▲The '''Niemodlin dialect''' ({{lang-pl|gwary niemodlińskie}}, Silesian: ''djalykt ńymodliński ślůnskij godki'', pronunciation: {{IPA|ˈdjalɨkt ɲɨmɔˈdliɲski ˈɕlunskʲij ˈɡɔtki}}) is a [[Silesia]]n dialect, used in the parts of [[Niemodlin]] city, now in [[Poland]]. Linguists differ in the classification of this dialect, some consider it a dialect of [[Silesian language|Silesian]]<ref>Zaręba Alfred, ''Szkice z dialektologii śląskiej''; [[Katowice]]: Śląski Instytut Naukowy, 1988 - 504 s.: mapy, 1 portr.</ref>, some of the [[Polish language]]<ref>B. Wyderka, Jakoś ty to pedzioł? (część II), "Indeks. Pismo Uniwersytetu Opolskiego" 2005 nr 61-62, s. 31. Por. B. Wyderka, O wielojęzyczności Śląska, "Indeks. Pismo Uniwersytetu Opolskiego" 2004 nr 55-56.</ref>. It slightly differs from standard Silesian by having a characteristic pronunciation called ''masuring'' (mazuřyńy), which means that the group of consonants ''č š ž dž'' are pronounced as the alveolars ''c s z dz'' ([[International Phonetic Alphabet|IPA]]: {{IPA|[ts]}}, {{IPA|[s]}}, {{IPA|[z]}}, and {{IPA|[dz]}}, respectively). In Niemodlin Silesian [[phonology]] a nasalized vowel '''y''' ({{IPA|[ɨ̃]}}) may also occur.
