Hallo! Was für ein tolles Video! 😄 I was waiting for it since I'm also learning German.
I understood what you said in German, but I don't know if I'm the right person to tell you that, haha
😄👍🏼

Correction:
Actually, we do have FOUR additional letters:
Ää, Öö, Üü and ẞß - but not everyone - austrians don't use it at all - consider the ẞß as part of the alphabet.
Also, because not a single german word begins with an ẞ, its existence in officially useable form as a majuscle letter - as of 29th of June 2017 - is questioned and critizised.
(Some germans don't know to this day, that the letter ß has a capital counterpart now - since six years)

I actually wanted to understand the difference between high and low German. Also, curious as to how low German might be very similar to Dutch or even English since the Anglo-Saxons did come from the part of Germany that speaks low German today

Hi! Just letting you know you did make a mistake when talking about the cases. The dative case of der Tisch is not "den Tisch" rather it is "dem Tisch". The sentence "ich lege die Blumen auf den Tisch" uses the accusative because there is movement occurring. You could say "Die Blumen liegen auf dem Tisch" (the flowers are on the table) and that time the dative case is used because the flowers are stationary on the table.
