=Blech= (tin, a tin cup); dim. 'blechli.' Blechiche Bool (a tin _bowl_, i.e. a _dipper_, a convenient word which seems not to have been introduced). In Pennsylvanian English, a tin cup is _a tin_. In old English, 'than' represented _than_ and _then_, and PG. has 'dann' for both G. _dann_ (then) and _denn_ (for); and also 'wann' for _wann_ (when) and _wenn_ (if), as in Rachel Bahn's lines-- "Doch guckt 's ah recht huebsch un' Doch gukt 's aa recht hipsch un nice 'neis' Wann all die Baehm sin so foll ice--" Wan al dii beem sin so fǝl eis-- _Yet it looks_ (auch) _also right fair and 'nice'_ WHEN _all the trees are so full of ice._ "Forn bild der reinheit is 's doh, F'r 'n bild dǝr reinheit[1] iss ǝs doo, In fact, mer kenne sehne noh, 'in fækt,' m'r kennǝ seenǝ noo, Dass unser Hertz'[22] so rein muss dass unser hærts so rein[21] muss seih, sei˛, Wann in des Reich mer welle neih." wann in des reich m'r wellǝ nei˛. _For a picture of purity is it_ (da) _here, 'in fact'_ (wir können sehen darnach) _we can perceive therefrom, that our heart must be as pure_, (wenn in das reich wir wollen hinein) IF _we would enter into the kingdom_. =Baschtǝ= (to husk maize), from 'bascht,' G. _bast_ (soft inner bark, E. bast), applied in PG. to the husk of Indian corn.--Rachel Bahn (1869) thus uses it-- "Die leut sie hocke 's welshcorn ab, Dii leit sii hackǝ 's welschkarn ap, 'S is 'n rechte guhte crop, 's iss 'n rechte guute 'crap,' (fem.) Un' wann's daer genunk werd sei, un wan 's dærr genunk wært sei˛, Noh bashte sies un' fahres eih." noo baschtǝ sii 's un faarǝ 's ei˛. _The people they_ (ab-hacken) _chop off_ ('s, das) _the maize_, (es ist) _it is a right good 'crop,' and when_ (es) _it becomes_ (dürr genug) _dry enough, they_ (darnach) _afterwards husk it and_ (fahren) _haul it in_. =Greisslich= (to be disagreeably affected).

(Lat. stîpes), a prop, as of timber. G. nautical term _steiper_, a stanchion. =Schteiperǝ=, v.t. to prop; to set a prop. =Fǝrhúttǝlǝ=, v. intrans. 'Ich bin f'r-huttlt,' (I am confused, perplexed.) 'Ich denk dii bissnǝss iss 'n bissli f'r-huttlt.' (I think the 'business' is a bit mixed up.) G. verhūdeln (to spoil, bungle.)
