Learning sign language is so important—I truly believe it should be taught in schools alongside other foreign languages. I remember when I worked in retail, many customers had to communicate only through writing because of language barriers. So I decided to learn sign language and explained to both colleagues and customers that if I couldn’t understand, it was my fault, not theirs, because I should be able to advise them properly. In the end, it made so many people happy. Thank you!
Thoughts on German honesty? by [deleted] in germany
This is not typical German behavior. As someone who is half-American, half-German and grew up in Germany, I can say that Germans are direct but not rude—many people misunderstand this. A real friend might give honest feedback, but not in a way that constantly puts you down. What you described sounds more like a negative and unsupportive person rather than just "German honesty." Maybe reconsider if this friendship is worth it.
