@Charlotte Apparently, Limburgs has recently been given the status of language. I was surprised as well. You can now even chose it as a language here on iTalki even.

@Lian, cool I didn't know! It is the language of my father and grandparents

The map seems correct. Some of those dialects combined are actual languages, and not just dialects. What exactly do you want to know?

EDIT I see you're German. The same type of map could be drawn for Germany/Austria/Switzerland. With ''friesisch', 'bayerisch', 'schwäbisch', 'schwiizerdütsch', uws.

There are many dialects in the Netherlands, but I think this map is VERY specific. On wikipedia you can find an other map:

As far as I know there are two official languages in the Netherlands: Dutch and Fries, I think Limburgs is a dialect or 'regonal language' (not counting the languages in the Caribian Dutch islands)
