Western Lombard dialect
Pavese is a dialect of
Western Lombard language spoken in
province of Pavia (
Lombardy). In Pavese, differently from most of
Western Lombard dialects, the "z" (ts or dz) is transformed into "s".
In the past, before the influence of
Milanese, Pavese was more similar to
Emiliano-Romagnolo language. In
Lomellina a
Piedmontese-influenced dialect is spoken; in the
Oltrepò Pavese fully
Western Lombard dialects (like that of
Bobbio) or
Emilian–Romagnol-influenced dialects (like that of
Broni) are spoken; the southern part of the
province of Pavia speaks
Ligurian-influenced dialects.
Pavese is the language of I Fiö dla Nebia and Quèi Ad La Barcéla, two popular musical groups.
