The popular language of the north of England is particularly remarkable for its agreement with the dialects found in the peninsula of Jutland. Several words which are common to the north of England and Jutland, are not to be found elsewhere. For instance, in the north of England, the shafts of the carts used there are called _limmers_, a word clearly of the same origin as the Jutlandish _liem_, a broom; both being derived from the old Scandinavian _limi_, which signifies _boughs_, _branches_. But it is the broad pronunciation in particular that makes the resemblance so surprising. Thus, for instance, we have in the north of England, _sty’an_ (_Dan._, Steen; _Eng._, a stone), _yen_ (_Dan._, een; _Eng._, one), welt (_Dan._, vælte; _Eng._, to upset), _swelt_ (_Dan._, vansmægte; _Eng._, overcome with heat and exercise), _maw_ (_Dan._, Mave; _Eng._, stomach), _lowe_ (_Dan._, Lue; _Eng._, flame), _donse_ (_Dan._, dandse; _Eng._, dance), _fey_ (_Dan._, feie; _Eng._, to sweep), _ouse_ (_Dan._, Oxe; _Eng._, ox), _roun_ (_Dan._, Rogn; _Eng._, spawn or roe of fishes), _war and war_ (_Dan._, værre og værre; _Eng._, worse and worse); with many others of the same kind, which are pure Jutlandish. On the whole, of all the Danish dialects the Jutland approaches nearest to the English. The West Jutlander uses the article _æ_ before words like the English “the,” although the Danish language in other provinces does not recognise such an article; and the broad open _w_, which the natives of Funen and Zealand can, after the greatest difficulty, only pronounce with tolerable correctness, is as easy for the Jutlander as for the Englishman. Many Danish words pronounced in Jutlandish become purely English; as, for instance, _foul_ (_Eng._, fowl; _Dan._, Fugl), _kow_ (_Eng._, cow; _Dan._, Ko), _fued_ (_Eng._, food; _Dan._, Fod), _stued_ (_Eng._, stood; _Dan._, stod), _drown_ (_Eng._, drown; _Dan._, drukne); besides many others. Many words are even quite common to Jutland and England; such as the Jutlandish _forenoun_ and _atternoun_ (_Eng._, forenoon and afternoon; _Dan._, Formiddag and Eftermiddag), _stalker_ (_Eng._, stalker; _Dan._, en Stork), _kok_ (_Eng._, cock; _Dan._, en Hane), _want_ (_Eng._, to want; _Dan._, mangle, behöve).
