Dutch Low Saxon is a dialect group that is spoken in the northeastern
Netherlands. Roughly, the southwestern part speaks a
Low Franconian language. The classification of Dutch Low Saxon is not unanimous. From a point of view, it is classified as a
Low German variety. This classification is reflected in the name Dutch Low Saxon, Low Saxon (Nedersaksisch) being a synonym of Low German (Nederduits) that is more commonly used in the Netherlands. From a strictly point of view, however, some linguists classify it as a variety of
Dutch. Some forms of Dutch Low Saxon show features of
Westphalian, a West Low German dialect spoken in
Germany.
