Absolutely true!! Here’s a story I thought was typical German: I got food poisoning in Austria and wound up in a hospital in Füßen. I was so sick I thought I was gonna die. But every morning (for a couple days) this old battle ax German nurse would come in first thing in the morning, look at me and say, “ AUFSTEHEN!!” I’d get up and shiver, sick to death standing there while she changed the sheets on the hospital bed...Ach Gott

Hi, i am hasna from Morocco. I would like to say something about Germany. First and foremost, i find that Germany is an incredible land with amazing natural resources, and the thing i like about it most is the natural landscape. For the Germans, i find them very smart and clever people. They might not be exactly like other peoples but they have a lot to say. For me The Germans are thoughtful citizens who, through history, have been thinking and growing in philosophy as well as many areas . I love how the Germans care about their people and country. I've learned that children's rights in Germany are taken care of by the government and by their fellow citizens as well. In contrast, in my country, human rights and especially children's rights are something which is , very often, not taken into consideration. An additional point that i like about the Germans is their honesty and politeness. I, actually, love honest people. I've had many life experiences where people said things like " hi, how are you? " but they didn't , truly, mean that they cared, and then every conversation was just superficial. Rather, i love how the Germans do things with their own conviction, not because they have to. I like the German dance. I've been learning many german dance moves. I've been learning the Bayern's schuhplattler , in which i fell in love. I don't want to end this comment without mentioning the German traditional music. Honestly, i'm into this kind of traditional music and the yodeling also. I love the German traditional music and i like each instrument used to produce it. Finally, i admire the Germans' punctuality. When i, first, learnt about it i was kind of surprised! But it's something that value a lot, in comparison to Morocco people here are kind of always late. Hhh i think it's kind of hard on us to be as punctual as you actually are. In conclusion, Germany and the Germans are very interesting. And actually there are unencumbered things that i like about this nation. Actually, It is such an inspiration to me .

It's typical german to say "I'm not typical german"

Hey guys! This episode had so much good content. I wanted to mention that the story about Cari parking, while really funny, was also really useful. Hearing someone speak in the past and tell a story like that helps for multiple reasons. The story was about something pretty common (parking), contained practical vocab, and also gave us some phrases for speaking in the past with Prateritum. Being able to tell stories is something that really makes us more capable to participate in conversations with native speakers beyond a basic level. Maybe you could do some videos with stories like that! Or make an episode asking some questions that would lead to a cool story in the past as an answer. Especially over everyday stuff. Just a thought! Thank you :)

Difference to Austria with the traffic lights: In most cities and crossings, with exception of the ones with much traffic even at night, the lights change to blinking yellow at night. So everyone has to be careful and checking out, when he/she wants to cross the street. So it's not necessary to wait in the night, unless there are cars coming.

In spite of having had a number of years of German study and a German penpal who knows hardly any English, the two times that I've been to Germany as an adult have been wonderful experiences with friendly people and the minute they knew that I was an English-speaker, they wanted to use their English as much as I wanted to use my German! And their English was usually much, much more practiced and polished than my German. (Sigh.)

I live in The Czech Republic and it's fascinating to see how so similar the Czech way of doing things is to the German. Almost everything they're saying in this segment is true for Czechs. Not surprising, given that a) they were under the Austrians for centuries, and b) Germany is 1 of our neighbours and still heavily influences a lot of business and economic things concerning Czech life. Whilst card use is more common now, here especially in the bigger cities, the other aspects -- being asked if haven't you the correct change or, getting annoyed looks for paying for something with a big bill -- are the same. Must be a Central European/Eastern European cultural phenomena -- although technically, Germany's more considered part of Western Europe, I know.

The traffic lights thing is very true. In the UK, it is pretty much up to your discretion when to cross. So, when I came to Germany I thought it would be the same and went to cross an empty street when it was a red man, only to find my German girlfriend pulling me back by the arm and telling me I "need to wait. You always need to wait. It's the rules." I only really obey those rules when she's around though.

This to me is hilarious. My English teacher once gave us an assignment when we talked about cultural differences in class (he was Canadian, being married to a German, so his insights were awesome). We had to form a hypothesis and prove or disprove it. Seeing as I had the topic "German pedestrians" I hypothesised that at a red pedestrian light a) women were more likely to stop than men and b) almost everyone would stop if there was a child (child being someone who looked to me under the age of 15 or something like that, basically not teenagers; but especially small children). And my hypotheses were proven right. Why am I telling you this? See, I was standing in my city centre in the middle of a really cold Saturday in November, freezing my behind off while watching people. I witnessed multiple times, that when couples wanted to cross, when there was a red light, the guy would march on and the woman almost ripping his arm out or getting hers almost ripped out in holding back their better half. They all got scolded by their girlfriends or at least received the stink eye. They all waited for green after that (except that one guy, his girlfriend almost fell over her feet getting dragged across the street). So your comment brought me back to that cold day in November! xD

I went to Berlin a couple of months ago and was surprised by this. The really strange thing is if there's a car coming the other way turning right, then it's allowed to go at the same moment the pedestrian light turns green. So you stand for a couple of minutes looking at an empty road and then as soon as you're signaled to go and step into the street you almost get run over.

Immer franz ital oder Brit. Denke....und das seit jahren. Nun. Wundern sie sich das der amerikaner dominiert? Mein mann sagte Mir das. Run amerikaner. Voila. Da ist es keiner denkt...

Hallo Cari und Janusch! Vielen Dank für "Easy german"! Ich gucke das Programm jedes mal und denke wie ich will euch kennenzulernen! Ihr seid geil :) Ich wollte über meine "typisch deutsch" Erfahrung erzählen. Alle meine Bekannte Mädels aus Deutschland haben immer dabei drei Sachen: Wasserflasche(kann leer sein), Strümpfe(auf Zufall von spontanes kalt) und Schal. Liebe Grüße aus Russland und Sibirien!

I love ur sense of humor 😂

Very nicely done. However I have my personal space intruded upon consistently in Germany. (What you called "comfort zone" which means something else: )) I find myself backing up and the German keeps stepping closer, until I am backed against a wall and now they're so close they're breathing on me. So it's not just the absolute lack of personal space, it's the inability to read body language when someone is trying to create the space. I left Aldi crying once because I gave the person in line ahead of me "American space" and a little old man cut in front of me, telling me I was standing in line incorrectly. Always, always keep a shopping cart *behind* you in the line, or else you'll have someone actually bumping into you with no apology. Although staring is not considered rude here in Germany, I wish so much that Germans would realize not everyong around them is a German person. That it is considered extremely rude in other lands, not just a lack of manners, but considered *aggressive*.

Sehr cooles Video, ihr beiden!Ich muss sagen, ich habe echt gestaunt, wie viel deutsches Kulturgut ich doch in mir trage, obwohl ich von mir selbst immer sage, ich bin eher türkisch. Vor allem an der Stelle mit dem Joggen-in-den-Kalender-schreiben musste ich echt lachen, mega lustig! :D Und ich habe bei mir selbst tatsächlich auch gemerkt, dass ich selbst bei Freizeitaktivitäten nicht so "frei" bin, sondern mir manchmal sogar denke "Soo, jetzt sitzt du hier (im Café oder so) schon 2 Stunden, so langsam könntest du auch wieder gehen"- Kennt das jemand? Richtig krank! :DIch hab' noch etwas typisch Deutsches: die Rechtschreibung! Es können bei weitem nicht alle sehr gut schreiben, aber es wird sehr viel mehr Wert darauf gelegt, wodurch es auch mehr Leute können. Im türkischen Kontext z.B. ist das gar nicht so. Ach, und was ich bei mir außer der fehlenden Spontanität gemerkt habe, ist, dass ich auch sehr direkt bin. Hier kommt es: Manuel, du bist mir sehr sympathisch! :DPS: Sorry für den Roman.

Danke Hayali 😍 - aber die Situation im Cafe verstehe ich nicht ganz 😂. Also du sitzt mit Freunden im Cafe und denkst, die könnten doch langsam wieder abhauen? 😂

Nein, nein! :D Ich denke mir nicht, die könnten langsam mal abhauen, sondern habe selbst quasi fast ein schlechtes Gewissen, wenn ich einfach nur stundenlang dasitze und beispielsweise den ganzen Tag "verschwende". :D Das tun manche Freunde in der Türkei. Ich könnte einfach nicht nur ein Getränk bestellen, es austrinken und dann noch 3 Stunden da sitzenbleiben. Zumindest würde ich noch was bestellen, um was gegen mein schlechtes Gewissen zu tun. :D Ich brauche da allg. sowas wie ein Zeitlimit, glaub ich. Ich muss also scheinbar wissen, wann das Chillen ein Ende hat, obwohl es mir ja eigentlich Spaß macht. :D Wieder ein Roman :D

Very interesting culture that is so different from America. Will have to put it on my list to visit.

Ich als Schweizerin finde, dass ihr Deutschen immer so eine positive Einstellung habt. Auch wenn ihr was beschreibt, oder von etwas redet, dann ist das immer so mit einer Freude verbunden. Ihr seit auch viel offener und lacht irgendwie mehr über Fehler als wir.. Da könnten wir wirklich manchmal eine Scheibe davon abschneiden... Achja und ihr seit extrem gute Berater und sehr Gastfreundlich!!!🤪👍 So und jetzt bitte nur noch gute Vorurteile gegenüber uns netten 🇨🇭🤪

Excelent! Danke!

I liked the video! Althought Confort-zone has other meaning.. I think you wanted to say: the proxemic or the space between people. ☺️👌🏽

Some things I associate with Germany: - Saure Gurken - Der SamstagsKrimi - Die Natur

Sonntagskrimi ist noch typischer.

Ahhh!!! Das macht mir echt nostalgisch für mein Leben in Deutschland! :'( Plötzlich kommt mir vor dass ich vielleicht doch in Deutschland besser passe. Ich bin auch pünktlich, seriös, effizient, und kann nicht tanzen.

Sehr lustig und interresant! Danke schoen fuer das Video!

Typisch deutsch? Wasser mit Kohlensäure. In den USA trinkt man ab und zu "seltzer" aber lieber stilles Wasser. Leitungswasser sogar. Aber in vielen deutschen Restauranten geht das nicht. In München habe ich nach Leitungswasser gefragt, und die Bedienung hat einfach "Nein" gesagt.

das war nicht rechtens, da Leitungswasser kostenfrei ausgeschängt werden muss, dies ist per gesetz geregelt. die Bedienung kannte sich wohl nicht aus.

Das ändert sich gaaaanz langsam mit neuen kulinarischen Einflüssen von ausserhalb, so gehört mittlerweile ein Glas Leitungswasser zumindest in hipperen Cafés zum Cappuccino/Espresso... Ich glaube sogar, die Gesetzeslage hat sich geändert und auf Nachfrage muss man in einem Restaurant auch Leitungswasser bringen. Aber grundsätzlich stimmt das: Stilles Wasser nur beim Sport in großen Mengen, aber beim Essen/im Café etc. Mineralwasser (am liebsten „Medium“, denn zu viel Sprudel sollte es ja auch nicht sein :-D ).

When I asked for a glass of tap water in Nuremberg, the waitress charged me for it which never happens in America. It happened more than once in Sud Deutschland

I'm a fan of drinking warm drinks, especially during the summer (UK version). Did you know that drinking something warm/hot while the temperature is high actually cools you down? It's true, people who live in the desert drink tea a hundred times a day- try it, it's the way forward.

+Fatima Hudoon I am afraid she didn't mean tea but stuff that is supposed to be drunken cold, like beer or soda, but wasn't cooled :)
