Eifeler Regel

The Eifeler Regel (German pronunciation: [ˈaɪfəlɐ ˈʁeːɡl̩], Luxembourgish: [ˈɑɪfəlɐ ˈʀeːʑəl]; meaning "Eifel Rule"; in Luxembourgish also spelled Äifler Regel [ˈæːɪflɐ-]) is a linguistic phenomenon originally documented in the dialects of the Eifel region in the far west of Germany during the late 19th century. The rule describes a phonological process in the languages which causes the deletion of final [n] in certain contexts, and may be reflected in spelling.
