The following variant subtags should be changed from de- to the following
forms:

saxuppno (North Upper Saxon)  = sxu-saxuppno
gerlowe (West Low German) = nds-gerlowe
gerlono (North Low German) = nds-gerlono
franlo (Low Franconian) = nds-franlo
pommer (Pomeranian) = nds-pommer
pommermi (West Pomeranian) = nds-pommermi
pommerea (East Pomeranian) = nds-pommerea
prusslo (Low Prussian) = nds-prusslo
branden (Brandenburgian) = nds-branden
phalea (Eastphalian) = nds-phalea
ripuaria (Ripuarian) = ksh
alemlo (Low Alemannic) = gsw-alemlo
alemmi (Middle Alemannic) = gsw-alemmi
alemhi (High Alemannic) = gsw-alemhi
alemhist (Highest Alemanic) gsw-alemhist

Existing language tags:

frs (East Frisian Low Saxon)
vmf (Eastern Franconian)
pfl (Palatinate Franconian)
swg (Swabian)
wep (Westphalian)
Western Yiddish (yih)
yec (Yeniche)

All "Low German" descriptions should be duplicated as "Low Saxon".

Correct spellings in English:  "northern", "southern", "eastern",
"western", "northeastern", "southeastern", "northwestern", "southwestern",
(no hyphens, no capitals, no use of "north", "south", "east", or "west" as
adjectives), "Pomeranian (with one "m").
