Well, since the first German Americans moved to the US in the 1600s, the German language has been spoken here. Most speakers are over 60 years old but here and there, the language is passed on to the younger generations. Actually, there are also many dialects in the USA for example, here, some speak Deitsch, Dätsch, Dietsch, and Dütsch and I’m not talking about Pennsylvania German or Texas German dialects.

In some parts of Nebraska, there are some descendants of the first cowboys who can still speak Plattdeutsch while fewer can still [speak] in states like Missouri. There are also Saxon speakers in the region of St. Louis who I’m related to. Even words like “Stinkkatze” and “Luftschiff” are used in other states like Kansas and Indiana. In Jasper county in southern Indiana near to where my dad is from, people say “Gschvel” for a squirrel. Or when my dad was an over-imaginative boy and wanted to have himself a little fun, my grandpa would yell, “out!” and would ban him from the house for a while.

If you are interested to see your native language/dialect to be featured here. Submit your recordings to [email protected]. Looking forward to hearing from you!
