East Pomeranian dialect
East Pomeranian is an East Low German dialect that is either moribund or used to be spoken in what was roughly Pomerania and today is also spoken in some communities in Brazil. It is part of the Low German language.
East Pomeranian was mostly spoken in the Farther Pomerania region of the Prussian Province of Pomerania and in Pomerelia. After World War II, the region was ethnically cleansed and East Pomeranian-speaking German inhabitants of the region were largely expelled to western Germany.
East Pomeranian is also spoken in the United States and in some areas of Brazil
The varieties of East Pomeranian are:
- Westhinterpommersch
- Osthinterpommersch
- Bublitzisch around Bobolice

Further the east, German dialects transitioned to Low Prussian-East Pomeranian and Vistula Delta German spoken in and around Danzig/Gdansk.Espírito Santo
