"The long persistence of Pennsylvania German English for nearly two centuries in an English-speaking territory which was settled by English, Scotch-Irish and Welsh as early as by Germans, naturally brought about a certain contact between English and German language that influenced both, the generally spoken English and the specific dialect formation that languages borrowed from each other"--Back cover

Seminar paper from the year 1993 in the subject American Studies - Linguistics, grade: 1,7, Johannes Gutenberg University Mainz (Englische Philologie), course: Varieties of American English, language: English, abstract: The long persistence of Pennsylvania German English for nearly two centuries in an English-speaking territory which was settled by English, Scotch-Irish and Welsh as early as by Germans , naturally brought about a certain contact between English and German language that influenced both, the generally spoken English and the specific dialect formation that languages borrowed from each other. This paper is an attempt to show in how far this language contact has caused mutual language borrowings, which were by no means restricted to vocabulary items but also extended to phonological and syntactic features, having as well influential effects on intonational patterns.

Excerpt from The Pennsylvania German Dialect This study of the Pennsylvania German dialect dates from the year 1884, and is, so far as the author is aware, the first attempt to offer an exhaustive scientific treament of any American-German dialect. Its only predecessor, Haldeman's Pennsylvania Dutch (Phila. 1872), was of a more general and descriptive character. After having collected the most valuable printed matter in the dialect, the author made repeated tours into various portions of eastern Pennsylvania, in order to study the peculiarities of the spoken dialect. In the year 1885 he went to the Rhenish Palatinate (Rheinpfalz) and acquainted himself with the speech of the old home of the Palatines (Pfalzer). Thus a point of view was gained from which comparisons could be made. As a pioneer attempt the work had to contend with many difficulties, the most serious of which was the fixing of a consistent phonetic orthography. When such was finally adopted, it could not be consistently carried out for lack of suitable type. Hence it was necessary to substitute v for the voiced spirant b with a stroke; y for the intervocalic palatal g. The general plan of the work includes two parts. Part I (consisting of articles reprinted from the Am. Jour. Phil., Vol. IX, 1-4 and X, 3) contains chapters on Ethnography, Phonology, Inflection, Syntax, English Mixture. Part II will treat of German Mixture and Etymology. The material here presented has been carefully sifted. The examples are quoted from original sources. The critical portions of the work have passed under the eye of one "to the manor born." About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
