I'm curious, the Amish describe themselves as spraking a dirivitive of Swiss, They say Deutche. How different is this from German or Deutche? My family is Mennonite (Amish that drive cars), but it's just German.
It's about a person that remembers the time when he was on the Swiss mountains. There were birds that sang and built nests and the lambs jumped across the meadows. Someone taught him how to milk. That's all I understand as I'm not from Switzerland.

I'm really hoping that some day, somebody, will finally explain to the world, that it is Pennsyvania DEUTCH not DUTCH. German not Nederlander.

Both of the yodelling videos of Paul and Martha Miller contain folk songs. The language is a dialect of German called Swiss-German.
