Volume 12 of the Best Pennsylvania German Dictionary out there!
The Comprehensive Pennsylvania German dictionary is still the best Deitsch dictionary out there! Volume 12 is the final volume of the set and a supplement containing additional words from A-Z.

The Comprehensive Pennsylvania German Dictionary uses the modern B-B-B orthographic system, like you would see in Hiwwe wie Driwwe, rather than the spelling system used in Es Nei Teshtament.

The majority of the supplemental text covers vocabulary from Ernest Waldo Bechtel, so if you are going to read the writings of Bechtel, it is probably in your best interest to pick up Volume 12.
