Bavarian language, a group of closely related Upper German dialects
Kümmel is the German word for caraway, and weck means "roll" in the south-western German dialects of the Baden and Swabia areas (northern Germans generally say Brötchen), although the kind of weck used for this sandwich in America tends to be much softer and fluffier than a standard German Kümmelbrötchen or Kümmelweck.
Central Germany (linguistics) is the region where the Central German dialects are spoken
Whereas some are found only in the southern parts of Alemannic (which includes Swiss German) or Bavarian (which includes Austrian), most are found throughout the Upper German area, and some spread on into the Central German dialects.
Throughout its almost 200-year history in Southern Brazil and Espírito Santo, Hunsrückisch has been greatly influenced by other German dialects such as Pomeranian, Swabian, and Austro-Bavarian, by other immigrant languages, and by Portuguese.
Central German (Mitteldeutsch), the general term for dialects in Central Germany - the northernmost High German dialects.
