(Some English following below)

"Oorig, woorig, chottsverdoorig"!

Miin Feller: (LS) "oorig" meeint woll (UG) "urig", (E) "originally", koomt
Diin (F-LS) "oerig" tauneichst.

Mann- ick haa' r dennen Maut gonne: (LS) "woorig", dat "w" snackt ass 'n
Ingeltet "w" in (E) "weather" or "what" (kenn ick man jyst eben noch uut
miin Kinnerdoog'), meeint (UG) "[über]mächtig, beeindruckend, gewaltig", (E)
"[al]mighty, impressious, powerful". Ick heff dreei Lüü' froogt, bitt ick
dee Kuroosch haar, datt hier aff tausetten!
Mi dücht, datt is 'n interessant' Sook!

Unn'- (LS) "chotsverdoorig" (UG) "gottverdammt[?]", (E) "~goddamm' nd~"?

************************

(Some English, as promised)


My mistake (in relation to the original mail): (LS) "oorig" seems to mean
(UG) "urig", (E) "originally", is near to Your  (F-LS) "oerig".

Well- I didn't have the courage to write: (LS) "woorig", the "w" spoken like
the English "w" in "weather" or "what" (I just  have a slight remember to my
childen days) is meaning (UG) "[über]mächtig, beeindruckend, gewaltig", (E)
"[al]mighty, impressious, powerful". I had to interview three people to find
the courage to set this here!
I find it to be [linguistcally] interesting!

And- what about (LS) "chotsverdoorig" (UG) "gottverdammt[?]", (E)
"~goddammn' ed~"?

Kumpelmenten, Greutens, regards:

Fiete.


Not Lucifer I fear,
but those almighty Gods.
