The Lach dialects (Czech: lašská nářečí, Polish: gwary laskie, not to be confused with the Lechitic language group), are a group of dialects of Silesian language. They represent a hybrid or mix of the West Slavic languages.
The Lach dialects are spoken in parts of Czech Silesia, the Hlučín region, and northeastern Moravia,[1] as well as in some adjacent villages in Poland.[2] Most Czech researchers consider Lach a dialect of Czech, whereas Polish dialectologists tend to ascribe Polish origins to Lach.[3]
The poet Óndra Łysohorsky is probably the best-known writer in a Lach dialect.
