To whom it may concern and don't know Polish: it's an article about the Vilamovian language with origins in (probably, it's not 100% sure) Dutch descendants who arrived in Poland in 13th language. It's heavily influenced by German and Polish mostly. Currently there are only dozens of people who speak this language (unfortunately, because of the situation during the II World War, when, due to similarities with German they were treaten as volksdeutschen, the communists repressed it). Now the 17 years old guy wants to resurrect the language before it's too late.

Thanks for the link. I'm originally from Bielsko-Biała and I've found out about Vilamovian only recently. I think it's fascinating!
