>> *dat leut*        HG: ist gegen den Wind geschützt        E:
>> sheltered from
> the
>> wind

Probably related to Dutch "luwte", West Frisian "lijte", places
sheltered from wind: "het ligt in de luwte",
or "it leit yn 'e lijte". Not as a verv though AFAIR.


>> *Fent*                HG: Geck
> E: dude, dandy

Related to Dutch "vent" : 'guy', and West Frisian "feint" 'farm hand,
boy friend'.
Seelter Frisian has "Fent" as well, as well as Dutch Low Saxon
varieties.

Nett as Ron dat al seggt hett: Dat is in Oostfreesland 'n heel normal
Woord för "junge Mann". So normal, dat dat ok in't Hoogdüütske seggt word.

>>*Raan, Raav*        HG: Schorf auf einer Wunde                E: scab on

Raav of Roov in't Oostfreeske. (Byl/Brückmann: Ostfr. Wörterbuch).
