Easy German lessons ;-)

Bavaria, the Texas of Germany! (Sorry, didn’t mean to be insulting.)
Is this a dialect or something???

It was a misunderstanding. I just don't like Bavaria and nearly all, what has to do with it. Including Jodeln tradition.

@Tiki Tom It is at least as understandable as Bavarian dialect … … and hthose „authentic German“ and Bavarian „Old Heidelberg“ venues in USA…

Munich is Bavaria, you'd never get me in LederHosen for Ocktoberfest

 

[Turnip]

Me too, me too…

The only occasion you could see me wearing a Lederhose is the Wacken festival. Pretty similar to Oktoberfest meanwhile, just with bettet music…

Cassis juice??

Schwarzer Johannisbeersaft, Herr Kommandant!

 

[Trenchfriend]

But you may remember, that I tried to be fair.

Nürnberger Sausages is a plus for Bavaria. Whoever created them, is a genius. But one from the Frankenland would not call himself a Bayer, I guess.

I never visited the Oktoberfest München and never will. The "festival tourism" is also a big problem since twenty years, bringing festivals nearly to collapse, if the managment doesn't cut the number of visitors.
The Oktoberfest has also a newer highlight. People visiting just to experience the legendary Kotzhügel, because of Youtube.

I stayed in a former brothel that was changed to a hostel on the Reeperbahn. Was lovely. Hamburg is pretty awesome.

Try to spell that:

"Guten Tag!
Ich hätte gerne eine H e i ß k l e b e p i s t o l e"

Hello, do you got a hot glue gun?

After the Napolionic wars, the German Confederation was made up of 39 independent German speaking states that were only loosely associated with each other. Prior to that, the Holy Roman Empire (in roughly the same geographic territory) had something like 300 duchies, principalities, free states, etc, etc. I kinda get the idea that, deep down, these mini- and micro- allegiances Sometimes still are a more important part of one’s identity than today’s big country of Germany. Or am I getting that wrong? And Most/many of these former kingdoms are virtually unknown to most non-Germans. i Know I’m terribly ignorant about most of these places.

My mom was from a particular backwoods corner of Hessen, my dad was from Upper Silesia (Both were born pre-war.). Talk about Mars and Venus; they both spoke German but sometimes they could hardly understand each other.
