This book presents a comprehensive overview of the Pennsylvania-German dialect as it was spoken by the German immigrants who settled in the United States in the 17th and 18th centuries. The language remained isolated from standard German for nearly 200 years and developed its own unique characteristics. The text provides an in-depth examination of its history and usage, including the influence of English and other languages on its vocabulary and grammar. The author has meticulously compiled and defined over 60,000 entries, making this book a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of language, linguistics, or the Pennsylvania-German culture.
