- Description : A letter written by A. Magens (family of the Danish Lutheran J.M. Magens, who wrote the translation of the New Testament and the Grammar) to Hugo Schuchardt. The letter is written to show Schuchardt the Creole language and talks about the life of the Black population of St. Thomas. The letter also contains some proverbs. A. Magens remarks in his letter that his knowledge of Negerhollands is very limited, but that he is confident about what he knows. He asked the help of a girl from a Creole family to translate into Negerhollands, and he communicated with this girl in English. Two versions are included: AMAGENS.docx is the full version, including comments in German, AMAGENS_NHonly.docx contains only the Negerhollands text from the former version.
