    Swabian dialect in south-west germany

    The dialect in south-west germany known as swabian or allemanic has a lot of strange words, which are not relative to other known languages.
    In addition the variance of different subclades of R1b1b2 especially R-U152 and R-L21 is very high.

    Anyone any ideas?
