Thanks to ExpressVPN for sponsoring, go to expressvpn.com/xiaomanyc and find out how you can get 3 months of ExpressVPN free! In America people speak English, right? Well not if you go to Holmes County Ohio where despite having been in this country for centuries hundreds of thousands of Mennonite and Amish people, the more conservative of whom are famous for rejecting many aspects of modern life including cars and electricity, speak as their first language a dialect of German known as Pennsylvania Dutch. This language is actually surprisingly similar to my own ancestral Jewish language of Yiddish so I didn’t find it too hard to learn, and I was really excited to go and practice both with @millertimemusic3565's family, whom you may have seen in Peter Santenello’s videos, and also with total strangers which you can see in the second half of this video.

A lot of people are commenting something like "As a Dutch person, it sounds more German to me." To better explain, the language is a dialect of Germad the people are descendents of German settlers. The name Pennsylvania Dutch is decieving because it is a German dialect. If you recall the German word for German is Deutsch. So basically from a lot of accent and language changes from living in America, that word turned into Dutch. So Pennsylvania Dutch has nothing to do with the Dutch what so ever. It's really just an issue of older words referring to a region, translate that into English text and it comes out Dutch. It's a long story. But in short, Pennsylvania Dutch is really Pennsylvania German. Now I don't live too far from Amish country in Pennsylvania, been there a few times. I still cannot understand a lick of what they are saying though.

My grandparents owned a farm with 160+ acres and it was sold a couple years ago to an Amish family. They let the land sit for 2 years to grow natural produce and raise horses. It's an amazing transformation, especially since the farm sat as just a nice property to maintain for many years. We went back on Father's Day and took a walk to the old property to reminisce. We were met by the full family of mother, father, grandparents, and 10 kids. They brought us in because they recognized how special it would be for us to hold those memories of the property again. We all bonded over the love of the land, and as we were excited to see what they'd done for the place, they were equally excited to show us. And they literally let us walk around and stand in their rooms as we envisioned the old, sacred family space. It was so important for us as a family, and we were so happy to be welcomed by great energy now inhabiting the home.

I have several farms that I visit during the summer months for fresh vegetables and other items. They're much more engrained in the local community, even if they don't socialize much outside of their community circle. They rely a lot on neighbors (even the "English" when/if necessary) for help and support.

That's a German tradition - all the neighbours and relatives - who frequently are craftsmen with related skills - get together and help put up most of the structure of a new house over a few days. They're rewarded with beer and food in the short term but really the reward is that it's a mutual cooperation and folks do the same for you that you do for others. Maybe not the same folks but as long as the tradition lasts there's always others to come along and help and later be helped themselves. I saw a house raising in Germany in '76 when I spent a summer there as a schoolkid. It looks like the German tradition came across the ocean with the religious refugees that formed the community in Pennsylvania.
