This article is really a worthless piece of tripe-- inaccurate, extremely incomplete, totally uninformed, sourceless. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 12.76.131.250 ( talk) 22:56, 21 August 2008 (UTC)
... on this note, I removed a line in the education that was about % of schools offering German. It made no sense, and I read it's "source" article that was about Chinese language. -- 24.253.206.126 ( talk) 13:04, 25 November 2012 (UTC)
I think that this article should be renamed to 'German language in the United States', per the articles about the French and Spanish languages in the United States. Thanks. Vis-a-visconti ( talk) 03:29, 6 February 2011 (UTC)
There's no key to the image in the picture itself, its description, not even on Commons. It's absolutely worthless.-- 91.10.94.239 ( talk) 21:59, 25 August 2012 (UTC)
"As a result of anti-German sentiment during World War I, the fluency decreased from one generation to the next "
This is a dubious assertion on many levels. The proportion of any assimilated immigrant group who speak their ancestral language declines dramatically after the third and fourth generation, regardless of wars. I also think the word "fluency" is mis-used here. Eregli bob ( talk) 07:03, 1 July 2013 (UTC)

Since 8.74% of the population speaks German at home in Frankenmuth, MI (according to that town's Wik page), shouldn't this be mentioned, perhaps under "Michigan"? Kdammers ( talk) 20:10, 14 December 2023 (UTC)
Can the map be improved? I find it almost impossible to distinguish between the two lowest categories. Kdammers ( talk) 02:23, 27 December 2023 (UTC)
It's mentioned that Standard American German had usage, yet I haven't really heard much of this outside of this article and Texas German with the former using some of the "standard American German" from sources about Pennsylvania Dutch Davidalejandromc ( talk) 22:14, 3 February 2024 (UTC)
