LEAVENWORTH, Wash. — The Bavarian Village of Leavenworth is speaking its own language with the unveiling of a new tongue-in-cheek dictionary called “Der Wordbook.”
Adding to the fun is a contest that invites wordsmiths to submit their own words following just two rules: words must start with “Der” and the definition must end with “Leavenworth, Washington.”
Those submitting Der words accepted for inclusion in Der Wordbook will be entered in a monthly drawing to win a free weekend in Leavenworth and other perks.
More information is available at the Leavenworth website.
