Dank' Jau aal, dee antert hefft, un' weest ne düll, watt ick nu' eirst
Tiid
heff, Trüch tau schriieven.

Mittünner denk ick, jeeidereen schall mol' n Döntje, Pratje schriiven,
wenn
em door no is- ne blauts jümmer "hoogweetenschapplich" blieven!
Jüst opp Platt (ne blaut ..."Düütsch") kann 'st 'n Baarr Undüüg
vertellen,
oon de "gauden Benimm" tau büsskeern- dücht mi.
Kannst tau jeeideen Keirl "Du" seggen (bii Frouwenslüüd 'n lütt beeten
verscheeden), kannst "Schiet" or "Swineegel" seggen, oohn datt eein
Minschen
sick beleidicht fööl 'n deiht.

Mann- ick bünn amend ne de "typus", de oon Innen "stories" schriiven
kann.
Mi dücht overs, mang Jau sünn 't 'n Bült Lüü, de dat woll kunnen.

Mann- wenn 't meuglich is- mit 'n Ingelte Översetten (denn doch weller);
mit
de Üümluuden klappt dat joo woll ne jümmers!

Ron un de Böbersten bi LL-L schöllt door woll nix teegen hebben!

Allerbest Kumpelmenten:

Fiete.

Hallo to all Lowlanders,

Thanks to all of You answering to my posting. Please don't be angry for
my
late reaction.

Sometimes I think, everyone should post a little story, if he feels
common
to do it- not only those serious "highly scientific" remarks.
Specially in our Low Saxon dialects (not only "...German") as I think we
have good opportunity to talk about much nonsens and "near-silked" stuff
without violating our own or the common rules.

One is able to offer the (UG) "DU" to everyman (a little bit different
to
women), You may use words like "sh..." and "swine-hedgehod" for
characterizing anyone without injuring him.

I am, by no means,  the type of man to write endless stories. But I
think,
there are a lot of people among You who are able and skillfull enough
for
it.

Please- if possible- with an English translation (at this point at least
it
is very useful); at the moment it doesn't work with the vowels at LL-L.

Ron and the "upper staff"  shall agree, as I guess.

Best regards:

Fiete.

Fiete, my schal 't recht syn, so lang as uut dey list keyn "chat room"
wardt.  Vun 'n "wetenschuplichen" standpunkt uut wardt je altyd
"language corpora" bruukt.

"Böverste" givt 't by us nich.

Fiete, it's all right with me, as long as we don't laps into "chat room"
mode.  The "scientific" side of things can always use some language
corpora.

There's no one "upper" around here.

Gröytens/Regards,
Reinhard/Ron
