History club at Amager: Bondsk in Copenhagen

Over the centuries, foresters and amager farmers had been in close contact with Copenhageners when selling fish and vegetables in the capital's markets. Normally the dialects would have been thinned out or lost, but here the opposite was the case. Was this some kind of marketing ploy along the lines of their traditional dress codes? Or were there other reasons for the vicissitudes of the surrounding dialects?
Pia Quist and Bjarne S. Hansen will try to give us the answer to the riddle.
Pia Quist and Bjarne S. Hansen are respectively professor and pedagogical consultant at the Department of Nordic Studies and Linguistics at the University of Copenhagen. In 2025, together they published the book “Bondsk i København”.

Praktiskhistorieklubben På Amager is jointly operated by Kvarterhuset, Islands Brygge Bibliotek and Sundby Library.
We call ourselves a club, but everyone is welcome and the arrangements are publicly available.
