De Sassenvlagg - de Witt-Rode

Wi hebbt en Vlagg för dat Plattdüütsche opstellt - de 'Witt-Rode'.

"En ne’e Vlagg stellt sik för. Wat de neddersassiske Spraak feelt, nich as Land man as Tungenslag, is en Symbool as Repräsentatschoon. Mit düssen Versöök vun en hanseaatsche Dinkhülp schall de Söök nee ansteken warrn."

New ‘Low Saxon’ discord server

I have created a new server for the Low Saxon language. Low Saxon is closely related to English, it was once the Baltic lingua franca of the Hanseatic League, but now it has become very endangered. We want to revive it, and this server is a perfect place to get in touch with the language, spoken in the Netherlands, Germany and Denmark and by the Russian-Mennonites and Pomeranians all around the globe. If you are a native speaker, learner or just interested, hop on board. We also have many general Germanic channels. Bedankt! :))

Endangered langblrs #1

As announced in the last post I want to introduce you from time to time to some endangered langblrs here on tumblr. I also hope that these posts will inspire you to send more langblrs in that deal with endangered, regional, minority, lesser-used and extinct etc. languages. 

Low Saxon

An endangered language in Northern Germany, the Netherlands and Denmark. The mother tongue of my humble self.

It is not really endangered, but since this blog also deals with smaller and lesser-used languages I include it here, too.

Also a lesser-used language but still worth to be included here.
