  • My father grew up speaking a low german dialect in his family . He is 75 now. He always called it a low dutch. I am assuming this is the same language as his family was mennonite and from the Russian Mennonites. He understood some of this language when I played it for him but not all. His mother has been dead for years and she was the last one he spoke it to. They are from Kansas but now living in Idaho. Is this the same language, do you know? I speak none of it which is a shame.

  • I don't like Low Saxon (Plattdüütsch) language.

  • is it actual german? coz for me it sound like a mix between dutch and polish.

  • It is called Plautdietsch. A variety of Low Saxon (although linguists earlier mostly referred to it as Low German). there is no standard variety of Low Saxon. Every region has its distinct accent. It is a dialect contiuüm, from the west of Poland, all over northern Germany (with a tip in Denmark) and in the north and east of the Netherlands.

  • plautdietsch is ganz gaud to verstahn
