Ein kleiner Intensivkurs hessisch-Englisch

For your friends coming from abroad:

This might help, if you ever have to make your way to Frankfurt. It is the ultimate online-dictionary Suedhessisch-English. It´s purpose to increase the understanding of that southhessian culture in the center of Germany.

Southhesse is a region between Frankfurt/Main in the north and Mannheim in the south, from the Rhine to the east of the Mountains of 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.
