   • 2001, Jeanny Friederich et al., Eng Klack fir eis Sprooch‎:

     Ze verstoen ass déi Kueberei nëmmen doduerch, datt däitschsproocheg (hessesch) Beamten déi lëtzebuergesch Nimm am 19. Joerhonnert no hirem Ouer opgeschriwwen hunn

     The ignorance is only to be understood as a result of the fact that German-speaking (Hessian) officials wrote down the Luxembourgish names in the 19th century from what they heard
