We weren’t even allowed to sing Slovenian in church.
-
We had an inn, and there we had to hang up posters:
-
“Carinthians speak German!”
-
You always had to look out who was at the inn – as there were spies around –

whether you spoke Slovenian or German.

Of course, if you knew there was nobody around, you spoke Slovenian.

We heard that there were so many that they didn’t know where to send them.

They stopped it then.
