More
similar to Middle High German than to modern German, this dialect has
different tints and shades. Upper-class Bernese (Bernburger) originates
from the aristocracy and has more French influence. This translation is
made in the common form of the dialect. With the revival of interest in
ethnic roots, the Bernese dialect has become an instrument for the
expression of art � poetry, songs etc.
