Bavarian language

The mystery of Therese, the miracle girl.

To the tiny Bavarian village of Connors Ruth, embedded in a low-lying valley between the towering peaks of the Fichtel Mountains, thousands of visitors are flocking to see a poor and simple German peasant girl called Therese Newman, and to witness the strange, inexplicable things which have happened to this frail and suffering young woman, called modern miracles.

Not all of the pilgrims who are streaming to the remote villages at the rate of 2,000 a day are drawn there by mere curiosity or religious zeal, urging them to see the girl whose unexplained powers have produced these strange phenomena.

There are among the visitors foremost representatives of modern science, eminent physicians, famous psychologists, renowned clerics, and historians all vainly trying to find some scientific explanation for the strange case of the stigmatic of Connors Ruth.

Simultaneously, wounds of the same nature became visible on the back of Therese's head.

On Fridays, when the white linen kerchief, which the peasant girl usually wears on the head, is removed, it shows the bloody marks of the stigmata in two symmetric semicircles.

According to the description of Dr. Baron Erwin von Eritten, one of the most noted Bavarian physicians, the stigmata first appeared on the back of the hands and feet and only broke through the thickness of the hands and feet a few weeks later.

The hand stigmata are as large as a one-cent coin.

His knowledge linguistic gave Ohlendorf fits, and brought a hot flush to the face of Berlitz.

What about, like, a soft Bavarian pretzel that's stuffed with

meat? Zero

I do love, you know, crab.

I'm a

seafood fan in general, and I love Bavarian pretzels.

So this combination intrigues me, especially if we get some of these fries, these potato wedges underneath with it.

So many people speak Bavarian dialects.

Maybe you didn't know that the different Austrian dialects actually belong to the Bavarian language family.

I remember that poster, the sixties.

There's, you know, a l- girl in a dirndl kleid, which was Bavarian.

The, the people where I lived did not d- dress that way.

Ooh.

But

But we were talking about the Croatian-Nazi connection.

It is...

The Czechs are on there, but it's the Bavarian Czechs.

Yeah, it's not necessarily Czechs or Nazis.
