[@natashafernandes9364]

Hey guys! Love your channel! My name is Natasha and I’m an English native speaker, who recently started learning German. I find that the reason behind Germans directly translating “Wir sehen uns später” to “We see (us) later” is because of the “Reflexive Verb” rule. It’s really interesting! So, when I hear a German speaker making that mistake, I can hear where it’s stemming from 😊

I hear that most Germans have a "American" accent and not a British accent. When they talk in English ? As a American I never really notice ? I guess it is true because of American movies and tv shows ?

Some Germans say "or" and not "isn't it" at the end of yes-no-question. For example: Is it easy, isn't it? Germans would say: Is it easy, or?

[@Never_again_against_anyone]

That is because of literal translation; in German you would use the word "oder" at the end of such questions, which also means "or". Those who do that wrong either never learned about that or are out of practice.

[@anasamamx]

I am also Mexican and I was living in Austria learning German, after being there I am very confused about words in English and in German, haha I noticed that thing about “or”, and now once in awhile I also make that mistake, the same thing happens to me regards the verb “made” or with the pronunciation of certain words. Anyway I think it is very funny and now, every time, I am trying to catch those mistakes before making them xD

[@markdg33]

Love the video! A couple points as a writer and native English speaker: Joss, cuando dijiste "that problem" y Janik te corrigió diciendo "this problem", tú tenías la razón. "That problem" sería lo más correcto en ese caso. On the discussion of million, billion, trillion: Janik pointed out that a billion in English isn't the same as a billion in German. It's important to note that the same thing occurs in Spanish. In English, German, Spanish, and others, a million (un millón) describes the number 1,000,000. That is, a one with six zeroes following it. Put another way, it is one thousand times one thousand. In English, a billion describes the number 1,000,000,000. That is, a one with nine zeroes following it. Or one million times one thousand. This is distinct from German and Spanish, which use the terms "milliarde" and "mil millones" respectively to describe that number. Then, in English we use trillion to describe what would be "billón" in Spanish. This difference exists because of long vs short scales in the naming system of numbers. In English, we use short scale, which is based on multiples of a thousand. So each term greater than a million is a thousand times the previous term. A million times a thousand is a billion, a billion times a thousand is a trillion, a trillion times a thousand is a quadrillion, etc. In long scale, each "-illion" named term is a million times larger than the previous. A million times a million is a billion, a million times a billion is a trillion, a million times a trillion is a quadrillion, etc. Different names are used for the number in between. Before, in the USA we used short scale while the UK used long scale, but now we both use short scale, and in general short scale is now the accepted method in English speaking countries, as well as Arabic-speaking countries and Brazil (Portugal uses long scale, so this can be a source of confusion for Portuguese speakers traveling between Brazil and Portugal). In the majority of continental Europe, German-speaking, Spanish-speaking, and French-speaking countries, long scale is most commonly accepted. Puerto Rico is an example of a Spanish-speaking area that uses the short scale, because of the influence that the USA has there. As an additional note, in much of South and East Asia, they use a numbering system that is distinct from both short and long scale. Muchas gracias por el vídeo tan lindo, lo disfruté muchísimo cómo siempre! 👍

And in Spanish we also have the word "millardo" (accepted few years ago) but at least in Latin America we always use "mil millones".

[@dustyrelic239]

Luxury Adr this is very common among L2 speakers. I am a native English speaker but my wife spoke L2 English (she was from Greece). She studied English as a second language after moving here as an adult to improve her accent and as a result had many friends who also spoke L2 English and for whom English was their only language in common with my wife. I would hear my wife on the phone with one of them and always knew whom she was speaking with because she made different mistakes with each - mistakes by the way that she never made when speaking to me. It was as if each pair had their own “mutualect” that became the agreed upon way for them to communicate. Even though their speech was rife with errors it worked quite well for them and she remained friends with them throughout her life.

[@nairbvel]

Hi! As an American who's lived in South America and Europe, I *really* enjoyed this video -- it brought back some fun memories! (Yes, miscommunication *can* be fun. So there.) Some of the problems you mention seem to be pretty much universal, since English has such a mish-mash of odd rules & a logic all its own. (Now that I've said that, I realize that one can say that about most languages. Oh, well...) There were a few individual points in your video that made me go, "Hey!" so here they are.... 1) Where I come from, when someone says "beamer" -- usually spelled "Beemer" -- and it's a slang name for a BMW sports car. 2) Handy actually *is* a real word -- it's an adjective describing something or someone useful/helpful (which is why you can look in the phone directory for a "handyman" to do odd jobs for you). 3) I've heard a lot of non-native English speakers say "informations" (not just Europeans) and I can't quite figure out why! 4) You had a lot of fun with each other over pronunciation, but a little before that I noticed you were both saying, "Chef" with a "CH" sound... while most English speakers (at least in the US) will actually pronounce it more like the French "sheff." :-) 5) I long ago gave up on trying to accurately express large numbers verbally to anyone outside the Americas; the numbering system seems to have taken a hard left turn somewhere in the mid-Atlantic. It's easier to just say how many digits there are to the left of the decimal point... and then hope that no one gets into an argument over who uses commas and periods the "right" way or "wrong" way in large numbers... 6) You should both feel very proud over how multilingual you are, and how *good* you both are with multiple languages. :-) PS - I followed a "teach yourself" course in German when I lived in Belgium in the 1980s, and in the 1990s attended a series of actual classes in German... and I think I have maybe a 15 word vocabulary (most of it badly pronounced). Please take anything I said above that sounded like criticism with a very large grain of salt!

I’m happy that multiple languages and accents and differences and customs are more readily accepted as we all “mingle more globally”- compared to yesteryear. I love how you notice someone’s accent considerably at first- maybe you even struggle with understanding the person - but it dissipates remarkably fast as you get to know them, listen to them, and interact on a regular basis. That said, English is a crazy, messed-up language that breaks every rule it has every made. So impressed with your language skills -and your enthusiasm, too!

I was in a German hospital for 4 days and when I woke up from the operation, the nurse said: you're currently in a waking room. In a few minutes, we are taking you to the station. I replied in German: Ich gehe nicht zum Bahnhof. That is, I'm not going to the train station. Station in their terminology meant a department where patients of a particular health issue are hospitalised. Other mistakes I can think of: the use of word "ne" for isn't it, e.g. but that was written by James, ne? Another mistake I often see is the use of preposition from instead of of. For example, the bus from university instead of the bus of university. In German that would be der bus von Universität. The last one I can now think of is the use of please (in German Bitte) for you're welcome. A friend of mine said please in the end of a conversation and we laughed so hard. I love their accent, it's really cute! And, as I've started speaking German more and more, it's so challenging to say the word cool in a German accent where I've been saying it all my life in a proper English one.

Make a break means to run away, or run away from something! You're right in saying that "eine Pause machen" is "take a break". Another thing is, the word "Beamer" does exist in English!

Joss and Janik Mein Mann ist Schweizer und ich Mexikanerin . Ich identifiziere mich total mit eure Erfahrungen als Paar. Wir haben uns auch am Anfang nur auf Englisch kommuniziert und hatten auch lustige Erkenntnisse von unseres Englisch. Er sagte viel Lets do „something other“ (dabei meinte er „ machen wir etwas anderes“). Haha das ist immer noch jetzt ein Insider Joke für uns zwei. Herzliche Gratulation für euren Channel, ihr seid Hammer. Muchos saludos desde Zürich :)

In the Netherlands we also use the word ‘beamer’ :)

[@heymikeyh9577]

So funny-with the accent I thought they were saying “Bimmer,” which is American slang for BMW.

Interestingly, you'll sometimes hear "make yourself ready" in the midwest United States. It's probably a remnant of an older expression. E.g., "to make ready," as in "Make ready for battle!" or similar. It sounds a bit archaic. There's quite a few left-over, vestigial pieces of English floating around, such as the word "gotten," which is really only used in parts of the USA, but was once used more broadly. "What have you got?" (US English = "have", UK English = "have" or "received") vs. "What have you gotten?" (US English = "received", same as "What did you get?")

Loved the video and I am so glad your channel has grown so much! I have followed you guys since around 50K subs.

The word Beamer exists in English, but it has another meaning. Many english speaking people call the car brand which we call 'BMW' in German 'Beamer'

Idk why but the way joss said “I need to dust suck the apartment” was funny af lmao Also dust sucker is a funny name for a vacuum

[@Nutzername92a]

Makes more sense than "vacuum". The real name for it in English is "vacuum cleaner". A "vacuum" is an empty volume. So when people call a vacuum cleaner just "vacuum", it proves that they're kinda silly.

[@Roy-zu2vt]

Beamer is an English word, it isn't used anymore because it was what an old video projector was called, like the ones which make that cute krrrrr sound when starting. I guess it's a British term for the video projector. So, it's not a mistake. Although Handy doesn't make any sense, some say it is called a Handy because it is Handy to use, but that makes even less sense because then it should be called Praktisch or Handlich in German.

[@KendraAshanti]

My favorite German mistake: “since three years” instead of “for three years” cute😍

[@nadeshkaholmes9511]

I sort of know how to speak english (self taught with a lot of help from the internet) i mean i can write it but when it comes to speak in english i get so scared, basically because i'm afraid of making mistakes and because of the accent i'll have. But after watching your video i realise you're right, it's not bad to have an accent or make mistakes, i'm still learning after all. I will not get better if i don't practice. Love your videos guys

You two are too cool! I am trying to learn Spanish, so I understand the challenges with learning a new language. Here are some observations for you: You can actually say, ' I will go make myself ready', but it sounds snobbish(posh), so people don't say it. In North America, beamer is short for BMW, as in, 'i drove my beamer to work today'. Keep up the great work, and all the best from Canada!!

actually, "and now I make that stupid mistake" is correct.

El acento de mi país es confuso, porque en Argentina pronunciamos la "ll" y la "y" como sh. Por ejemplo decimos shuvia(lluvia), sho(yo).

A mí también me gusta mucho el acento argentino! Soy colombiana y he adoptado un poco la "ll" argentina. Soy de Cali y también usamos mucho el vos. Me encanta ver televisión argentina. Ahora vivo en Estados Unidos y todavía tengo acento latino. Eso no me importa ya que hay muchos acentos de diferentes países. El acento inglés y los acentos eslavos me encantan

I'm Greek and we use the verb “do” all the time when we speak English, like do a party, do a mistake, do a walk, do a picnic etc.
