Central and Northern Ostrobothnian dialects

Central and Northern Ostrobothnian dialects (Finnish: Keski- ja Pohjois-Pohjanmaan murteet) are Western Finnish dialects spoken in Northern and Central Ostrobothnia, as well as in the Ranua municipality in Lapland. The dialects have been influenced by the Savonian dialects; the influence is weaker at the coasts and stronger in the inland areas.
