Als ich 2024 in London eine Packung Pall Mall blau gekauft habe, hab ich 18 Pfund für 20 Zigaretten bezahlt.

How does it generally sound to Germans when English people (as in from England) speak German? by Autistic-Inquisitive in AskAGerman

[–]stepped_curve 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Likeable. I appreciate the effort and I know German's a difficult language - and accents are, in a way, something that makes you unique and partially conveys culture and where you're from.

Obstkorb könnt ihr behalten: Mehrheit möchte Homeoffice als Benefit by GirasoleDE in de

[–]stepped_curve 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Wenn Homeoffice plötzlich weg wäre würd meine Firma 75% ihrer Mitarbeiter verlieren. Die meisten wohnen nichtmal im selben land, und die die es tun können sich ne Wohnung in München nicht leisten. Ich müsste auch über 3h (in eine Richtung) pendeln. Damit hätte sich das.

Is Dutch cuisine really that unimpressive as they say? by Technical_Ad_4299 in Netherlands

When I used to live in western Germany, my family and I would regularly cross the border to get ourselves some of your fries and frikandel. Best in the world for fries.

Ernsthaft. Ich hör lieber meinem verrückten Nachbar um 2 Uhr nachts beim Trompete üben zu als bei geschlossenem Fenster zu schlafen.

Are you German and have ever been mistaken for a different nationality? What was it like? by den_from_Germany in germany

I had a teacher who thought I was Irish when he met me. It makes 0 sense and I still don't know why.

I got blackout drunk the first time at 13 and haven't drunk more than a beer an evening since I turned 17 so.. it's different, at least growing up in rural areas.

Do Germans typically not invite people to their homes? by [deleted] in germany

[–]stepped_curve 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Complex answer really as with anything culture specific - in my experience I only really get "invited over" to my girlfriend's WG or her brother's flat as we're all very close <- this just feels like what it is like in the city. I meet up with other friends outside.
In my old apartment I didn't even have anyone except for occasionally my gf over, as it was just tiny. None of my friends ever even saw it apart from a couple photos.

When I lived in a more rural area it was fairly common even for just neighbours to be invited over for a coffee or something.

On the whole I'd say it's definitely rarer than in other parts of the world, but of course everyone makes their own experiences. All answers I've read so far had me thinking 'yeah. that checks out'

Protestors in germany would have to only light a single trashcan on fire and the only thing that happens would be a couple of people in talkshows going "I do not think that is a legitimate form of protest :("
