9This dictionary includes many of the most common words used by the Amish and native speakers of Pennsylvania German (also known as PA-Deitsh or Pennsylvania Dutch). The spelling is the same style used in "Di Heilich Shrift" the Pennsylvania German Bible and "Es Nei Teshtament" the Pennsylvania German New Testament, as well as the Pennsylvania German workbook "Ich Kann PA Deitsh Shreiva". For anyone wanting to learn the Pennsylvania German language as it is spoken by the Amish today, this dictionary will be of great benefit.
