Can you give some examples of Penn Dutch, and how it's unique/different from Hochdeutsch?
Thanks,
James

I wrote last year sometime about the possibility of adding a wikipedia in Pennsylvania German/Pennsylvania Dutch. You said discuss it on the Village Pump. I just put a message out on there asking what do other people think. Pending what they say, what do you think about doing this? It's a rapidly dying language, and besides perhaps helping to revive it, the Wikipedia would have the distinction of being the first encyclopedia ever published in Pennsylvania German. The ISO 3-letter code is pdc.
Thanks!

It's an interesting idea but I don't think you'd be able to find enough people willing to add to it, edit it, and maintain it.
