Pennsylvania German: Vitt Du Deitsh Shvetza?

So you want to learn to speak Pennsylvania German, also known as Pennsylvania Dutch, Pennsylvania Deitsh, PA-German. This workbook is designed to help you achieve that goal.

There are two spelling systems for the written form of Pennsylvania German. The spelling system used in "Vitt Du Deitsh Shvetza?" is the same as is used in "Di Heilich Shrift" the Pennsylvania German Bible and "Ich Kann PA Deitsh Shreiva" a Pennsylvania German writing workbook. This style was chosen because it is easier to learn if you know English.

This book has been a group effort and it is our hope that you enjoy using it to learn Pennsylvania German.
