I've read history of germanic languages by Watermann, Walshal's MHG grammer and reader, i studied Latin in HS, and ive got a reading fluency of German. Ive also studied Hogg's Grammer on Pennsylvania Deitsch. ( my grandparents spoke this. It's like Pfälzisch ( rhein Franconian ?). I've messed around with a couple OE grammers too. I've always been intimidated by OHG. I've tried to read the Mercerburg Zaubersprüche, and Hildebrand Lied. It's so inflected it looks like Latin. Am I ready for OHG?
Basically look at different dialects of german and be ready to learn more inflections, but in essence it (mostly) can resemble grrman if studied carefully and critically
In South West (Saarland) there's no G in Wagen or Regen. Wagen is "Waan" (van?) or "Waare" and Regen is "Rähn" (rain, but more like "ran" with a long A sound like in "hair" or "rare").
Not in the sense listed here (intervocalically) where it is a voived stop in Berlin and Eastfalia, but final g's are mostly fricatives /x/ voiceless and due Low German influence in pronunciation of High German in these areas
I love old high german, I want to learn it ❤

Could you make a video abt OHG runic inscriptions?

The pronunciation of g as a fricative is certainly not southern, it is typical for Berlin and Eastfalia (roughly between Hannover and Göttingen).

Friendly feedback: You don't have to say "Let's move on / Moving on" all the time ;)
Keep making videos man. I love it. As a follower of the Germanic old way i feel its my duty to talk to my gods and ancestors in there languages
