HERMAN REMPEL'S PRONUNCIATION
EXERCISE
Project Origens
Based on Kjenn Jie Noch Plautdietsch? Mennonite Low
German Dictionary by Herman Rempel, this exercise enables you to
hear Mr Rempel pronouncing the Plautdietsch words as you read them in
text with their English language definition. You can also read his
introduction, which includes his notes on his orthography. His English
to Plautdietsch word-list is also available.
To do this pronunciation excercise, choose one of the
letters below. When this text file has opened, click on the corresponding
audio file, adjust the volume to a comfortable level and scroll down
on the text as you listen to Mr. Rempel pronounce each Plautdietsh word
beginning with that letter.

work in preserving the Plautdietsch language and promoting its use.
Further thanks to Herman for his generosity in freely sharing his work
with others! Special thanks also to Eugene Reimer and to Darryl Neustaedter
