German language – a likable Brit explains its weird wonderfulness

Spread the love

This simpatico Briton (below) does not mention  the most striking thing about German.

Its grammar is six thousand years old and very ancient, complicated, and full of rules. You cannot just start talking in deutsch.  You have to plan your sentence out.
.
And so when on German tv reporters ask average Germans questions about some event or their opinion, there is this two-three second gap where they are planning and building their sentence. 😉
.
All nouns must first be designated as a male, female or a thing. Nouns and verbs must be singular or plural… Adjectives must get proper endings. And sometimes you must pick up the verb and throw it, like a “Hail Mary” pass in American football, to the very end of your very long sentence. 😉 The advantage is that no one can interrupt you until then because until your verb lands, they don’t know entirely what you are talking about. 😉

 

And now to a remark I made 83 years ago that will make more sense. (04:36-38) “We Germans cannot do without a plan.” The language itself forces the Germans to speak, think and act according to a thought-out PLAN! 🙂

    “An extraordinary work by a gifted filmmaker, ‘Counter-Intelligence’ shines sunlight into the darkest crevices of empire run amok. The film vividly exposes a monstrous and unconstitutional ‘deep state’ in which multiple competing chains of command — all but one illegal — hijack government capabilities and taxpayer funds to commit crimes against humanity in our name. Anyone who cares about democracy, good government, and the future will want to watch all five segments of this remarkable film.”
