Information trouvée : John Peter Thiessen (14 April 1931 – 9 October 2022) was a Canadian Russian Mennonite
teacher, translator, and writer from Manitoba. Alongside Arnold Dyck and Reuben Epp,
he was an important contributor to the development of Mennonite Low German literature
as well as one of the language's most prominent lexicographers. In addition to Plautdietsch
writing, Thiessen wrote about Yiddish and translated numerous works, including Antoine
de Saint-Exupery's The Little Prince into Plautdietsch. Thiessen is perhaps most well
known for his influential Plautdietsch language dictionary
