Der Weihnachtsmarkt und der St Jacobs Market machen auch viel Spass. Ich bin seid Jahre lang nicht mehr da gewesen. Euer Video hat mir viele schoene Erinnerungen wieder gebracht. Ich bin vor 63 Jahren aus Deutschland nach Canada gekommen als ich 6 Jahre alt war. Wir haben zu Hause meistens Englisch gesprochen um die Sprache schneller zu lernen. Mein Deutsch ist nicht sehr gut aber Eurer Kanal hilft mir sehr. Vielen Dank.

This was really cool. Kitchener seems to be a great place to visit. The Pennsylvania "Dutch”, or should I say “Daitsch” is gradually dying down and the lady threw lots of English mannerisms such as "like", etc.., and even answered with a “thank you” instead of “Danke shön". But props to those German descendants anyway. It's not easy to keep the language alive after so many generations. The food looked yummy

it's an amazing language. As a Spanish speaker, German is a far more beautiful language than Spanish and it opens up your mind to different ways of thinking. It also makes you view English from another perspective(word order, cases). Learn what you can from Spanish but it's not too late to learn Deutsche. You can probably learn the basics and intermediate in 1yr or 2 and knowning Spanish helps too ( Cases,& Gender).

Most of the rural, small towns of the mid-west and even Pennsylvania contain obvious traces of 19th century German culture in the architectural design and subtle hints of culture: food, farming life, local festivities. I don't want to get criticized for this. Obviously, Germany is German and there is no comparison between Germany and the United States on many things, but there is probably more traces of the older German agriculture life in the United States then in Germany itself. I would only say that the traces of this culture is only really obvious when you visit the small towns and farming areas. Stay away from the larger towns, suburbs, cities, and "Germantowns". You have to visit towns like Berlin, Ohio or Amana, Iowa.

@@aramisortsbottcher8201 Unter die Amische und manche Mennonitische Gruppen sprechen die junge Leute es noch immer. In die alte Gebiete in Süd Pennsylvania wo die Sprache ursprünglich entstand und wo vor hundert Jahre jedermann es sprach, sogar Leute die keine Amishe oder Mennoniten waren, ist die Sprache fast ausgestorben. Viele alte Leute sprechen es zwar noch, aber haben es an ihre Kinder nicht weitergegeben. Obwohl die Amische es noch immer sprechen ist es für sie keine schriftliche Sprache; jedermann schreibt nur Englisch, und es gibt keine offizielle Schreibweise, noch Literatur auf Pennsylvania Deitsch. Daher verändert sich die Sprache unglaublich schnell und jede neue Generation ersetzt mehr der alten Vokabular mit englische Worte oder englische Worte die leicht verändert sind, und dadurch stirbt die Sprache langsam aus. Ein guter Beispiel dafür ist die Mennonitische Dame im Video die nicht wusste was “language” heißt. Ihre Generation hat das alte Wort, ‚Schprooch‘ mit dem Englischen ersetzt.

@@aramisortsbottcher8201 Hey! Yes, I'm 22. I'd say the younger generation doesn't use the language at all. At the local universities, German isn't taught past second year (contrast with French, which has courses available for all four years). There are Saturday German schools where they try to get the younger generation into the language but I didn't really learn much there in the years I attended (ages 9-13). Even having German grandparents I didn't understand much German (we always spoke English) until I started studying it on my own after high school. One of my friends has a very German last name too and doesn't understand a word. Sometimes at cafés and such you can hear older couples speaking in German. The locally owned bookstores have newspapers, magazines etc in German. The material is mostly targeted at adults/older people though, any German books I received as a kid were gifts from relatives in Germany/Austria. Honestly I think I've only heard one university student speaking it once on the phone. Oh, and once we had a German exchange student but I don't think anyone ever spoke in German to him. There used to be several German clubs but they're really struggling now because most of the members are older. Ex. my dad is part of the German-Canadian business club, I think the youngest members are in their late 40s & people don't think the young generation will really be interested in keeping these clubs running. I've come along a couple times to these meetings and they were held entirely in English. There are other clubs that perhaps do use Germans during their meetings but I wouldn't know. The anti-German feeling during WWI was very strong (it wasn't mentioned in the video, but that bust of Wilhelm II was stolen and still has never been found - there was also a German priest who was dragged out onto the streets and beaten). During the war, church services previously done in German switched over to English and never switched back. But even in the 50s/60s it still must have felt rather German because my grandfather who initially immigrated to Winnipeg (which is rather far away) was doing a trip to the U.S., returned through Kitchener and said how he felt really at home there & subsequently moved here. Nowadays it's more German in name/tradition - streets, Oktoberfest, Christkindl. We do also have a German remembrance day ceremony held at a church where German POWS are buried. There might be a bit of German used but the majority of such events are held in English. Hope this answered your question! And sorry for the wall of text, I got a bit carried away. :)

My father and his brothers were risen in spanish and really learnd german in primary school. My father wanted to give the language to the next generation, so my sister and I learnd spanish from a private teacher and later I had it for two years in highschool. But whenever I meet my grandparents and uncles they speak spanish to themselves (this sounds like they all have a "self talk", is there a better formulation?) and german to me, so I understand the language but can barely have a conversation.

Schleswig Holstein = North Sea German (Saxon). Swabia = Southern German (Standard German).. And so on and so forth.

Toll! Ich wusste es nicht, dass deutsche Klubs wie Concordia Club bestehen. Jetzt, will ich nach ein deutsche Klub gehen und die Essen sieht lecker aus. Ich will jetzt Spiegelei, Bratkartoffeln, und Mohnkuchen essen. Außerdem, hat ich nicht bemerkt, dass Fernsehen in Restaurants war nur typisch für den USA. Es ist sehr interessant, dass die Deutschen in Kanada viel von ihren Ethnischer Hintergrund erhalten.

The farmer's market looks really cool. :) I heard the beer and corn combination is called 'bikini' as well.

Als ich "Münster" auf dem Meisterbrief sah musste ich kurz grinsen. Wie klein die Welt doch ist! Liebe Grüße aus Steinfurt im schönen Münsterland
