Thread:Project:Translator/ li Limburgs – Limburgs

I would like to make an alternative interface for Limburgish. The standard one is in AGL, a little-used artificial standard language which some find unsatisfactory. Users would certainly prefer interfaces in their own dialects. I am fluent in Maastricht dialect, which is at more than 60,000 speakers by far the most widely spoken of all Limburgish dialects, into which I would like to translate the interface.

In case anyone may question the legitimity of this: we have already interfaces in languages and dialects that may never get their own Wikipedia. Also, we have alternative translations into such subtly different variants as Austrian Standard German or formal German. A few more in major Limburgish dialects won't bother anyone. After Maastricht dialect, the speeches of Venray, Venlo, Roermond, Hasselt, Kerkrade and Krefeld my follow (not to be done by me, to be sure).

A proof of the dialects being sufficiently different from each other can be given on request.
