you did pretty good 👍
I disagree with asking for a table. well in a way.
if you enter a restaurant and it's packed or you see a lot of these "Reserviert" (allready reserved) cards on empty tables, you should ask, otherwise, just have a seat wherever you like.
especially in front of the restaurant, i dont think you even could reserve a table outside if you wanted to.
@@kustanhardelus6919 oh good point, I really do not know if you are able to, I've never sat outside because I don't like it :D
You did well for not knowing German. I lived in Austria so I speak the language. Pronunciation is what is most difficult - and reading the words out loud especially. The German Alphabet has more letters than ours, and nearly ALL GERMAN LETTERS are pronounced differently than ours, especially the consonants, which are used more often than in English. And Unlike English, German pronunciation uses the mouth, lips, Throat, tongue, & nasal passages more extremely, so much so that it can distort your face in photos. Speaking German for hours on end soon made my face & mouth exhausted. But a young Austrian mother reading her children a bedtime story in softly spoken German - it just sounds like a magical-language, beautiful & textured.
In Germany, no matter where you go, restaurants, grocery stores, pharmacies......... everywhere the tax is already included in the price tags you see. So you don't ever have to worry about calculating in your head what the bill will be in the end.
Frei means free. Do you have a table free would translate to do you have a table available / not occupied but FREI. :)
A waiter will welcome you at first, give you the menu card and will ask what you like to drink while chosing your dish.
wtf why is your german pronunciation almost perferkt :D
LOL Danke! I try. I love the German language a lot
Ich schließe mich an, wenn Du das so gelernt hast und anwendest, wirst Du in Deutschland keine Probleme in einem Restaurant haben - good Job !
I agree, if you learn this and apply it, you will have no problems in a restaurant in Germany - good job!
Remember: Beer size depends on where you are. In cologne, large means 11 oz. In Bavaria, 34 oz.
For calling a waiter it is sufficient to rise your finger and make eye contact with the waiter.
Oder einfach laut durch den Raum brüllen... Bedienung!!!! 😂
In Germany, & most of Europe, Tips are already included in the price of your meal. Locals just round-up to the nearest 5 or 10, based on service. And wait-staff in Germany are paid a living wage, so unlike in America, they don't "Live" on their tips. I'm surprised that the fellow on the Video didn't mention this. In Vienna, where I attended international business school, the locals used to label people that told tourists to leave big tips, "Betruger", (or "Hucksters").
0:58 also 9:53 It's French, so we don't pronunce the "t". If it were German we would pronounce it. It is rather unusual to ask for a table in a restaurant. In most cases, you look around a bit questioningly and someone will take care of you, otherwise you sit down where you like. Your pronunciation is actually pretty good! Most English speakers have big problems with the German "ch" and "z" - you don't seem to have too much trouble with that.
I am german and I cant confirm everything he said, I carry always water with me especially in hot summer and nobody cares, literally. Maybe in really exquisite, for rich people restaurants where u need a reservation to even get a table, we say "gehobene Klasse".
Also u can tip in Germany but it is not expected to.
Tax is included not Extra Tax here and there like in the states 😉😉😉😉
I love that you try to speak German.
Respect
The tax is everywere and in all things included. So you pay the price you see, in the grocerys too. Käsespätzle is like Mac an Cheese but better!!😁😄 French words in Germany, will spoken the most time in the french prounonce.You did a great Job to ponouce the german words. When you come to germany, the most people in restaurants speak english too. So you can have a conversation to lern thr right or more german words. We in Germany give us time to celebrate the meal, cause the most of us do the most of the time homecooking.
your German is pretty good!
you are very good in your pronounciation, I am impressed, Americans (english speakers) usually have more problems. 👍🙋♂
Your pronounciation i not that bad. Well done! 👍
Frei = free.
Don't forget your W is a V sound, and V is more like a soft F! S without a T or P immediately following tends to sound more like a Z. If you listen closely you'll start to catch it! Wirklich!
free does not necessarily mean free of charge, but available.
Actually I wouldn't be worried to go to a german restaurant. Allmost every waiter understands english (maybe not speak it, but understand it). It might be different in a remote small town where the waiter is allready a senior person. But anywhere else I would expect the waiter to understand english. Also you can ask for an english menu. Some places have those, some don't, just ask. Might be helpful. The video is more interesting to learn of the procedure in german restaurants.
Das hast du gut gemacht!
Erstmal....da aufm Dorf wird es Gaststätte heißen....und dann setzt man sich am einen Tisch der nicht reserviert ist....meistens kommt da keiner und setzt dich iwo hin....
sounds french? ... yesss, its not american, it is french language ;-)
americans laugh about another language... oh man, amis know nothing if not happened in the usa )))
