Of the approximately 500 key words elaborated in volume 5 of the Dictionary of Bavarian dialects in Austria, covering entries for e to eig, the key words Eck, Ege, Eher, Ei and Eidechse and the associated compound words and derivatives have the longest entries. The range of pronunciations and meanings, or the detailed information relevant for a very small area included under Eck, Ege, Eher and Ei support the relevant description of its meaning or clarify, as, for example in the case of Eidechse, the numerous folk etymological reinterpretations of the pronunciation, which have in some instances produced taboos. The variants of pronunciation and meaning of the adverb or the conjunction ê ehe, ehedem including the comparative forms êer, êent, êenter and the superlative êest, êentest, êrst are mapped by region and over time.
