| | Frysk en Frij |
 | | The Frisian was to be free to defend himself against the sea and the attack of the Òwild VikingÓ (Mahmood 2). | | | At the peak of their power, the Frisians dominated the entire North sea shore, as evidenced by its former name the Mare Frisicum, or the ÒFrisian SeaÓ (Jellema). | | | As a minority language, Frisian has been subject to ridicule and stereotyping. |

| | Language general |
| | This hypothesis would explain the strong dialectic variation in modern Frisian. | | | This will concern analogic adaption to the disyllabic verbs, which in West Frisian also lead to appending of -n in the infinitiv. | | | In that way West Frisian will have reconstructed itself to a new language unity. |
