A British family adopts a baby from Germany. They name the boy Gus, short for Gustav. He’s a studious infant, rarely crying and rarely causing much a fuss. The baby grows into a serious but healthy little boy, the only hiccup is that he doesn’t talk. The parents don’t care, they love Gus and he’s a great kid overall. Then, one day, when Gus is seven, the family is at a restaurant and out of nowhere, for the first time EVER, Gus lifts his head and tells the waiter his soup is cold. His parents are blown away, Gus can speak!! They wipe the tears from their eyes and ask if he can speak, why hasn’t he spoken til now? Gus ponders for a moment and replies: “Up until now, everything has been satisfactory”.

As a German, this was very funny to me. Always interesting how people from other countries see yours. I will say though that there's certainly regional differences as well in Germany, in terms of demeanor. For example, I was born in the Rhineland, western part of Germany, my family is from there and I lived there for the first 10 years of my life and still visit my family regularly. We moved up to northern Germany, and mostly people in the Rhineland are more jovial, but sometimes a bit disingenuous. Up here in the north they're usually more reserved, but very genuine.

[@roselandpetals]

I'm an American who recently got back from the Rhineland. Absolutely some of the best people there. Why would you say they can be a bit disingenuous?

@@roselandpetals They can be a bit gossipy from my experience and them acting nice when they meet you unfortunately doesn't mean they like you.

I think from a traditional perspective quite true. But also some stereotypes from 19th and 20th century are in the mix. Nowadays Germans are less homogenic. While diversity has many good sides, too much of it makes one lose a sense of identity within a culture. Like a dish with a tiny bit of all kinds of seasoning tastes like everything and nothing at the same time. Still, I like how Christoph makes quite a good comparison with humor and irony, which make both Germans and Austrians giggle. He is a genius. I'm German, but I always enjoyed my visits to Austria and the people there.

I lived in Germany in the 80s and visited Salzburg often. I was always amazed at the differences between Germans and Austrians. Germans, even waitresses, could be so rude to me. But in Austria everyone was friendly and kind! A friend and I arrived in Saltzburg late at night, after they had rolled up the sidewalks, about 8:30pm, and we had no hotel reservations and no idea where to go. A woman came up behind us as we were walking and asked, "Are you American soldiers?" I had to correct her! "He is. I'm in the Air Force!" She asked, "And do you have a place to stay?" "Uh, no." She said, "You can stay at my house. I have a pensión." We then walked right out of the train station and to her car and we were in our room in less than 15 minutes! Yes, it was her business. But she approached us and spoke to us out of the blue and she was so pleasant and friendly!

[@hanshandkante5055]

@@jimjam7928 But it is total nonsense. Germans are not like English and Austrians are not even a little bit like Irish. First of all - Bavarians and Austrians are closer to each other culturally, genetically and language wise, then bavarians and middle or north germans. Thats because most parts of bavaria and Austria where romanized and part of the Roman Empire. Later on Austria was a part of Bavaria and these parts of southern germany stayed catholic while the eastern and northern parts became protstants. Generally germans are more heterogenic as people then english. People from eastern germany have more slavic genes, people from norther germany have more scandinavian genes, people from west germany have more celtic genes etc So basically austrians/bavarians are just another german "tribe" while Irish and English are of totally different origin. Irish are ascendants of Celts and Romans and English are ascendants of the Anglo-Saxons and Anglo-Normans - germanic tribes from Denmark and France.

There are funny German jokes, just a different style. The language lacks ambiguity required for wordplay, so they rely more on narrative setup. Here's a German joke that stuck with me: A man jumps from a plane with a parachute. At 1000 ft he pulls the ripcord and to his dismay it snaps. At 800ft he pulls his backup chute but it gets tangled and fails to deploy. At 500ft he passes a repairman going in the opposite direction. "Hey, can you fix parachutes?" He yells. "Sorry," The repairman responds, "I only do boilers."

@@MichelKaspari From having this same conversation with other German speakers. For example my former project manager is a native German speaker who's super into (and really good at) English puns because, as he explained it, English has a lot more words and phrases with overlapping meanings than German - and where German's tendency is to tack words together to create more descriptive and nuanced variants, English will either crap out brand new words (which sometimes sound like completely unrelated ones) or slap alternate definitions onto existing words, making meaning much more variable based on context. Conversely I've been told about some German wordplay that just doesn't translate well; but it's more about sounding out words within a phrase or combining words in a silly way than ambiguous meanings. But you're right - I don't speak German so I don't know this firsthand. What are some examples of German's comedic ambiguity in your experience?

[@MrRoztoc]

In case you guys don't know that: Christoph Waltz was born in Vienna, Austria from an Austrian mother and a German father. At his birth he only held a German citizenship because of his father (Austrian law in 1956). At the age of 53, in 2010, he finally got the official Austrian nationality papers to be an Austrian citizen. So in fact he's holding a dual citizenship, the German since his birth and the Austrian one since 2010. He has three kids with an American psychotherapist to whom he was married. After the divorce he's now married for nine years to a German costume designer (one child together) and lives in LA and Berlin.

[@ownageDan]

mustve gotten special treatment because of his status then, because usually when you become an austrian citizen, you have to renounce your original citizenship. dual citizenship is only accepted in special cases (usually in cases where ius sanguinis and ius soli both apply, e.g. a child being born to austrian parents in the US)

[@bubshawt7648]
