Masovian Borderland dialect

The Masovian Borderland dialect (Polish: gwary pogranicza mazowieckiego) belongs to the Lesser Poland dialect group and is located in the central part of Poland. It borders the Kielce dialect to the south, the Łęczyca dialect to the east, the Western Lublin dialect, Masovian Łowicz dialect to the northeast, and the Near Mazovian dialect to the north. Similar to Łęczyca and Sieradz, influences from many dialect regions can be seen here. It encompasses the southwestern regions of historic Masovia and the central part of northern Lesser Poland, extending to the Pilica River in the north and the Vistula River in the east; the southern border runs along a line from Piotrków Trybunalski, Radom, and Puławy. This dialect is a transitional dialect between Lesser Poland and Masovia.
