It’s always so crazy to me that the Hungarians seem to miss the Hapsburgs far more than the Austrians do

I don't think they really give a poo poo about the Habsburgs specifically.

They really liked being the top subject underneath Hapsburg dominion so they could pick on all the rest and reap the benefits of Hapsburg imperialism.

Yeah, but you don't really need the Habsburgs back for that is my point. They want the big Hungary back.

They'll just go way in the opposite direction and gently caress pigs and horses instead.

Preventative guillotine in advance imo.

I really wish someone came up with a nicer version of this dialect map, because it contains an incredible amount of information but it's hard to see past all the color choices.

I feel like this guy started his project a long time ago with less options for mapmaking tools, and now it's just stuck like that. Possibly there have been significant linguistic changes in the intervening years even.

Although given how any part of the map has to be denoting 2-4 phoneme tendencies at once, I'm not sure how you do depict that cleanly. And then he puts all his notes on the map itself, making it more messy, and no less than 10 cutouts to depict things that didn't fit or zoomed-in areas (including a zoom-in on a zoom-in in Maryland).

Most maps made by linguists are incredibly ugly. It's usually a better idea to devote a linguistic map to one particular feature (e.g. the word for 'ladybird' across several dialect groups) and even then it sometimes ends up looking incredibly messy.

Fake edit: have a map of the word the Dutch dialects of Belgium use for 'barb wire'.
