In search of the German language's cousin in the New World.

PLEASE enable subtitles before watching. Although this lady's father is from Düsseldorf, she is actually speaking the local dialect of Plattdeutsch called Texas German. This is a language that began diverging from European German since it arrived in Texas in the 1840's.

Thanks to both Igelchen (on Duolingo) and Cirsten for the above information and translation. If anyone can give us any further refinements to the subtitles, please comment. Here's the blog post: [ Ссылка ]
