| Abstract | In this paper the author situates the Plautdietsch dialect spoken by large numbers of Mennonites in South Central Kansas within the context of German settlement dialects in Kansas as well as in term of its historical development and current status. Salient features of the phonological and morpholoigcal structures of the dialects are examined as well as the lexicon with a view toward eventual comparative studies |
