Summary

[edit]
Description
English: This image shows the dialect clock in Hormersdorf in the Ore Mountains. The clock shows "
zwee Ziffern zwee'e
" in the Hormersdorf Erzgebirgisch dialect meaning 01:10 (literally "two Ziffers of the second hour", a Ziffer being five minutes, the second hour being 01:00 to 02:00 or 13:00 to 14:00 in daytime).
The left-hand wheel has twelve cogs, each showing a five minute interval (a Ziffer), from bottom to top:
üm = at or exactly;
ä Ziffer = one Ziffer or five minutes;
zwee Ziffern = two Ziffer or ten minutes;
värtel = quarter of an hour or fifteen minutes;
vier Ziffern = four Ziffer or twenty minutes;
fünf Ziffern = five Ziffer or twenty-five minutes;
(remaining cogs are out of view)
The right-hand wheel also has twelve cogs, each showing a single hour, from bottom to top:
zwilfe = twelve (or "of the twelfth hour");
äns = one (or "of the first hour");
zwee'e = two (or "of the second hour");
dreie = three;
viere = four;
fünfe = five;
(remaining cogs are out of view)
Deutsch: Dieses Bild zeigt die Mundartuhr in Hormersdorf im Erzgebirge.
