Vogtlandian^{[citation needed]} (German: Vogtländisch [ˈfoːktlɛndɪʃ]; Vogtländisch: Vuuchtländisch, Klingenthal pronunciation: [ˈfuːxtlændɪʃ]) is an East Franconian dialect, spoken in Vogtland.

Vogtlandian is mainly spoken in rural areas. Speakers are mainly elderly, as school and preschool education tends to be negligent about fostering this linguistic tradition. Furthermore, dialect use is often discouraged from an early age. Just like Lusatia and the Ore Mountains, the Vogtland is one of few areas in Saxony still having regions of comparatively self-contained dialect. Vogtlandian and Erzgebirgisch share some linguistic features, due to similarities and interdependencies in their respective settlement histories.

There are multiple dialects of Vogtland, some of which differ drastically. In Plauen, for instance, a Vogtlandian is spoken completely differently from how it is spoken in Klingenthal. (vogtl. Klengedohl /klenɡədoːl/). A common remark between speakers from neighbouring regions is die singe doch ihre Wördder (engl.: they are singing their words).

The varieties mostly as following:

Do, wu de Hasn Hoosn haaßen un de Hosen Huusn haaßen, do bi iech dr ham.

Translated literally: "There, where hares are called a pair of pants and a pair of pants are called Husen, that's the place I call home." This proverb is also quite common in neighboring Ore Mountains due to the shift of vowels illustrated through it, which is also a feature of Erzgebirgisch.

Vogtlandian appears as a more than less fluent transition between Meißenisch in the area Chemnitz – Zwickau, Upper East Franconian in the area south to Hof, and South Eastern Thuringian in the area around Gera.

Pre-Vogtländisch is the name for the transitional area to Upper Saxon, which surrounds Reichenbach. Here the originary singing of words is only audible rudimentally, which also holds true for the over-emphasis of intonation within a sentence. Following the Göltzsch upstream, these phenomena will increase strongly.
