What is runt in Pennsylvania German?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

You probably are inspired by the movie "Witness", a case where a criminal is referred to by Samuel Lapp, the little boy, as "schtumpig".

Rachel Lapp, his mother, tells John Book (HarrisonFord) "On a farm, when a pig is born small like that, it's called schtumpig, a runt"

A more generalized phrase is wicht des Wurfes.

Can you hunt on your own property without a license in Pennsylvania?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

felons can hunt in pa with a bow or muzzle loader . for these weapons are not controlled under the same gun laws as shotguns , rifles or handguns. they can also hunt with a shotgun or rifle but they must barrow one. and must return the gun from whom they borrowed it the same day they borrowed it. they aren't allowed to own or keep one at their residence. the only way a felon can't hunt is if they are on probation or parole and were told there aren't allowed to posses any kind of weapon by their parole or probation officer. some felons are also required to sign a document stating they will never posses any weapon ever. but i think that depends on what kind of crime they commited. i.e murder

[http://www.westernpafootball.net/gotw-8/bishop-mcdevitt-one-of-12-high-schools-to-send-two-players-to-nfl-in-%E2%80%9909-draft/]

Among those 2009 draft picks...

In addition Ty Law who I believe is a free agent currently came from Aliquippa. And Tyler Palko played for West Allegheny High School.

On the Steelers roster there is:

Charlie Batch from Homestead, PA.

Jason Capizzi from Gibsonia, PA.

A.Q. Shipley from Coraopolis, PA.

Ryan Mundy from Forest Hills, PA.

That's just to name a few.

How did many of the first settlers of Pennsylvania come there?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

In the early years of exploration, the only way to reach distant territories was to first arrive by ship, if the location was near a port, and then, having arrived, proceed on foot or on horseback to wherever you were going. That is what occurred in Pennsylvania, when the Dutch, and then the British (especially the Quakers) created settlements in the region. There were no trains yet, so all expeditions over land occurred either by walking long distances or riding there on one's horse.
