Maybe:

  Description: The Söl'ring dialect of North Frisian (Syltring)

or:

  Description: The Söl'ring (Syltring) dialect of North Frisian

or even:

  Description: The Söl'ring dialect of North Frisian
  Description: Syltring

Off-topic rant: why does the digest still clobber non-ASCII characters?
