==Name== In the Ripuarian dialects, "{{lang|ksh|kölsch}}" is an adjective meaning {{gloss|from Cologne}} or {{gloss|pertaining to Cologne}}, thus equivalent to ''"Colognian"''. Its nominalized forms ({{lang|ksh|ene Kölsche}}, {{lang|ksh|de Kölsche}} etc.) denote the inhabitants of Cologne. The word "{{lang|ksh|Kölsch}}", without an article, refers to either the dialect or the local [[Kölsch (beer)|Kölsch beer]]. Hence the humorous Colognian saying: "Ours is the only language you can drink!"<ref>{{cite web |last1=von Malsen |first1=Franziska |title=Hey Kölle – Du bes e Jeföhl |url=https://www.goethe.de/de/kul/mol/20420374.html |publisher=Goethe-Institut e.
