[post_page_title]The many languages of the Amish[/post_page_title]
Amish daily life is very different from the daily life of most Americans, and that is proven true by the fact that most Amish people are fluent in three different languages. For most official and educational events, just plain English is used. This is so that the children don’t have a different experience than the rest of America.
As for the other two languages, both German and Pennsylvania Dutch are spoken in certain scenarios. Most religious events use German as a way of honoring tradition while many people used Pennsylvania Dutch conversationally.
