I 'think' my German is pretty decent because it takes me a while in a conversation in Germany or Austria before they want to bust in with their English, haha.
jennifer is like "wtf is happenening?" chris is married to arnolds daugther, so he should speak at least a little "german/austrian", but this was unexpected...
Ich weiß genau was er meint, das er immer Leute trifft die Englisch sprechen, 😅 gutes Englisch ist halt wesentlich weiter verbreitet als gutes Deutsch... Dann läuft es meist auf Englisch hinaus. Ein guter Freund von mir ist Däne und obwohl Deutsch dort weiter verbreitet ist, sprachen wir immer Englisch miteinander.
I understood almost everything except "aslam(?)" when he was speaking about Chris Evans... Anyone know what he was saying? The subtitles weren't very helpdul.
He even has an accent, though, I couldn’t tell you what region. I just remember having a teacher that lived in Germany somewhere and she sounded like this. Interesting!
Tja da hat der gute Chris schon Recht, uns wird es ja beigebracht Englisch zu sprechen, so haben englischsprachige Leute kaum eine Chance ihr Deutsch zu üben :D
Omg, ich kann nicht glauben, dass er deutsch kann. Ich würde mich so gerne mal mit ihm unterhalten. Wir könnten mal auf Englisch und mal auf deutsch reden und vielleicht beide die jeweils andere Sprache lernen. Omg, I can't believe he can speak german. I would love to talk to him. We could talk in English and sometimes in german and maybe both learn the other language.
I had the same issue when my school did the foreign exchange, Germans just can’t get enough of English for some reason. Hell, it feels like half the words German speakers use now are English words…
I visited Germany for 2 weeks in high school, the first or second day I was relatively frustrated that most people would speak English to me after a few sentences. They explained that the people were just trying to be polite as most Germans speak English quite well, they were trying to communicate in a way that would be easier for me.
