I have some familiarity with daily life. A friend had a really cool experience. He took German as a foreign language in school. We worked at a living history museum that purchased horses from an Amish horse trader, J was invited to Sunday meeting with the man's family because J was respectful and spoke excellent German. Afterwards, J said he was not comfortable with the suit he wore (pins, hooks and eyes make for interesting feelings when you are not accustomed to them), but he enjoyed the service. It was the first time he'd heard old High German in use.
