Dialects [ edit ] The following grouping of the Central dialects is largely based on Krahnke’s observations (pp. 259-65), but also on the notes by Yarshater (1985) and LeCoq (1989). It coincides essentially with Krahnke’s northwest-southwest patterns. As Krahnke notes, given the isoglottic diversity, the members of each of these “groups” share only a few traits exclusively with each other, while there are intersections with other groups. Accordingly, the groupings reflect areal tendencies rather than discrete groups. The following schematic classification of the Central dialects may be proposed.
