Sheiza!
I didn’t take german because it was lyrical, I took it because the teacher was a milf with big boobs.
This is great.
I already knew the schmetterling (butterfly) one…such an ugly word for such a beautiful creature.
Dutch isn’t much better.
They sound as if they’re about to hock a loogie on ya.

Don’t mention The War….
Sounds like a very angry culture – always growling at each other.
When you’re drunk, don’t shout Heil Hitler to Germans.

Poles, Poles, Poles.
@Bill – you must have had the same teacher I had… Smokin hot, big-ass titties, big-ass ass…
She taught me quite a lot of German.
Sounds just like Austrian
Decades ago, when I learned that the German for “I Love You” sounded like “Ick libba dik,” I near hesitated to continue dating DH.

Having spent a year as an exchange student in (then West) Germany a lo-o-o-o-ong time ago, I can attest to the accuracy of some of this. But of course, it is overdone for comedic effect (and it worked). As for the people and the culture, however, they are very warm and kind, if a little… uh, structured. And I am now finding that we can no longer be so self-righteous about their stupidity and gullibility in falling for a charismatic, evil leader. As it turns out, such mistakes can happen to even the greatest country of them all.
Good one, Reiuxcat!
@ Golly G.
This (if a little… uh, structured) is the nicest way to say anal retentive that I’ve ever heard. 🙂
Heh, heh! You read between the lines well, PJ!
I spent almost a year in a U.S. army band in Germany and played at a lot of beer and wine festivals along the Rhine.
I can attest,that most of the Germans I encountered were happy drunks who wouldn’t hurt a flea.
Hitler apparently could not tolerate other cultures,however(witness the holocaust).
He couldn’t tolerate tequila for instance. Other Gerrmas become celebratory, while it only made him even angrier. 😉
As they said in ‘Amadeus’ — German is too brutal for singing…. apparently that is true for speaking as well.
Great fun.
I took German in school (Dad stationed at Ramstein AFB) from 60-63 but don’t remember a word of it.
in German: “guter Sprecher”
may have changed votes of the Lofos who believe Biden and Barky are ‘good speakers’
The only foreign language that sounds decent is formal Italian. It lends well to music.
Funny how German is the easiest language to read for English speakers. This was a hilarious demonstration though.
Of course, don’t forget the original German phrase for ‘no heat’:
“Volkswagen”.
grayscape – flunked 3 years of it, dragging down my grade point average just to see them shake.
Which brings us to today’s word ….. Backpfeifengesicht !!!!!!
Now this is the way to learn German! The only way to improve it is to use a hot Blonde or a Panzer Kampfwagen 2!
