[@psalms1196]

@@nickwabd9877 typically many people don't like seeing bw live a stress free lifestyle. There is a stereotype that bw should be slaves, servants, or going through pain and trauma. Notice in movies bw are never the love intrest, damsel in distress. She is either the villain, servant (the help) or in some sad abusive relationship. Many people don't think bw are beautiful or worthy of being loved, protected, provided for.

It should be: "Ich glaube ich spinne!" It's a lowercase s in spinne, because it is a verb and does not refer to the animal. The Englisch equivalent even has the same etymology: to spin, meaning to fastly rotate something and in the context of the origin of the saying is a spinning wheel.

[@13of80]

The wider context is female criminals and mentally challenged were sent to an institution where they had to spin. In the Spinnhaus (Spinning house). Later on the verb had a second meaning (homonym); to spin also means being crazy. Now the sentence actually makes sense.

"to spin (a thread)" "The spider spins a web" "I think I'm crazy" / "You're crazy (yet)" The sentence comes from the earlier time when (mostly women) sat down to spin and exchanged "village gossip". Or also from the seaman's culture: "Spin a sailor's yarn" = tell unbelievable, fantastic stories.

Sven mentioned "Das kommt mir Spanisch vor" (this sounds Spanish / this appears Spanish to me), which has a different meaning: this sounds dubious.

[@MengSabei86]

Hi guys, thats a really funny video, thank you both for that. Btw, Sven mentioned between to sentences the "Spanisch". The saying goes "Das kommt mir Spanisch vor". It is a very very old saying. And the origine story is quite interesting (at least I think it is): The saying is around 500 years old, at which point the emperor of the Holy Roman Empire (now a days Germany) was Charles V. a Habsburger from Spain. And he brought a lot of Spanish customs and behaviours to the German emperors court, which the Germans where unfamiliar with, so it: "kam ihnen Spanish vor" which than was generalised to all strange things.

[@lolhcd]

A fun linguistic fact: Old English (spoken around 500-1100 AC) was a lot closer to today's German. Obviously, German back than was different too but it shows that German has been much more conservative when it came down to changes while English had a ton of French influence by the year 1300 and now of all foreign loanwords English has, over half of them is French or entered English from French via Latin or vice versa. Plus, English went hardcore "simplification mode". So every German speaking person who hears Old English or even Middle English (1100-1400 AC so even Shakespeare did not speak Middle English anymore but in fact, Early Modern English), will recognize Old/Middle English as almost a "brother" language to today's German rather than a "cousin". Other random examples: Hound = Dog, but the original word in English was "hound", which then changed semantic meaning into a dog breed, the hound. Meanwhile, the breed "dogge" took the place and now means "dog", encompassing the whole animal. German still uses "Hund" as an overarching term for dogs, retaining its original meaning. Wife = used to only mean "woman", in German, that word developed into "Weib", a now derogative term for a woman. Woman = derived from "wifman" and considering the earlier explanation, it literally means a man's "Weib" so the English word "woman", etymologically, means a man's female partner.

[@KolnFriedChicken]

Middle High German was kind of the Germanic protolanguage but it was in fact the German language that underwent great changes, the High German consonant shift (Zweite Lautverschiebung). The English language not that much. Germanic languages that didn't go through this change (like Plattdeutsch/ Low german or Friesisch/ Frisian) still sounding very close related to English or Dutch. Also German was more influenced by the Romans. One great example is the English word 'windows'. Before the Romans we didn't had glass, so the houses had little round 'eyes', called 'Windauge' (literally: wind eye), which became 'window' in English but 'Fenster' in German due to the Latin word 'finestra'. Still used in maritim language both English and German btw: Bullauge/ bull's eye (though porthole is more common). And - of course - you can still see the German consonant shift directly at work if you look at words like pan/ Pfanne (Low German: Pann) or apple/ Apfel (Low German: Appel).

"Ich glauge, ich spinne!" = "I think I am spinning." No spider! It comes from the time before television, when the women of the village met in the evening to spin for recreation, gossiping and telling each other incredible fictional stories for entertainment and having fun. So, there is an other saying: "Spinnen am Abend, erquickend und labend." = "Spinning in the evening, refreshing and restorative." But, if a woman had to spin during the day, she didn't do it for fun, she didn't have a better paying job and she was poor, so "Spinnen am Morgen, Kummer und Sorgen." = "Spinning in the morning, sorrow and worry."

[@witzenschaftler_in]

So this is very pedantic but, "Ich glaub ich spinne." can't actually be translated to "I think I spider" because the "spinne" is in lowercase letters and therefore a verb and not a noun. It's "I think I'm spinning."

[@ZoieMarie]

Hmm but when you speak it you do not know if it’s lowercase or not right? I immediately thought spider when hearing it.

[@witzenschaftler_in]

@@ZoieMarie oh yeah, for a non-native who hasn't seen it written before, I totally get that they think of spiders. Just not for an actual native speaker who does know how it's written. :)

"Ich glaube, ich spinne" is mostly used when the speaker is annoyed about something s/he finds hard to believe; usually it is about something that is the fault of another person whom s/he might think stupid or ill-behaved.

[@klausmessner2670]

Hello Zoie-Marie, your friend is wrong. "Ich glaube ich spinne" has nothing to do with spiders! In english it means something like "I think I'm crazy" or "I'm nuts". The second meaning of the word "spinne" is to produce threads on a spinning wheel. Only if you use the word "Spinne" as a noun (then you write it with a capital letter) it means "Spider". Sincerly, Klaus

[@d.l.3807]

I'm german, so here comes the grammar nazi. I am glad you added that "spinnen" can mean "to spin" aswell. And in this case it is actually the only thing that is possible. "Ich glaub ich spinne" has absolutely nothing to do with the animal and is just bad translation if you say "I think I spider". An indicator is, that in this phrase "spinne" is not written with a capital letter. If it would be about the animal, it would always be "Spinne", because spider is a noun and nouns are always capitalized in german. While "spinnen" is a verb and can be conjugated like "Ich spinne" -> "I spin", "Du spinnst" -> "You spin". So, they are not the same word but are related. A spider spins its web = Eine Spinne spinnt ihr Netz. Actually the verb "spinnen" has two meanings in german. 1. to spin/to yarn, 2. to go mad/to be mad. In this saying you would translate it with "I think I'm going mad". Also if you use it on other people like "Ich glaub, du spinnst!" -> "I think you are mad!" But "I think I'm spinning" would be a translation I would be fine with, because it uses the verb ;D Sry, I had to clarify this. I'm always cringing when a german translates this wrong. ^^

Swabian is actually closer to a language of its own than to a dialect. There are differences in grammar and vocabulary compared to standard German and even some sounds that do not occur phonetically in standard German. So I can understand very well that it is difficult for you when someone speaks Swabian to you to understand them. My favorite Swabian phrase: "Jetz' bass a mol uff, sonsch hau i dir so oins uff de Meggl nuff, dass'd hinnerschich d'Stäge na hagelsch!" (jetzt pass mal auf, sonst haue ich Dir so sehr auf den Kopf, dass Du rückwärts die Treppe herunterfällst!) - That's very diffrent to standard German. ;)

German is on my list of languages to learn! I want to learn Dutch, German, and ASL.🤎🤎🤎

[@kisoschu]

Dutch and German is very similar bc they both originate from the germanic language. But there has happened a vowel switch (I think it was the first germanic vowel switch) and if you understood which consonants switched its pretty easy to understand Dutch and German. One example for the switch has happened along the so called,, Benrather Linie" which affected the "k". Oversimplified one could say that the changes loose intensity the further north you go on the German map. That's why in munic(south) you say,, machen" where as in english, Dutch(north) you say,, make" or in Dutch,, maken". The vowel switch also happened with,, s" and,, t" and again it decreased its intensity the further north you go. So standard German it's,, was" but in English, Dutch or even in Berlin dialect (also north) its engl,, what", dutch,, wat", Berlin dialect,, wat". Or German,, wasser" - > engl,, water", Dutch,, water" or German,, essen" engl,, eat", Dutch,, eten" So if you just know which consonants switched its easy to understand Dutch and German bc it's so similar

The different dialects are part of the German cultural identity. Sadly they were seen as an obstacle some decades ago and a lot of children did only learn high German, the standard variation. Now they are getting more attention again and in some cases school classes actually treasure them in seperate teaching lessons. Sadly I can only understand the dialect of my older family members, but I can not really speak it fluently.

[@ron_nor_]

The train station makes total sense, since - you ever tried to understand a PA announcement there? Nerd alert: Ich glaub ich "spinne" - it's a verb and thus translated directly to I think I "weave". One meaning of to weave is actually to "think up" something. Those funny "direct" translations are often more meant as a joke, when they deliberately choose the wrong word. Like in "Ich genieße das Leben in vollen Zügen" "I enjoy life on full trains." Here obviously the saying is not referring to trains but to something like pulling - like on a cigarette, or in in rowing boat. ;) I love those kind of word games :D Das ist mir Wurst - In the past they just threw any left over meat into the sausage ;) Ich habe die Schnauze voll... I am fed up... There are many explanations for "Ich glaub mein Schwein pfeift." The most logical one is, that pigs tend to squeak when they are startled. More funny is, that there are more sayings with the same meaning, but with different animals - Ich glaub mich knutscht ein Elch! Ich glaub mein Hamster bohnert. for example :)

[@goetzkaufmann3533]

"Ich glaub' ich spinne" - that refers to the verb "spin", not to a spider. The most plausible translation is "I don't believe it" for expressing overwhelm about something. "Korinthenkacker" has a racistic background, originally against Greek emigrants and guest workers - and should not be used.

The 'Korinthen' in 'Korinthenkacker' are currants, named after Korinthiaki, a special kind of grapes from Korinth in Greece.

Spinnen as a verb means either making threads (to spin), or being crazy. As a noun it means spiders. But - here it's the verb. Instead of Korinthenkacker you might say "Erbsenzähler" (counting peas). Might be a bit nicer.

[@BerndEgert]

"Ich glaube, ich spinne" hat nichts mit "Spider" zu tun, sondern mit dem Verb "spinnen". Wurzel: Früher haben die Frauen Garn gesponnen und sich dabei unterhalten, bzw. Geschichten erzählt. So entstand das Wort "spinnen" als ein Synonym für "unglaubliche Geschichten erzählen" und das ist auch genau die Bedeutung von "jemand spinnt", jemand erzählt "verrückte Geschichten" und ist im Kopf verwirrt.
