StNiToUcHE I spent six weeks in a french 3ème and their English level was the english level of a german class in year five (cm2) when they've had two to three years of English

[@boahkeinbockmehr]

@@saint-elohim6623 that's the new generation of schoolkids that started learning english in elementary school, sometimes even kindergarten. When i attended school (i am 26 now) we started with either latin or english as our second language in the 5th grade (first year of secondary school) and got the other from the 7th grade onwards. In the 8th we then had the choice between french and ancient greek and in the 10th we got spanish, so there has always been an emphasis on learning foreign languages in school. Though as we started way later in our education to learn english, my "generation" was never as proficient as the kids in this video. In fact my parents sent me for a year to canada in order for me to learn proper english, as they thought that the one taught at my school was lacking. Long story short: i am just as amazed as you by the level and accent of these kids english.

[@1Zaroc]

Nice video and (as a German ) I feel like you described the "german attitude" pretty good. But especially the school looked a bit 'polished'. You talked to kids who visit a upper class school or at least are not standing on the losing side of the society. But what do people think who seem to have a lower financial or educational background? Their point of view could have been a good addition to the video :)

[@nurichniemandsonst9639]

Um, so... never met any 'lower class' (btw, quite an ugly distinction to make) people who disagree with 'follow the rules that make sense to you'.

That is not ugly when you are a part of it. And indeed, it would have been different. There is an answer in the interview : they went to an upper class school class (add another class) in Paris. They are in the 10% (or less).

German tourists - especially budget tourists tend to be the worst.

[@boahkeinbockmehr]

There are rules in Spain O.o none that can't be negotiated with the police (though the Guardia civil is a different issue)! Keep in mind that Spain became a popular holiday destination because it was dirt cheap after decades of a mismanaged dictatorship, so it appealed and advertised to especially the lower class of German society that wanted to go on party trips somewhere sunny (hence nowadays less and less of those people are going to Spain and an increasing amount to the "gold beach" at the black sea). Overtime the tourist destinations built accomodation for this type of tourist, which in turn turned other tourists away from going to Spain. So in a way Spain has created its own selective type of tourists, though with increasing competition from former east-block party destinations, stricter enforced, new rules and rising prices this type of tourists will in the long term drizzle away from Spain, opening the possibility for Spain to actively advertise and accommodate to a more senior clientele (though it's kinda hard, as many beautiful beach towns are ruined by ugly giant hotels right at the beach - which might have been acceptable for the cheap mass tourism, but will hinder the development of any new type of tourists coming to Spain.

Brilliant school director you found there, truly stereotypical of what I remember my teachers to be.

Fellow german here. From my perspective this was a real nice insight view of our code. I love stereotypes, because there is in most cases a valid reason behind them. Just dont take things to seriously and just understand that it is a kind of a joke, a persiflage. Just for example, I laugh about the german stereotypes, but also I like cracking jokes about the french stereotypes about surrender easily in wartimes, but actual i have a lot of respect for all french soldiers. And, just like one of the pupils said, understanding other cultures makes it easier to grow more together, as an european, as well as a cosmopolitan. Im looking forward to more stereotrip episodes.~

Il y a aussi de la prostitution et du trafic de drogue qui sont tolérés tant que ça reste dans certains coins et que ça ne déborde pas. Beaucoup de gens vont dans les bâtiments abandonnés pour se balader, discuter même si ce sont des propriétés privés et c'est illégal. La police viennent les déloger mais calmement en disant "vous n'avez pas le droit d'être là vous devez partir" et les gens partent tranquillement.

Also bei mir ist es eher umgekehrt ich würde viel eher mit gebundenen Augen in Deutschland über die Straße gehen! Oder noch besser, in der Schweiz! Da weiss ich 100% ich bleib am Leben. "je pourrais me bander les yeux et traverser une rue de Paris"? C'est la façon la plus rapide de mourir au monde je pense. Alors oui ils font peut-être plus attention à Paris, mais ça ne veut pas dire pour autant qu'ils s'arrêtent et ça ne tient pas qu'aux voitures parce que tu peux te faire renverser par une trottinette un vélo un scooter une moto n'importe quoi parce que les Parisiens sont têtus et qu'ils traverseront quand même même si tu es sur la route.

[@hakusaito4808]

@@yuudanipenaparpaix9188 basically I said that going with blinded eyes through a road in Paris is suicidal because yes parisier pay more attention to the road but they just don't care if you're on the road so they keep driving because they think they have the priority even if it's means rolling you over

To be fair, that high school scene seems kind of staged. I'm doing my A-Levels next year and am in the English advanced course and while our English is quite good, you certainly can't expect that from all German students.

[@msa_rha]

This is not staged, I myself am a German student in grade 9, we speak English in math, biology, physics, chemistry, science, history and philosophy.

[@mionami9973]

@@msa_rha Do you go to a regular Gymnasium?

[@TheOzelot11]

It depends on where you are and which students you talk to. Germany has 16 federal states, each with their own educational system. Also there are up to 5 different forms of schools you can attend for a higher level degree. We have Gymnasium, generally the highest one (classes 5-12/13), Realschule (classes 5-10), Hauptschule (classes 5-9), Gesamtschule (classes 5-12/13, but mixed students from all school types) and the Berufsschule, which is usually for working place education, but you can also get the highest degree there. And this is still excluding private schools and Waldorf-schools. You may also have noticed that there are some schools that either have 12 or 13 classes and sometimes even both. That's due to a policy in some states that made them switch from 13 to 12 years till you reach the highest degree. But this policy has been reversed, re-reversed and switched around a lot of times. What I'm really saying here is that you can't take one class for the entirety of Germany, because the German educational system is an absolute cluster fuck of different states and their weird policies, which makes it just weird. There was even a policy introduced from the federal government to grant the states financial support for more digital education (much needed btw.), but a lot of states declined, because they feared intervention in their educational programs.

[@tiloalo]

Le niveau générale d'éducation est assez bas en France malheureusement

[@OllorbidaComment]

En soit, l'accent peut donner l'impression d'une meilleure maîtrise, mais je pense qu'ici ils ne restaient que dans des propos simples que les élèves français pourraient aussi exprimer. Les racines communes anglo-saxonnes aident sûrement ce point. Je voulais juste nuancer un peu ;)

It's funny because I stayed a few months in Berlin last year and I thought, being from Switzerland, that people would respect even more the lights and not cross when it's red. But only after a few weeks, I realised I was one of the few who waited until the light was green. People doing the same were in general the elderly or tourists. But then I also guess it depends on which parts of the city you go to.
