Blekinges dialect
- and signature dish
A landscape that contains so much does not have just one dialect or signature dish. The way the Blekinge people speak differs greatly from one end to the other. In the east, the dialect is, quite naturally, quite close to Smålandese with a deeply scratchy tongue root r. As you travel westwards, the dialect gradually changes and in Listerlandet it is the tongue-tipped r that applies, with those who speak "redi listalännska". The diphthongs, where a pair of adjacent vowels replace a consonant or two, are present throughout.
And then there are the typical dishes: lots Kroppkakor in the east and more and more herring sandwiches on wholemeal bread as you approach the Skåne border. But food in Blekinge is much more than that. Check out our pages on what and where to eat, drink and shop and expect your stomach to start rumbling.
