	SATERLAND,
		Saterland (Seelterlound) is tegenwoordig een gemeente van drie dorpen - Ramsloh (Roomelse), Strücklingen (Strukelje) en Scharrel (Schäddel) - in het noordwesten van het vroegere land Oldenburg.
		Toch is slechts een deel van de Nederduits sprekenden in Saterland zelf in staat om het Saterfries te verstaan, zo groot is het verschil.
		Dat is mijn boodschap vanuit het taaleiland Saterland.

		The Saterland was part of the archdeaconate of Merzen in the Diocese of Osnabrück until religious overlordship was given to Münster in 1803; the secular part went to the Dukes of Oldenburg.

	Saterland Frisian language - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Saterland Frisian, also known as Sater Frisian or Saterlandic (Seeltersk), is the last living dialect of the East Frisian language.
		Saterland (Seelterlound in the local language), which is believed to have been colonised by Frisians from East Frisia in the eleventh century, was for a long time surrounded by impassable moors.
		The vast majority of all native speakers are found among the elder generation; Saterlandic thus is a seriously endangered language.

	Frisian language - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		There are three varieties of Frisian: West Lauwers Frisian, Saterland Frisian, and North Frisian.
		Some linguists consider these three varieties, despite their mutual unintelligibility, to be dialects of one single Frisian language, while others consider them to be three separate languages, as do their speakers.
		In Germany, there are about 2,000 speakers of Frisian in the Saterland region of Lower Saxony, the Saterland's marshy fringe areas having long protected Frisian speech there from pressure by the surrounding Low German and High German languages.

	Projekat Rastko - Luzica / Project Rastko - Lusatia
		The Saterland Frisians are descended from those Frisians who, between 1100 and 1400, moved from the North Sea coast that had been devastated by storm tides, to settle, more to the south, in the Saterland where Westphalians had already settled.
		The population structure of the Saterland, as well as that of all regions of Germany, changed as a result of the general mobility in this century and the in-migration of refugees and expellees after the Second World War.
		Saterland Frisian, an Emsland-based dialect of the Old East Frisian language, continues to be used as the language of everyday oral communication by about 2,000 Sater Frisians.
