Summary/Abstract: For the German-Polish linguistic situation in the Silesia supraregion, ancestry uncertainties of its inhabi¬tants are not uncommon. Due to the centuries-old immigration processes, the balance between belonging and strangeness is not stable. Mechanisms that contribute to this balance can be seen in the rudimentary phonetic language structure of the language island residents.
