 Älvdalsmål - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
It is by Scandinavian linguists considered to be a dialect, but has been classified as a separate language by the Summer Institute of Linguistics under the name Dalecarlian.
As of recently there have been attempts to create a written standard language through the establishment of the association Ulum Dalska with the help of Swedish linguists such as Östen Dahl, though there is presently very little written material and no officially sanctioned orthography.
The dialect is not immidiately endangered, and there are chances that it will be officially sanctioned as a minority language, but the future of Älvdalmål is still far from certain.
