This is the ultimate online-dictionary Südhessisch-English. It's purpose is to increase the understanding of that southhessian culture in the center of germany. Southhesse is the region between Frankfurt/Main in the north and Mannheim in the south, from the Rhine to the east of the mountains of the Odenwald. This wild region starts right behind the fence of the airport Frankfurt/Main. Any foreign passenger getting outside the secure airport will be happy, if he is able to express his wishes and needs.
For further information the Deutsch - Südhessisch Übersetzer, the Hessischer Sprachtest and the CD's of 'Badesalz' are recommended!
