sentences:  The Municipality of Poggersdorf/Pokrče is still bilingual with German dominance.Historically however, it belonged to the linguistic area of the autochthonous Slovenian language or dialect of the plain of Klagenfurt (called "poljanski govor" or "poljanščina Celovškega Polja"), which is a central dialect respectively of transition of the so-called Slovenian dialect of the valley of Rosental ("Rož") (the latter being formally called "rožanščina", in German "Rosentaler Dialekt") and the dialect of the valley of Jauntal ("Podjuna") (respectively the so-called "podjunščina", in German "Jauntaler Dialekt").The dialect was initially identified and described by Johann Scheinigg in 1882.
