As someone who speaks German, yes, this song is real and the words are totally legit. It’s freaking hilarious 😂😂

[@annedupin3540]

No, as a fellow German I have to admit that the German word for "abrakadabra" is "abrakadabra", not "abErakadabEra". The additional syllables are just added for rhythm's sake.

[@CardSharkGermany]

The German language is famous for combining two or more words that make sense. In English they would be separate. So for instance Rhubarb Bar Barbararian‘s Beard Barber (or the Barber who takes care of the Barbarian‘s Beards that like to go to Barbara‘s Bar that serves Rhubarb pie) ends up in Barbaras Rhabarberbar Barbarenbart Barbier. Sure, Bodo Wartke is famous using great music combined with tongue twisters.

[@2001kai]

Hallo

[@sciman5505]

​@@CardSharkGermany it gets even more extreme, we can summarize the whole thing in one word: der Barbarasrhabarberbarbarbarenbartbarbier ;D

[@tristanbowman7098]

Fili from German has an entire breaking down this song and it's meaning on her channel. Definitely watch it.

[@tommiejonsson8952]

I was going to suggest that, but i'll just do some small corrections. Feli from Germany is the name of the KZbinr.

[@anthonyperham1417]

Feli would be my recommendation too. Brilliant 🤣

[@franzoidle7002]

German is my first language(we’ll actually Austrian, but let’s not split hairs), though I grew up in Southern California. While I’m still fluent, this song has taught me some phrasing that only a 24/7 native speaker would know. I just saw a Viennese Dialect version of the song, wish my Dad was still around to enjoy it.

[@Dodl1]

Okay, yes, thanks for the nice reaction. As Austrian I indeed can help you. The tounge twister is based on the fact that you can put together near random nouns and make a new word out of it in german. So rhubarb cake in English stay separated words, even when joined to mean the finished cake, but in German Rhabarber (=Rhubarb) and Kuchen (=cake or pie) together make Rhabarberkuchen (Rhubarb cake). And you can join more nouns to it to make long funny words like "Rhabarbarbarbarbaren" (Rhabarber + Bar + Barbaren), it's additionally funny because parts of the word interject each others meaning then, making the name "Barbara" part of the naming without actually being the word its named after - or you can join it too and it makes "Rhabarberbarbarabarbarbaren" (Rhabarber +Barbara + Bar + Barbaren), any questions?

[@marcuscyron7382]

Probably it is important to say: even Germans, Austrians and others who speak german as mother language are finally not able to speak all these words. And this makes finally the fun here.

[@Tarasimonstudios]

[@77Tom77Tom77]

[@peterholzer4481]

@@marcuscyron7382 As far as tongue-twisters go I think those are fairly benign. The words get long but there are no weird consonant shifts like in "Brautkleid bleibt Brautkleid".

So the longest chain in the story is Rhabarber-barbara-barbarbaren-bart-barbier-bier-bar-bärbel which appears in the second song. Rhubarb-Barbara-Barbarian-Beard-Barber-Beer-bar-Bärbel (Name)

As a German person i love this so much 😅❤ i love that it is getting so international ❤ and in Germany we have even harder words like "Donaudampfschifffahrtselektrizitätenhauptbetriebswerkbauunterbeamtengesellschaft" for example. But no one uses this. ❤ You acctually said the words good. Oh and could you maybe react to Natalie Jane singing "Mount Everest ain't got sh*t on me" ? She does it so beautiful. I am her biggest fan and i was at two of her concerts and she sung it life. (It is not her song she just Covers it). It was so beautiful i started crying. ( Maybe i just started crying because i am like her biggest fan since two years but...😅) So if you could react to her i would be very happy ❤ and if you dont do it it is ok too. ❤❤❤

[@Tarasimonstudios]

Lol! No way that’s an actual word! I can see why it’s rarely used 😂

[@bernhardkrickl3567]

@@Tarasimonstudios It's a joke word, intentionally made up to show how you can, in principle, create ridiculously long and overly specific words in German by the mechanism of compound nouns. Other than that, nobody uses this word and you won't find it in a dictionary. Although, in legal texts you may find similar constructions. Maybe not quite as long.

Well, *I* am glad to learn that! I am a half-German American (military father, spent a few childhood years there!) and I don't remember ever having heard it before, pronounced either way! Danke schoen! (I actually came to the comment section to say something about her cringe-y pronunciation: abra-ca-Jabara.. 😖😂

[@BirgitJanczik]

@@trudygreer2491 Wow, how great ! Half German, half American. As a German I can assure you, the lyrics and words of the song are crazy. 😂 There is an original story where the words get even much longer than in the song and even for me as a German, it would be almost impossible to repeat those tongue twister words.

[@BirgitJanczik]

This is the original one. You go mad with this one. kzbin.info/www/bejne/nXiZY62Xrpiemc0si=1yGJVksDiaKPmF8f

[@BirgitJanczik]

The original can be seen as "Rhabarberbarbara" by winmic7. Looks like a cartoon version, but obviously I can not copy the link in here. It gets deleted repeatedly. So, if interested, you can find that crazy version in the search as told before. That one is completely insane. 🤣

[@anoukanouk5595]

The part 2 of this song is even better.

[@aresef]

In English we separate all these words but in German they become compounds, so that's where the tongue-twister that inspired this rap came from. The words for rhubarb, barbarian, barber etc all come from similar etymologies. So you end up with a compound word like Rhabarberbarbarabarbarbarenbartbarbierbierbarbärbel.

[@Tarasimonstudios]

Wow! 🤯

[@Mark_o_Helm]

Part 2 goes even farther.😁

[@DJMike1968]

Und ist viel besererererer

[@wastafus]

Every word has a meaning, the sentences are grammatically correct, which is quite a feat in German. The song / rap is a never ending tongue twister.

[@crowkraehenfrau2604]

The name Barbara was quite common in Germany when I was a child 60 years ago. Don't think it will come back because of the song, though.

[@Gulitize]

But it will likely come back in the natural cycle of names.

[@tammywehner3269]

lady, just go with it. it rocks!

[@schiffelers3944]

It's a Germanic/German tongue twister; however we also have the tong twister in Dutch. The same basically but in Dutch. Barbara's Rabarberbar. In Dutch we also have compound words. Like: Hottentottensoldatententententoonstelling, etc. It kinda feels like Llanfair­pwllgwyngyll­gogery­chwyrn­drobwll­llan­tysilio­gogo­goch Welsh town, + longest word in Welsh.

[@sonjagraves7183]

[@zeideerskine3462]

You should give Bold Wartke's Antigone cycle a chance or even better Theseus and the Minor air with classical acting instruction. A must for all opera singers.

[@schiffelers3944]

It's from an old childrens rhyme. But they have updated it with their part 2 video. Barbarasrhabarbarbardbarbierenbierbarbaby or something like that.

[@jrobertmoore9406]

It is the German language grammar of stringing together nouns that makes this so appealing and tongue twisting.

[@fritzmeier1717]

Your Abracadabra is just the english word for Abrakadabra...😉

[@Darkxwolf17-N13]

I love this song

[@Nazdreg1]

Welcome to German compound nouns! :D Yes, this is a nice quirk of our language that we can basically glue nouns together to create new ones. Like laptop or airport, just infinitely longer. So you end up with this. There is a second part where you will be introduced to the "Rhabarberbarbarabarbarenbartbarbierbierbarbaby"... kzbin.info/www/bejne/hnjZZp1_iZiKfrs here is a good explanation :)
