After Alte Fritz gained the throne, he and Voltaire didn't get along *AT ALL* well, and AF was the *exact opposite* of a crazed sex maniac. He was that great rarity, a ruler who was 110% dedicated to his country and his people. Revered to this very day, he was "The Great", indeed!

Kleiner Geschichtsunterricht in einem Lied, gefällt mir sehr gut und wird wunderbar gesungen von Günter Wewel mit einer herrlichen Melodie. Die Zeit selbst hätte ich nicht miterleben wollen (ein ebenso schön gesungenes kritisches Friedrich-Lied gibt's von Hannes Wader, Titel O König von Preußen). Aber egal, das Lied klingt toll. Und mit dem wechselnden langen und kurzen Singen der verschiedenen Wörter ist Fridericus Rex auch recht schwer zu singen. Ich kann mir nie merken, wie man welches Wort betont.

Do any germans roll R's like this in normal life and is it common? I find it to sound amazing

Not anymore

[@mananaVesta]

Lots of German dialects do roll the "r" - the dialects from Bavaria and Hamburg, for example.

[@_coolman_8941]

@ Plattdeutsch existiert sehr wohl noch, allerdings ist Plattdeutsch eine eigene Sprache, somit ist es wenn dann ein Akzent und kein Dialekt

[@htrland]

I believe rolling the R's is standard when performing German classical music, and is commonly heard in songs (lieder) and opera. In Schubert's numerous lieder, for example, you can hear the R's rolling even at the end of words, which almost never happens in modern standard German speech.

[@etzerdlasgaudistuben5300]
