Hi Mark,
It's quite ununderstandable, it's not just the orthography, but in Germany they use different words so you have to know that dialect to understand it. I can understand the first sentence, but the second sentence is very hard to understand, the first part of this sentence is understandable as well, at "veet nu Bescheed" it's completely ununderstandable for any Low Saxon speaker in the Netherlands: "Man de Bezeukers vun de Lezung miet Hartmut Cyriacks un Peter Niszen veet nu Bescheed euver den plattduutschen Harry Potter. De Kulturvereen "PEP" un de Stadtbeukerie Kelinghuzen harrn de baaiden Plattmakers inlaodt, un dat veer en heel gode Idee..."
The first sentence of that text is even different in Dutch-Low Saxon: "Wie weet nog wat en teuvernaor is? Dat et Platduutse woord deurveur "Sauwberer" is, bin de meeste minsen waorschynlik al vergeten. (Plattdeutsch: "Wokeen veet noch, vat en Teuverer is? Dut ole plattduutsche Wort veur "Zaauberer" hebbt de mehrsten Luud maaist vergeten.")
Hope you get my point now...

Hi Servien,
Please check out
http://s87257573.onlinehome.us/ks/index.php?title=HP_op_Platt&variant=ks...
and tell me what you think of the conversion.
It's obviously not perfect but I'm still working on it.
Any tips for improvements (ie, specific spelling errors) are
welcome.
Mark

Hi,
I requested Dutch-Low Saxon a few weeks ago and I kind of made
my
own
mainpage for Wikipedia (if it ever gets created that is...) but
anyway...
for people who like to check it out here is the link: http://nds.wikipedia.org/Bruker:Servien/Heufdbladsyde
Please post any suggestions and stuff, like to read some
comments.
Question: On Wikipedia-L posts are mostly grouped together, but
how
do
you do that? (messages below each other like on wikipedia ":
and ::
and
:::" to show those are the replies. I hope you kind of
understand
it
because I don't really know how to explain it myself haha.)
