P.S. What is the language of the document linked to, Luxembourgish?
This is native luxemburgish. It is a dialect, related to the German language with some Dutch and little French elements. Today, it's spoken in Luxemburg, some parts of Belgium and France and in Germany in the Trier, Bitburg and Prüm area. Those, who grew up with the language, are well able to read and understand it. But in literature, this language in printed form is very rare, so you only find it in local papers or like here, in local historical publications.
