was just watching a documentary and the person was speaking Berlin / Brandenburg dialect and I’m pretty sure he said “et” in place of the Standarddeutsch “es”, which to me makes sense at least based on what i know of “s” getting replaced by “t” a being very common feature of the dialect.
Did i hear right?
Yeah, 100%.
It’s not just Berlin though that does that. You can find it all the way to the Ruhrpott too. I think it’s something about “Auslautverhärtung” and a dividing line through Germany.
