Dear all:
Luc wrote about the German presence in Kazakstan, providing us with an
excellent summary document for Kazakstan generally.
As someone fascinated by the Aussiedler phenomenon - especially with regard
to the qualitative experiences of Aussiedler in Germany - do any list
contributors have details on the uptake of Low Saxon or other Lowlandic
variants by Aussiedler in Germany today? Is it simply the case that
Aussiedler whose native language is Russian or Romanian are obliged to learn
Hochdeutsch upon their state-insisted "integration" into north German
society, even if the areas in which they live are still Low Saxon or Frisian
speaking? How many Aussiedler have "re-settled" in traditionally Lowlandic
areas, given that the German Government now channels migrants to certain
districts where they are legally compelled to remain?
(By the way, Ron, I read an interesting journal article on the use of
Turkish as a sociolect among adolescents of va! rious ethnic groups -
including Greeks - in Germany today. I am away from the library at the
moment but I will post a link to it here tomorrow.)
Go raibh maith agaibh,
Criostóir.
