Bavarian
Bavarian can either
* when used as an
adjective, refer to the
German state of
Bavaria; or
* refer to the
Bavarian or Austro-Bavarian language, a group of closely related
dialects spoken in parts of Bavaria, most of
Austria and the
South Tyrol.
*
Bavarian cream - a custard sauce.
In
German, the two usages are distinguished orthographically, with
bay(e)risch referring to the state and
Bairisch referring to the language.
Note to Wikipedia editors: It is recommended that links are set directly either to Bavaria or Austro-Bavarian in order to avoid confusion.
