<div>
<div><span>Ladies and
Gentlemen,</span></div>
<div><span>thanks for your
answers according "strandjutter".</span></div>
<div><span></span>Â </div>
<div><span>Heather and Kevin:
yes, I agree; "beachcomber" should be the better translation, and if you go from
this word into an English-German dictionary you'll find "Strandgut-Sammler"
in German.</span></div>
<div><span>BTW, Heather - it's
interesting that the word "jitter" probably came from (German?) Low Saxon
immigrants into American English. Additionally I should mention that
-Â according to Google-results -Â in LS "jiddelig" perhaps is more used
and better known than "jitterig". </span></div>
<div><span></span>Â </div>
<div><span>Marcus, if you'd
done just one more click you'd probably have found the whole text
here:</span></div>
<div><a href="http://books.google.de/books?id=9_X44k9-3j8C&pg=PA290&dq=jutten+nederlands&lr=&client=firefox-a#v=onepage&q=&f=false" target="_blank">http://books.google.de/books?id=9_X44k9-3j8C&pg=PA290&dq=jutten+nederlands&lr=&client=firefox-a#v=onepage&q=&f=false</a></div>
<div>Â </div>
<div align="left"><span>And then
you'd perhaps have come to the same result as Arend, who favours a variant
of "jatten". </span></div>
<div align="left"><span></span>Â </div>
<div align="left"><span>Jacqueline, your version is very interesting, too! Regards
and thanks to your schoonzuster! (BTW: are you still able to pronounce that
marvellous rolling "r" which my friend Piet Bult from
Stellingwarfs/NLÂ demonstrated me last night at the phone?
"Strandjutterrrrrrrrr..."! Completely impossible for an average German
tongue to create a trill like this. I'll call him "Pietrrrrr...." in future
;-)!)</span></div>

<div align="left">Allerbest!</div>
