Why the Amish Are Laughing All the Way to the Bank
Speaking Tradition in Three Languages
While many people struggle to master a second language, the Amish community pulls off a linguistic hat trick, speaking not one, not two, but three languages fluently. Each Amish child grows up learning Pennsylvania Dutch, the German-based dialect that reflects their roots, alongside English, essential for interacting with the outside world.
On top of that, they read and study High German, used mainly in their religious texts. This multilingual skill set doesn’t just preserve their heritage; it gives them a surprising edge in the business world. Whether trading goods or navigating modern life, the Amish show that being trilingual is practical, purposeful, and perfectly possible—no college degree required.
