Let me start this discussion again and try to express myself more clearly.
I posted a submission in Limburgan Lewieke and asked the question as to the existence of Limburgan, Limburger and Limburgisch in the list of languages.
This has now been corrected and we have only Limburgan.
Canary suggested to me yesterday that this submission should be altered to Dutch being a Dutch/Flemish dialect rather than a language in its own right.
As I take selfish pride in making submissions in Limburgan and Frisian I replied that, maybe, the list of languages should be expanded so that German becomes Swiss-German, Austrian German, Platt, Bavarian, Cologne dialect, etc.
I say that because I have friends here in Germany and I play them a cover in Austrian https://secondhandsongs.com/submission/101362 and they ask what language it is.
I know that Low German is a possibility in the list of languages but that is more a time-based criterion akin to Middle High German.
Then we get onto Chinese - Canton, Mandarin, etc.
