Just had some menonites come to my place to buy something last evening, and they confer amongst themselves in "low" german, which to my ear is much nicer sounding than the other variety.
I also like the sound of Swiss speaking "swiser dutch", which has a bit of sing song whistly lilt, and is apparently incomprehensable to anyone who wasn't raised with it.
A Canadian/german farmer down the road, did make much of his income translating german to english, mostly for technical manuals of equipment, but that work hss devolved into proof reading the automated translations, the whole translation industry having quietly been taken over.
Though another recent experience in a high end, high volume cabinetry shop full of exotic german equipment, revealed that technical support is done from germany, and requires muliti lingual tech support people to do voice calls.....down time on
