Funny fact: The oldest UK car maker was called Daimler because they built cars licensed from Daimler, Germany and BMWs very first car was an Austin 7 built under license. Another German company is Kärcher the pronunciation of which is so alien to the English tongue in their UK adverts they don't even try to use the correct German version. As for Aldi and the quality of their produce: A friend of mine here in the UK is a truck driver and for a couple of years he collected produce from farms and delivered it to distribution centres. Practically every farmer he spoke said that they wished to supply Aldi because they pay more however their produce did not yet pass Aldi minimum standards of quality so they continued to sell their veg to Sainsbury's and Tesco.

The Scottish accent is actually so much closer to German pronunciation than most English or American ones

yeah its a bit similar with the Irish, especially vowel pronuciation, expeciall the Irish U in Bus e.g. or the A in hand is often so much closer to the German pronunciation

Your accent already puts your pronunciation closer to German than most English accents for many sounds. So you pretty much repeated all brand names nearly perfectly, without the wild struggles I've heard in most of the reaction videos to this one. Weirdly, most English speakers cannot say "ah" (always "aj"), "eh" (ej), or o (ow).

As a Norwegian I find the German Pronunciation closest. Both English and German are easy to understand.

Luft is Air and Hansa is an old german word for Group or Guild - So Lufthansa can be translated to "Air Group". The name was also choosen for the resemblance to the Hanse (Hanseatic League), the medieval Seafaring and Trading Union, that dominated Central and Northern Europe for 400 years.

Even Mercedes Benz are two names, Benz from Gottlieb Benz the inventor of the car and founder of Daimler Benz the company making them and Mercedes was the daughter of his chief engineer Edwin Jellineck after whom a model was named which became the big success story for Daimler Benz. Later Mercedes-Benz became the car manufacturing part and Daimler-Benz the mother corporation (See also "Daimler-Chrysler") Volkswagen and Lufthansa are actually exceptions as no names have been integrated or served as inspiration. Miele, Siemens, Bayer (closer to "buyer" than "bay-urrr"), Thyssen-Krupp, Dr Oetker, Zeiss all come from the founder's name. But there are examples that would drive an english speaker mad too. One of the big competitors of Miele is AEG, which stands for "Allgemeine Elektrizitäts Gesellschaft" or "General electricity corporation", The biggest grocery store chain is a cooperative named "Edeka", which stems from "Einkaufsgenossenschaft deutscher Kolonialwarenhändler" (purchasing Coop of german colonial goods stores) and of course one of Bayer's competitors: BASF (Badische Anilin & Soda fabriken, factories for artificial dies made from the chemicals aniline and soda based in the area of Baden). I once worked at Leica too, an abbreviation of "Leitz Cameras", with Leitz being again the founder. we now spell Kamera with a k, but 125 years ago the conventions were more francophil... there was a big reform to remove such traces of foreign influence and several obsolete german spellings from the language around 1900, we also lost a lot of TH words then that now are only spelled with a T like Thür/Tür (door), only "noble" words like Thron (yes that is just a throne) kept their H)

I just realized I had completely forgotten how cute the Scottish accent is. To my German ears, that sounds so nice and homely. - I think it would be easier for you to learn the correct German pronunciation than, for example, for an USAmerican. Greetings to Malaysia from Germany! Have a nice day!

Miele is considered the best household appliance brand. As a European family it's not only a status symbol to own a washing machine by Miele, but surprisingly it can last 15 years easily and still work as brand new

BMW, Audi and especially Mercedes are considered luxury brands in Germany as well. Although in Germany the term premium is mostly used in this context. Although they really have some "affordable" models. A Mercedes A-Class sedan or hatchback starts around 37k €. A Volkswagen Golf starts nowadays at 30k (10 years ago maybe around 20k). So the difference is not as much as it used to be. But with extras I could bring a model with basic motorisation up to 45-50k for the Golf or over 70k for the Mercedes. But Mercedes also offers extras that are not available for a Golf or maybe Volkswagen in general. But extras with the same features are also more expensive for the Mercedes. And most Mercedes buyers don't go for a total basic model. But a lot of people like to buy used cars. They are way cheaper and especially Mercedes is known for longevity. But you can also find very durable older models of BMW and Audi.

Haribo is 1st choice. As long as you don't really care about your health condition. I love their stuff.

One of the first things that usually blows a visitors mind: Basically 99% of all taxis in Germany are Mercedes cars.

To be clear ... BMW, Audi, Mercedes and VW are also luxury brands in germany. VW was one time more like Opel i.e. but even their prices got off the charts a while back. They are only regular in that you see them more often, but that's due to the fact of having a larger pool of used ones, that can actually bought by normal people.

You gave them like 2 Kilos of Chestnuts and you would get a Kilo of Haribo gummies. You were set on candy for the whole year!

There was not much engineering in Bavaria in that era. 😉

The German Volk and British folk have the same Saxon origin. So, yes, the V is pronounced as F in most cases, except word with Latin origin. You have that in English as well, when it comes to knife/knives, wifw/wives, leaf/leaves, half/halves, belief/believe, life/live etc.

The aldi brothers didnt split the company, because they didnt get along. They split it so both have a fair share and splitted the company so both can "reach" approximately 50% ofe germanys population....so if you watch the "aldi equator", as we call it you can roughly see how the population splits among north and south

Hansa in Lufthansa come from Hanse (the medival sea trade union), that also had a depot in London

7:11 We call it VW because in the Emblem there is a V over a W. I dont know if everybody have seen it. ^^

I would not say that Audi, Mercedes and BMW are driven by all social classes. They are considered as luxury brands. Yes, if you work for one of those brands - even just in the factory, you mostly drive one of the newest models, but not because you could afford to buy one, but because of the unbeatable leasing terms you get. If you're part of the working class and don't work in the industrial sector, you usually can't afford a new one. I guess she either is not into cars and so she doesn't see the difference between a new one and a model that is 10 or 15 years old, or it is because she is from Munich, which is the richest and most expensive city in whole Germany.

12:07 By the way, ALDI is called "Hofer" in Austria and Slovenia.

BMW actually is the best brand for everyday's use cars. For your info: The Autobahn was actually built by the Reichsbahngesellschaft (the railway company), since the project was too big for any other company. Only the Reichsbahngesellschaft had experience with projects that size. HARIBO is nearly synonym for gum candies, like sellotape in England for any adhesive tape.

hansa comes from "Die Hanse", a large trading confederation in the holy roman empire in medieval europe, similar in concept and power to venice. they controlled trade in the baltic sea, and while its capital lübeck is now integrated into the state of schleswig-holstein, the cities hamburg and bremen are still independent states inside germany because of the special privileges and wealth they aquired as members of the hanseatic league. that's what the lufthansa is named after.

Rivalries between car brands were very common in Germany since the post-war golden age. They got popularized in the 90s-00s and brands had their fandom akin to and often also tied to football clubs. Life-long loyalty to these brands was like a creed for some. Opel vs VW and Mercedes vs BMW. In Swabia BMW had the nickname Bayerischer Mistwagen (bavarian manure wagon) and I'm sure they had theirs for the Benz. It died down with the advent of globalization biting into those traditional businesses and either dismantling them or muddling the brand so that it became unrecognizable. Especially Opel struggled with that, so did Mercedes. BMW had never fully stepped into the middle class segment and upheld its leadership position in the luxury car market, albeit the pole position remains contested between Mercedes and BMW, and VW is trying to nab at shares but struggles to establish a solid public awareness of its high-end cars. Im sure ppl will disagree, car stuff is rather polarizing in Germany still. With wage stagnation and Germany being a factually low-income state of late the market diversified and manufacturers founded spinoff brands like Skoda or Dacia to settle in the low to middle-class segment without tainting their brand by plebs. It's similar to ALDI selling brand business made products under an alias at a cheap price.

Since you mentioned the similarity between Volks and folks: there's a mind-blowing video about translating English to German simply by following a few rules based on the roots the two languages have kzread.info/dash/bejne/iJmWtbyreNDZeZc.html

While BMW has a high reputation as a carmaker, their drivers are a very different story...

I would say the best car brands in the luxury mass market (this excludes for me Porsche but also Jaguar and Rolls Royce) is BMW, Mercedes and maybe Audi they are on one level and just different about how the consumer is setting priorities about comfort (Mercedes) or driving fun (BMW). I think their cars are designed as a whole best, maybe due to long experience.

The instructor has probably had German roots, because read with German pronunciation it would have been quite correct.

Is there any relation between Hansa Rostock and Lufthansa? The word Hansa (the Latin word for Hanse) refers to the medieval northern European trade union "the Hanseatic League". Merchants from many cities bordering the North and the Baltic Sea have joined forces to conduct safe trade. In Hansa Rostock the name refers to the fact that Rostock was one of these old Hanseatic cities. In the term "Lufthansa", the word part Hansa is reminiscent of the Hanseatic League, since the Lufthansa was also a merger of several airlines. In the case of German car license plates, the 1, 2 or 3 letters in front of the federal state emblem and the test badge represent the city or district in which the car is registered. Here the following applies: The single-digit letter is assigned to the most populous city with this initial letter. According to this, Hamburg as the second most populous city in Germany after Berlin, should only have to have an H on its license plate. But the Hamburgers rejected this because they wanted to be expelled as the "Hanseatic City of Hamburg". That's why the code for Hamburg is "HH"! The same applies to Bremen (HB), Greifswald (HGW), Lübeck (HL), Rostock (HRO), Stralsund (HST) and Wismar (HWI). At all these plates, the "H" stands for "Hanseatic City"! (Sorry about this little trip to the complex world of German license plates) So there is no real relation between this two terms exept the reference to the Hanseatic League.

Auto Bavaria might even be a car dealership that is a BMW partner. I work for BMW customer support :,D And no, the logo is not a propeller but the Bavarian flag. People just think that it presents one. :)

Lufthansa and Hansa Rostock. The word Hansa baes on the Word Hanse, an ancient alliance oft trading cities in Europe. Its Englich name is Hanseatic League. Hanse is an 500 years old Germanic word for group. Rosticok was in this time a member of the Hanse. Luft means Air - Lufthansa - Air Group.

Fun Fact: If you care about those "You can divide the country by " type statistics, there's a divide in germany between people prefering gummy candy or licorice candy - the south prefers the gummies, the north likes to chew on licorice (and the more northern, the more you find heavier and heavier salted or flavored licorice). The unificating part about this? For both preferences Haribo is by far the most popular brand of choice.

I terms of car quality i would say it is a 2 horce race with Germany and Japan leading the rest but only by a small margin and you could make arguments about who is number 1.
