'''Ballmer Ăn Yidiș''' ('' 'n Idiș oy Balmur'' or '' 'm Balmuriș'') originates from the Eastern US city of Ballmer (from בּאלא מוֹר Bală Mur 'Big Village', Ḷbāḷdimōra in Palkhan; same location and same local pronunciation /boəlmər/ as our Baltimore). It's the most common Ăn Yidiș dialect in the Philadelphia area and in wider PA, it's highly innovative compared to other dialects of Ăn Yidiș. | '''Ballmer Ăn Yidiș''' ('' 'n Idiș oy Balmur'' or '' 'm Balmuriș'') originates from the Eastern US city of Ballmer (from בּאלא מוֹר Bală Mur 'Big Village', Ḷbāḷdimōra in Palkhan; same location and same local pronunciation /boəlmər/ as our Baltimore).

Ballmer Ăn Yidiș sounds a bit like a Satmar Yiddish accent in Ăn Yidiș. Unlike Standard Ăn Yidiș it lacks "umlaut" of Proto-ĂnY *a before slender consonants, hence MIr ''baile'' > ''bală'' as opposed to Standard ĂnY ''belă''. It has lost gender and mutations, but h- is added to vowel initial plural nouns and adjectives. | Ballmer Ăn Yidiș sounds a bit like a Satmar Yiddish accent in Ăn Yidiș.
