The short Old Norse vowels⟨o⟩ and⟨ö⟩ are pronounced as central[ɞ ] almost everywhere, except forÅl Municipality (but notTorpo ), where these are back[ɔ ] .[ 7] [ 17] [ 18] InValdres (except forVang Municipality ), the schwa/ə/ can also be realized as[ɞ ] .[ 7] Traditionally,/æ, æː/ were pronounced as open-mid[ɛ ,ɛː ] .[ 15] The words pronounced[e(ː)] and[ɛ(ː)] mean "I" and "am", respectively.[ 15] Itacism is found in southern Hallingdal (Flå Municipality ,Nesbyen Municipality and some inGol Municipality ), making the vowel/yː/ to be unrounded to[iː ] .[ 19] The Old Norse diphthongs⟨ei⟩ ,⟨ey⟩ and⟨au⟩ are traditionally pronounced as[aɪ̯] ,[ɔʏ̯] ([eɪ̯] in southern Hallingdal)[ 19] and[aʊ̯] . This is occurs today especially in upperValdres andHol Municipality , andÅl Municipality .[ 7] [ 8] Declension of nouns[ 20] [ 21] [ c] Gender Singular Plural Indefinite Definite Dative Indefinite Definite Dative Feminine Strong (withi - declension) [suːɽ] [suːɽɛ] [suːɳ] [ˈsuːˈɽɛ] ,[ d] [ˈsuːˈɽi] [ e] [ˈsuːɽˈidn̩] [ˈsuːˈɽu] Strong (witha -decl.)
