It was spoken around Insterburg (now Chernyakhovsk, Russia), Memelland (Klaipėda Region, Lithuania), and Tilsit (Sovyetsk, Russia) eastern territories of East Prussia in the former eastern territories of Germany. Many speakers of this subdialect were Prussian Lithuanians. In difference to varieties to the West, it had no vocalization of r. Its alveolar r probably counts among its influences of Lithuanians. Mundart der Weichselwerder has an alveolar as well. Mundart des Ostgebietes has a greater phonetic affinity to Standard German than Samlandic. Ai of Samlandic is given as ei with long e.
