===Varieties=== There are several distinct dialect forms of Luxembourgish including Areler (from [[Arlon]]), Eechternoacher ([[Echternach]]), Dikrecher ([[Diekirch]]), Kliärrwer ([[Clervaux]]), Miseler ([[Moselle (river)|Moselle]]), Stater ([[Luxembourg City]]), Veiner ([[Vianden]]), Minetter (Southwest Luxembourg) and Weelzer ([[Wiltz]]). Further small vocabulary differences may be seen even between small villages. These varieties are grouped into North, East, South, and Center dialects which can be automatically categorised with a correctness of about 80%.<ref>Nina Hosseini-Kivanani, Christoph Schommer, Peter Gilles. 2025.
