| Abstract | Provides an overview of the history, sociolinguistic profile, and structural features of Plautdietsch (ISO 639-3: pdt) as it is spoken in Canada today. The majority of the Canadian varieties of Plautdietsch considered are maintained by Russian Mennonites and their descendants, and represent a constellation of related West Germanic varieties that have their roots in the Low Prussian (Niederpreussisch) dialects of Eastern Low German (Ostniederdeutsch). |
