You're going to have to ban him from all media.

I suggest getting the Rosetta Stone software for Dutch and trying to becoming Amish. See if you can get him to convert with you.

Barring that, block every channel on his television but O, We and Lifetime and burn his console.

Amish people speak German, they just call it "Pennsylvania Dutch" for some inscrutable Amish reason.

The German word for German is "Deutsch," which could easily be mistaken for Dutch. Admittedly, modern German and Amish German are very different, but the point remains

The Dutch word for Dutch, however, is Nederlands.

The confusion comes from the fact that there was such a thing is "Diets", which was an umbrella term for middle dutch languages somewhere is the middle ages.

"Diets" and "Deutsch" come from a same root, loosely translated to "people" - i.e. "the language of the people" (unlike Latin).

This obviously can be confusing, especially for Anglosaxon speakers, because they basically adopted an old bastardized version of "diets" for a language now called differently.

But anyway, I don't think I could understand the Amish.
