Dear Lowlanders,

Earlier today I passed on to you some information about a newly published
Mennonite Low Saxon (Plautdietsch) dictionary.  In the meantime I have
received further information which you will find below.  I have now added this
item to our publications list at
http://www.geocities.com/~sassisch/rhahn/lowlands/low_saxon_offline.htm (under
"Modern Low Saxon" - "Modern Low Saxon around the World" & "Dictionaries,"
marked as "New").  There is also an email link.

Best regards,

Reinhard/Ron
