Hallo Kari.
2
Hallo Manuel.
3
Wir haben vor ein paar Wochen ein Video gemacht, das hieß...
4
...8 Dinge, die du nicht in Deutschland tun solltest.
5
Dieses Video ist viral gegangen.
6
Hast du die Kommentare darunter gesehen?
7
Allerdings.
8
Da gab es sehr viele Vorschläge mit noch mehr Dingen, die man nicht tun sollte in Deutschland.
9
Sehr gute Vorschläge.
10
Und ein paar von diesen Vorschlägen wollen wir heute mal aufgreifen and show you in part 2 of this video series,
11
which will now continue, will now demonstrate and show you.
12
Let's go!
13
Excuse me, it's Sunday.
14
Oh, it's me a little bit.
15
Also, use the wrong Bohrer.
16
This is the important one.
17
Oh, yes.
18
Perfect.
19
Thank you very much.
20
Thanks.
21
See you again.
22
Make fun.
23
Yes, of course.
24
Good evening.
25
Good evening.
26
Sunday is for German a holy day.
27
That means that you don't work, the businesses are closed.
28
And the important thing is that people want their peace.
29
And depending on where you live in Germany and which neighbors you have, people take this seriously seriously.
30
If you are for example on Sunday music or on the wall, it can be in your house or you just say that it is forbidden
31
or you just say that you just want to say that.
32
This example, what you have seen here, played by Manuel and Janusz, actually happened.
33
Bye.
34
The people who were already in Germany were already shopping, have at the supermarket a certain stress feeling.
35
If you go to Germany shopping, you should prepare yourself a bit.
36
That's the way you should have to buy your own Tasks or your own backpack.
37
Because Tüten is only to buy, there are no cost-of-tuses.
38
And then you should be prepared.
39
Because if you're at the Kasse, everything is very fast.
40
The Waren are very fast going on and then they must be used to be used to be used.
41
There's no one who helps you to help you.
42
And the customers behind you, they look pretty ungodly, because they want to be able to get ready.
43
So, to be prepared, to be able to get everything in, and to be able to get everything out of the way.
44
That's the Devise.
45
We're going to the toilet.
46
Yes, of course.
47
One euro.
48
Two euro.
49
We don't have money.
50
That's not enough.
51
It's not enough.
52
You can park the park.
53
I thought it was normal to pay for toilets and public toilets to pay for the money, to pay for the money, to pay for the money.
54
Then I realized that in other countries it wasn't so.
55
In Germany you should be prepared for that, that a toilet can cost money.
56
That can be 50 cents, sometimes it can be a euro.
57
So, don't go without a little money to a toilet.
58
Also, I think the next important function of the Transcript player a function with which you can
59
regulate the speed of the spoken word.
60
You keep a secret from us.
61
We want the answer.
62
My life is so complicated, that I don't. So, again.
63
I think the next important function of the transcript player would be the...
64
4KQ!
65
4KQ!
66
Pshhhh!
67
I don't hold that up.
68
Yeah, Germany.
69
Because we are...
70
Deutschland!
71
Pssst!
72
Wir unterhalten uns.
73
In Deutschland wird es von vielen als unhöflich empfunden, wenn man in der Öffentlichkeit in einer Gruppe laut ist, sich laut unterhält oder laut lacht.
74
So typische Situationen sind zum Beispiel im Restaurant oder im Zug.
75
Gerade so Situationen, wo andere Leute sich vielleicht nicht unterhalten und dann in einer Gruppe sehr viel, ja, Krach gemacht wird.
76
I personally find it not so bad if others do that, but I'm always a bit when my group,
77
also my friends with whom I'm working, are the loudest in one place.
78
Hello, it's red.
79
Here are children.
80
In our last video we spoke already about it, that Germans take the rules very seriously.
81
And here we have another example.
82
In Germany should not go over a red flag.
83
Of course you can do it anyway, but you should be careful with sometimes strenge faces or sometimes a strange speech from your friends.
84
Hello!
85
There is a rule in Germany, which is a mix between a belief and a running gag.
86
I think most people don't really believe in it.
87
But anyway, all Germans are always aware of it, that the rule is defined.
88
And it is the rule, when you have to shoot at the angle, you have to look at the angle.
89
If you don't look at it, you'll have seven years of bad sex.
90
So, what's going to be?
91
I'd like a Snizel with a tomato, a tomato, a glass of water, a glass of water.
92
We don't have water, we have water, it costs 3,30€ on the card.
93
Man, I only need a glass of water from the hair, please.
94
Okay.
95
So, here's the water, but it's 1€.
96
In Germany, unfortunately, you can't make the mistake, in a restaurant gratis water to expect.
97
What is in other countries completely normal, is in Germany not normal.
98
That's why many restaurants are expensive food for food, but they make their main consumption through food.
99
We sometimes have a bit of it and we have actually already talked about it in our podcast.
100
The episode and the next segment, which is the most important thing, that's what we're doing here.
101
So Manuel, that's part 2.
102
When comes to part 3?
103
That's a good question.
104
I would say, if you want to like this video, please like this video.
105
And please write us a comment, because we are enjoying your experience.
106
What should we do not do in Germany?
107
What is strange in Germany?
108
Write us a comment.
109
And if you want to learn more about what is interesting, what is special in Germany or what is also what is in Germany, then listen to our podcast,
110
because there are also talking about it.
111
We have a segment called, which is what's nerve.
112
And we're always talking about that.
113
Because that's what do people do.
114
They're talking about things that don't work right in Germany.
115
Right. Or else.
116
Look at the link to our podcast.
117
And we'll see you soon on the channel on Monday.
118
Ciao!
119
Ciao!
120
Hello!
121
Here are children!
122
Again, I laughed at it.
123
You can't see the kids in the distance.
124
That's funny.
125
Okay guys, do you think that the Germans always use this calendar for doing things?
126
That's weird.
127
It is weird.
128
Yeah, it's weird.

Grammatica in deze video
De structuren die de spreker het meest gebruikt, met de exacte woorden uit de video:
| Structuur | In de video |
|---|---|
| Betrekkelijke bijzinnen who / which + zin — extra informatie over een persoon of ding | people who were · one who helps · Germany, which is |

| Present perfect have/has + voltooid deelwoord — iets uit het verleden dat nu nog telt | have seen · have actually already talked |
Uitspraak om op te letten
De spreker gebruikt 22 samentrekkingen en verkorte vormen, zoals don't, we're, can't. Spreek ze kort uit, zoals je ze hoort.

- Stemhebbende eindmedeklinker — /b/, /d/, /g/, /z/, /v/ niet verscherpen: forbid /fɚˈbɪd/, nerve /nɝv/, depend /dɪˈpɛnd/
- /æ/ — opener dan de Nederlandse “e”: podcast /ˈpɑdˌkæst/, transcript /ˈtɹæn.skɹɪpt/, gratis /ˈɡɹætɪs/, backpack /ˈbæk.pæk/, calendar /ˈkæl.ən.də/
- /g/ — een harde plofklank, geen Nederlandse “g”: segment /ˈsɛɡmɛnt/, gratis /ˈɡɹætɪs/, ungodly /ʌnˈɡɑdli/, regulate /ˈɹɛɡ.jə.leɪt/
Zo oefen je met deze video
- Luister de hele video één keer zonder te spreken en noteer de woorden die je niet kent.
- Spreek zin voor zin na op normale snelheid en herhaal elke zin tot je ritme gelijk is aan dat van de spreker.
- Neem jezelf op en vergelijk met het origineel; let daarbij op woorden als podcast, tomato, segment.
Wat is de Shadowing-techniek?
Shadowing is een wetenschappelijk onderbouwde taalleermethode die oorspronkelijk is ontwikkeld voor professionele tolkentraining en gepopulariseerd door polyglot Dr. Alexander Arguelles. De methode is eenvoudig maar krachtig: je luistert naar native Engelse audio en herhaalt het onmiddellijk hardop — als een schaduw die de spreker volgt met slechts 1–2 seconden vertraging. In tegenstelling tot passief luisteren of grammaticadrills, dwingt shadowing je hersenen en mondspieren om echte spraakpatronen tegelijkertijd te verwerken en te reproduceren. Onderzoek toont aan dat het de uitspraaknauwkeurigheid, intonatie, ritme, verbonden spraak, luisterbegrip en spreekvaardigheid aanzienlijk verbetert — waardoor het een van de meest effectieve methoden is voor IELTS Speaking-voorbereiding en echte Engelse communicatie.
