	Scanian (linguistics) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Scanian is classified as a separate language by SIL International and is considered to include not only the dialects spoken in Sweden—Skånska in Skåne (Scania), Halländska in Halland, and Blekingska in Blekinge—but also that of the Danish island of Bornholm (Bornholmsk).
		The reason Scanian is considered a separate language is mainly historical: it does not fulfill most generally accepted criteria for being a language separate from Swedish, as it is mutually intelligible with almost all variants of Swedish and is not regarded as a separate language by Swedes and a majority of Scanians.
		Scanian regionalist debaters however express the view that Scanian is a suppressed minority language in Sweden and as such ought to be granted official status.

	Science Fair Projects - Scanian language
		The Scanian language (Swedish: Skånska, Danish: Skånsk) is the language indigenous to the region of southern Sweden once known as Terra Scania, of which the Swedish province of Scania constitutes the main part.
		The notion of Scanian as a separate language is controversial: Scanian is regarded as a dialect of Swedish by most speakers; and also by most Swedish speakers.
		Additionally, the prosody of Scanian differs from (other) Swedish dialects, and overall Scanian is most closely related to the east Danish dialects spoken on the island of Bornholm, which is why some linguists prefer to classify Scanian as a variety of Danish.
