Comments by "Lyn FL" (@lynfl9814) on "German Reacts to Pennsylvania Dutch | Feli from Germany" video.
I am 70 years old, both of my parent spoke Pennsylvania Deutsch. When my father started school; he could not speak English. My Dad was born in 1906. My older brother (17 years older) could speak PA Deutsch. He was stationed in Germany when he was in the Army in 1958. He was able to communicate with the local people and with some of German people that worked at the Army base where he was stationed. I learned a few PA Deutsch phrases; but, I can't speak it. When my parents didn't want my younger brother and I to know what they were talking about; they would speak PA Deutsch.
