Etymology
From and, northern variant of. The regular form in Moselle Franconian and some southern dialects of Ripuarian is Hand with a plural (< *hende) through the development: intervocalic -nd- → -nn-. The regular form in most of Ripuarian is Hank with a plural (< *henge) through velarization and subsequently a corresponding development: intervocalic -ŋg- → -ŋŋ-.

These regular systems are preserved in Moselle Franconian and western Ripuarian. In many eastern and central Ripuarian dialects, the native velarization has to a large degree been reverted under the influence of standard German and surrounding varieties. This reversion, which has emanated from Cologne, is irregular, affecting -nk more than it does -ng-, and hence it has led to occasional variation between velarized and de-velarized forms within the inflectional paradigm of one word (compare, , ).
