Not to mention the regional dialects WITHIN each Bundesland. The next "normal" sized town is only about a 20 minute drive from my village, and their dialect already varies from ours 😂

I live in the USA (in the most populated Metro Area) & like Germans, growing up & for most of my life I & everyone I knew & in American mainstream culture & "Grilling" & "Barbecuing" were used interchangeably & most still don't distinguish the two!!

Plattdeutsch is also hardcore. I'm from southern germany and as soon as platt os spoken, I'm clueless 😂

Kölsch is hard but few people can still speak it in and around cologne. Friesisch is also very weird and almost extinct, though there are now even classes in school to try and preserve the dialect. Friesisch would be North-Sea coastal region and the islands.

I'd say I pretty much understand them all except for platt(-deutsch), I just cannot

Brackwasser - Bier mit Wasser (ist zu vermeiden) Und mein Favorit ist und bleibt Schmutzwasser - Altbier mit Cola Gibt nichts besseres 😂

I'm from Pfalz and for me Friesisch is the hardest to understand.

7:33 😯😯😯😯😯 I NEED (!) to watch this show!! I have to. I must. Honestly.

my aunt who is living in the states for about 25 years is always happy when she visit us in austria to get good bread

I am from Bayern, Unterfranken to be specific, I can't really understand any other dialect

Probably Plattdeutsch if it's like this real hardcore Plattdeutsch, the "de Snor" instead of "die Schnur" ("the string").

Bayrisch ganz klar

The difference about accents and dialects is not understood in the US. Native speakers can never exhibit an accent in their own mother tongue! That's impossible! Texan, Australian, British, Kiwi, ..... all these accents are in fact dialects as all those countries speak English as their mother tongue. Dialects are varieties of a standard tongue.😉 However, if a person from Sweden, India, Germany, Brazil or any other foreign non-English speaking country speaks English they can very often have an accent specific to their native tongue. 😉 They speak English but sometimes they pronounce words or use grammar according to their own native language. Thus only foreign speakers can exhibit an accent whereas native speakers never will except they trained it like comedians sometimes do. E.g. imagine a white or black US-American speaking English with an Indian or a French accent. Concerning me it's very funny: Whenever I have come in contact with English native speakers they could not imagine I am German. For them I spoke kind of Australian dialect with a Dutch or Scandinavian accent. 😂

We love children, until they live above us and have their 5 minute tantrum for 5 hours.

It used to be like that in England.

Look at German child care and how much you pay for it. In my home town, the absolute maximum is 754€ per month, which is for a toddler (under 2) and 45 hours per week, if your yearly income is above 110.000€. If you make 62k or less and the child is above 2, you pay only 245€ per month for 45h per week. If you earn less than 27k it's always free. If you have more than one child, you pay only the _lowest_ rate. If this is your last year before school (I think they even increased it to the last two years), it's free. And I can let my 9 year old girl ride to dance practice and back on her bike without having to worry. And last but not least: there have been 14 school shootings / knife attacks (including universities and trade schools in Germany in this millennium. The US has had at least 50 so far in 2024 according to CNN. Germany pays 250€ per child per month to the parents / guardians. Noise that children make when playing / babies make when crying is legally no noise. You literally cannot make a noise complaint for children running around and playing. Of course, this does not extend to teenagers and party music, but even then I've never seen anyone calling the police. But that's probably because I live a bit more rural since finishing University.

Ever noticed, that it's either "Falz" (vernacular standard) or "Palz" (proper dialect) but never actually "Pfalz"? (Pälzisch/Fälzisch)

You are actually quite wrong. 1rst also kids who go to Realschule have the option to do then FOS and then got to college. 2nd our universities don’t teach less but our kids learn way more and have way more classes and subjects to take to finish Gymnasium. E.g they have to know 2 foreign langulanguages fluently to finish Gymnasium. They don’t just take way more classes each year that US students in high school, they also have all classes in Gymnasium on an AP level. That’s why universities don’t need to require kids to take basic classes in anything but start right with the core subject, because our kids had to finish those in Gymnasium

To tell the truth, there are a lot of German dialects you don't fully (or at all) understand as a German from a different region - especially if spoken fast

In Germany you are actually allowed to drink beer and wine at age 14 if they are with parents.

What you call pizza margarita in the US, we in Germany generally call pizza Napoli.

Nein in mv sprechen wir genau gleich vielleicht ein bisschen langsamer

voralrlbergerisch

Plattdeutsch

Unfortunately, America's police are militarized and are now a police state for-profit and unmitigated no recourse power. IMO

Wait untill the day you try "Captain Müllermilch" Captain Morgan + Müllermilch that's crazy

Beer with energydrink

Baileys + apple juice. It is called Gehirn (brain) or embryo. Why? Because it looks like it. Try it. It tastes disgusting, but looks great. Don't mix it though.

Kiba is my all time goat

Defenently, when I was 13 they still gave me a piece of sausage and a couple years later the butcher recognizes me and gives me another one

I'm German and I usually speak Hochdeutsch but I live in Bayern so I understand "bayrisch" as well. Aber pfälzisch ist nochmal was ganz anderes 😂

Swiss

I drink my coffee with milk and a spoon of cocoa powder. I'm from Rheinland Pfalz too and you need to come next year to Frankenthal for the Strohutfest. Biggest innercity winefest.

Coke have a drink called mezzo-mix which is fanta mixed with coke they used to have it in the uk

Wild camping is pretty much possible all across Scotland, just so long you take your rubbish (trash) with you, with only a few exceptions i.e. a permit is required (for camping at official 'wildcamp' spots) in the summer months in the Loch Lomond national park, and of course the MOD (ministry of defence) isn't going to like it if you wild camp just outside the Faslane nuclear submarine base. In the rest of the UK, wild camping is technically not legal, although in the northern mountains (lake district, Yorkshire dales) if you can find a hidden spot away from livestock and the road you won't have too many problems.

Komm over to Baden-Württemberg and well have a talk 😁

I did my conscription in finland and my mom brought me bread when she visited me. But tbh i missed the Döner the most during that time

Nussini is the Overlord, i am drinking only coke zero in can, its beautiful

It was pretty shocking when I figured out I could tear off a couple of stalks of celery from a bunch I. Whole Foods and just weight them out and use those. Somehow thar seemed European. But they stopped that. So, more leftover frozen celery in the freezer…. Cheers thanks 🇺🇸🇩🇪

Now some of the older dialects in germany are even hard to understand for germans, im born and raised in germany, close to the dutch border and when the older folks talk "Bokeltsen Platt" I personally dont understand a single word. Dutch people might understand more of it than I do :D

We called it Kinderkaffee - childrens coffee. I grew up drinking it and my siblings and I felt sooo adult when we drank it back in the days. Giving it to children to drink is perfectly fine since it is caffein free.

Try to add a little chocolate powder and it is perfect.

Living in Bayern and only can speak Hochdeutsch. Yes I was born in Bayern

Intresting...so if you don't pitch a tent..?

Ever tried Caro? That's muggefugg. It's not bad but I prefer the original psychoactive drink

Its not a german Dialekt its an austrian one but u might aswell call it a diferent language its called Zillertalerisch

Go to Austria and make such a video again, it’s always funny to watch people struggling with our dialects😂
