Requested move 18 June 2024[edit]

JutishJutlandic – I'm requesting a move to the new article, along with its associated talk page, because while the terms "Jutish" and "Jutlandic" can be synonyms and refer to either anything related to the ancient Germanic tribe called the 'Jutes', anything related to the Jutland peninsula in Denmark, or the 'Jutlandic dialect' spoken in Denmark, the terms "Jute", "Jutish" and "Jutic" normally refer to anything related to the ancient Germanic tribe called the 'Jutes' (according to the entries on Wiktionary, Jute, Jutish and Jutic), while the terms "Jutlandic" and "Jutlandish" normally refer to anything related to the Jutland peninsula in Denmark, or the 'Jutlandic dialect' spoken in Denmark (according to the entries on Wiktionary, Jutlandic and Jutlandish), while the term "Jutlander" normally refers to anyone from the Jutland peninsula in Denmark (according to the entry on Wiktionary).

But this definitely warrants further discussion. It seems we have five options here:

  1. Retain the status quo, with the disambiguation page as the primary topic,
  2. Move Jutlandic dialect to Jutlandic and retarget Jutish to Jutes,
  3. Retarget Jutlandic to Jutish,
  4. Move Jutish to Jutlandic and then do either of the following:
a. retarget Jutish to Jutlandic,
b. retarget Jutish to Jutes

My personal preference is (4b), to move Jutish to Jutlandic and then retarget Jutish to Jutes, so I've styled the RM that way. But editors are also free to suggest whichever option they want in this RM. PK2 (talk) 03:58, 18 June 2024 (UTC) — Relisting. Safari ScribeEdits! Talk! 12:51, 25 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Just a few points. According to Bede the Jutes came from Jutland. Modern genealogists and archaeologists doubt this and suspect that the so called Jutes who settled in England probably came from Frisia/ Francia. Whether they originally came from the Jutland peninsular and settled initially in Francia/ Frisia then, after a few generations, went to England is something that hasn't been resolved. The dialect they spoke is called Kentish, rather than Jutish. I think that "Option 2" works best for me as it keeps the ancient world seperate to that of the modern.
