@Kreloar its and mixture butween ducth, german and french. then you got like 80% of the language :p

i speak dutch and german fluently only my german grammar isnt that great. xD

[Kreloar]

It sounds like a mixture between German and French. Swiss German also uses "merci" and some other French words, but Luxembourgish is much more extreme in this respect.

Es klingt wie eine Mischung aus Deutsch und Französisch. Das Schweizerdeutsche benutzt auch "merci" und nutzt einige andere französische Wörter, aber in dieser Hinsicht ist das Luxembourgische viel extremer.

@mrdeleted

PA dutch is based on the same palantine (Pfalz) dialect like luxemburgic - that's it.

Is the d' (of d'Gard, d'Buss) pronounced? I did not hear any sound for it. Thank you, merci.
