<span style="font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;">Dear Lowlanders,</span><br style="font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;"><br style="font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;">
Thanks to those of you that have responded to my revamped version of the English Wikipedia entry "Missingsch" (<a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Missingsch">http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Missingsch</a>).</span>
<br style="font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;"><br style="font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;">In the meantime I have cleaned it up some more and have also added some information, including some more vocabulary (some of it "pinched" from our WikiPlatt friends' version) and some more references to (oral) literature.
</span><br style="font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;"><br style="font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;">A fringe benefit: our Utz sent me a sound file to go with his Bremen Missingsch translation of the Wren story. Thanks, Utz!
</span><br style="font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;"><br style="font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;">So now we have sound files to go with both:</span><br style="font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;">
<ul style="font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;"><li>Bremen: <a href="http://lowlands-l.net/anniversary/missingsch-bremen1.php">http://lowlands-l.net/anniversary/missingsch-bremen1.php</a></li><li>Hamburg: <a href="http://lowlands-l.net/anniversary/missingsch-hamburg1.php">
http://lowlands-l.net/anniversary/missingsch-hamburg1.php</a></li></ul><span style="font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;">Utz found a novel way of making his recording. I'm sure he won't mind me sharing it with you in hopes of removing further excuses ;-) :
</span><br style="font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;"><br style="font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;"><div style="margin-left: 40px; font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 153);">
I have recorded it with my cell phone, transmitted the file with Bluetooth to my PC and started it by doubleclicking. It was opened by Real Player and I could listen to it. It is in amr
format. I am not sure wether it is useful or not, but I have no idea how to produce it as mp3-file.</span><br style="color: rgb(0, 0, 153);"><br style="color: rgb(0, 0, 153);"></div><span style="font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;">
Well, I was able to convert it to MP3 format.</span><br style="font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;"><br style="font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;">So how about the rest of you lot doing this with your versions?
</span><br style="font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;"><br style="font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;">Thanks and regards,</span><br style="font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;">
<span style="font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;">Reinhard/Ron</span><br style="font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;"><br style="font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;"><br style="font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;">
