Brazilian German is a generic name for German dialects spoken in Brazil. German dialects are already in use in Brazil as a result of the German settlement, made by Germans, Swiss, and Austrians. These dialects were evolved by foreign borrowings. They were influenced by another German dialect, and other immigrant languages — especially Italian, Spanish, Japanese, and Brazil’s national language, Portuguese. The most dominant spoken Brazilian German dialect is Riograndenser Hunsrückisch, a Brazilian variation of the Hunsrückisch dialect of German. But other dialects are also spoken as well, like the Austrian dialect spoken in Dreizehnlinden, Donauschwaben, Pomeranian or Pommersch, and Plautdietsch spoken by Russian Mennonites.
