<p>This essay investigates the knowledge about the dialect in Jönköping among youths in the same city. My aim is primarily to focus on their knowledge around words and expressions in the dialect of Jönköping. My method is both qualitative and quantitative and the survey was performed through questionnaires that were sent out to 50 students. In the questionnaires the students were asked to translate words from the dialect in Jönköping but also to freely speculate around the features in the dialect.</p><p> </p><p>My findings indicate that the knowledge around the students own dialect is very poor. Knowledge about the words and expressions that were used in my questionnaire were also poor but among those words that the students actually recognized many originated from the Romany language. Among the answers from the questionnaire there were 17 suggestions for other dialect words, different from the ones that were used in the questionnaire. Consequently the contemporaneity in certain literature that were used is questioned.</p> / <p>Den här uppsatsen undersöker jönköpingungdomars kunskap om den egna dialekten. Syftet är att framförallt fokusera på ungdomarnas kunskaper kring ord och uttryck i Jönköping. Metoden är både av kvalitativ och kvantitativ art och enkätundersökning har använts som undersökningsmetod. 50 enkäter delades ut där eleverna tillfrågades att översätta dialektord samt spekulera fritt kring vad som kännetecknar dialekten i Jönköping.</p><p> </p><p>Resultatet visar att kunskapen om dialektala ord och uttryck är mycket låg bland gymnasieungdomar i Jönköping. De ord som kändes igen av ungdomarna var till stor del romaniglosor. I enkätsvaren fanns 17 förslag på andra dialektord än de som föreslagits i enkäten. Därmed ifrågasätts aktualiteten i viss litteratur som behandlar språket i Jönköping</p>
