Here’s a suggestion for your Apple app, the rings should be ring bologna and you get a piece of bologna for every time you use a word. The goal is to finish your whole ring! PD don’t like to waste anything, especially good food! 😂
Now I wish for a tutorial on how to integrate PA Dutch words into my everyday German language ;)
LMAO " It's like glacial speed though" I almost fell off my chair, when you said this
I will just do it.
your tactic is working international, some day i wrote "zwewle" insted of "Zwiebeln" on my shopping list xD
PA Dutch Fortune Cookies!
I like to throw some Pennsylvania Dutch in, like "He was gretzin'", or "You got me all vahuddelt", or "Mach's gut!", or "Wie bischt?"
"Gell" isn't just PA Dutch, though, that's in other German dialects, too.
I'm so glad I got on here and found yous, I was born in Lancaster, PA. Raised Lebanon....graduated from Cedar Crest. I knew my Grandmom Gettle was PA Dutch, (I'm commenting as yous two are bickering and I'm really reminded how my family got hahaha) Anyways, I did lots of research. My original names were Schauer to Showers and Kreiver to Kreiner (cursive mistake suddenly changed the last name??? *shrug*) Oh well see I'm rambling even typing... nice meeting ya!!
Glad you found the channel! Enjoy!
Awesome idea the calendar
Hey, nahw! Let's get dahwn! Let's all go to Allentahwn!
Nah ya got me hungry for Vilbur Buds! My Mom is 101 and we still get her five pound bags of Wilbur Buds direct from the factory. My grandfather in Wernersville always had a box of them on the kitchen bureau and we'd grab a few as we'd run by when we were little kids....SO delicious.
Yuscht do it, gell?
Sel aw noche
That also
I love Chris' Beard 😍😍😍
Thanks for answering my question! You can’t have too many PA Dutch words to throw around, gell?
Ha jo, gell😀👍🏻
You guys need an app!!! Priceless!
Please create an PA Dutch App!! That would be awesome! I’d use it !!!
That would be awesome, sadly, I am not that tech savvy! There is an online PD dictionary that you can access on your phone: padutchdictionary.com/
Wobelerstettle for the Long bearded ''Gentleman'' ...haha !
They need to add PA Dutch to Duo Lingo!
We have been asking them for years, they continually say no.
Well, World War One really started with the suppression of German, generally. Remember "Liberty Cabbage" for sauerkraut?
Or "Pennsburg, formerly Heiligsville"?
Yeah,
My Dad was punished in school if he spoke it and told it was " Un- American "
Ihr zwei seid die Snicklefritz-Brüder. Genau!
So hen aa unsre Eldere gsaat!
Thoroughly enjoying the PA Dutch insights! My grandfather always said something that I think may have been PA Dutch (he was born and raised around Philadelphia). Does this sound like anything you know? It was "ha shma sock nichts." I think that whatever he was saying roughly meant "quit your yammering."
Hush mer, saag nix! - Quiet up and say nothing.
@@PADutch101 Oh my gosh, that's it! Thank you!!!!
No, not chocolate! Use scrapple in the Advent calendar!
And a Distelfink for the PA Dutch swoosh.
Yep, grew up in Kutztown saying "yamma yay" all the time. Gley bissel -- haven't heard that one in decades.....it's why I watch your videos, a taste of home! Is Oy vey PA German or Yiddish or both? Yeah, sooner or later all of Kutzishtetl will be PA German! Teach all them colletch kits at KU -- make PA German the language requirement. Yeah, "Go** fer dumsei!" Ei, yi, yi!
I used "mach's gute" the last time I visited my local Amish community here in Michigan. The young teenage girl just repeated it back to me and said take care as well. She wasn't overly enthusiastic about the term.
Mach's gut
👀 Gut G'duh DouG! 🤔Kaanst du schreiwe die waad @ 6:19 ? (did I hear "fer damm zeit" ?) UN was does it mean exactly ? Maybe Chris's advent calendar idea could be 365 day tear-away calendar 🤘🏽Viel Danke Buwe 🗣️Schwetze Deitsch 🌷
How would I say " release the hounds !'' in PA Dutch ? I want to say it when I release my 2 Jack Russell Terriers on my Mom whose father ( my grandfather ) was PA Dutch ! I remember him speaking it as a child and laughing hysterically because it sounded so strange, I wish he was still here to teach me. He had a great sense of humor. I will be watching your channel alot to learn what I can , thanks for taking the time to do this
Loss die Hunde frei!
Gucke ma, oh ma ju
How about fer-shtay? For, do you understand (I think)?
Yep, verschteh is a good one!
Who are you taking PA Dutch back from though?
More bringing it back, not taking it back.
Totally gonna add Pa Deitch to our homeschool weeks next season .
