Ne gliek inne Tünn smieten, beste Reinhard! Anner Lüüd- anner Meent. In
dennen Linguismus is 'noug Bott ouk för sou welk Minschen, de woll wat
'frankophil' sünd un mennigmool över de sassischen Oorspröng överhen jumpen
wöllt ;-).
Kannst mi touglöven: wi, Peiter Kaempfert un ick, hebbt mennigmool Striet,
un denn drinkt wi 'passavant' 'n Buddel franzööschen Roudwien un verdreegt
uns weller!

(Summary in English:
It's not absolutely garbage from the beginning- enough place in the world of
linguism for all- even for those 'francophiles' jumping across the Saxon
boarders ;-).
Believe in that: P. Kaempfert and me often are quarreling, but with a bottle
of French red wine we'll always find a way to get on together!)

Greutens/Regards

Is dat de uutspraak vun "passlatant" na 'n buddel wyn or drey?

I bet! Sure I believe!  ;-)  Cabernet Etymon, Château des Fantasques, by any 
chance?

Kumpelmenten,
Reinhard/Ron
