Dat de Lüüd', dé in in öllere Tieden in Katen wanen deen, Daglöners
[daylaborers, in Ooostfreesland seggt 'n "Daghürers"] weren, besünners bie
rieke Buren (Landweerten), dat kann 'n ook noch bie't Woord "Katendeern" in de
noordsassische Dialekten seen.  'n "Katendeern" is 'n Deern [girl] uut 'n
pover [poor] Huus, de Dochter vun 'n Daglöner or/un sülvst 'n Daglönersch.  In
de meersten Fällen was 'n Kaat schients nich de Egendoom vun'n Daglöner.

Gröten,
Reinhard/Ron
