    As a Texan, so much of Texas culture suddenly makes so much more sense to me. I knew we were heavily influenced by German immigration, and a lot of city and street names are all in German, but the DIRECTNESS with the cake offering TikTok killed me. Texans are so direct, we come across to other Americans as being almost confrontational. Like, why would I beat around the bush and play all these weird, passive-aggressive games?! And yes, I can see how Bavaria is the Texas of Germany LOL.

      @@DeutschFuerEuch the cost of living here is much higher, but I also think Alaskans generally appreciate hard work. The service industry is no exception to that. I believe Alaska is actually considered the hardest working state in the US. There are a lot of union workers (construction, railroaders, etc) and a lot of people work up north on the pipelines. It's a richer state that gives.
      Might also be because there's less people and they can do that! 😁

    Here's a socialization tip from an Arab (we hold the world title on this one): people tend to pretend to refuse something they want because in that same culture people (kind of) feel they need to offer things they might not really want to give, just to be polite. You refuse and see if it's a genuine offer or simple politeness. The only issue happens when people from two different cultures interact.

      @@DeutschFuerEuch HAHA, I wondered whether I should add perkele after torille because I feel it is the quintessential Finnish word. But then I'm not a quintessential Finn but a heathen Hurri 🤣🤣. Hurri is a derogatory word used for us Swedish speaking Finns that we have coopted.
      I can't remember exactly but I believe that origin of the word comes from Russians living in Helsinki in the late 1800's trying to say "hur sa" which is not used these days but means "excuse me" as in could you repeat what you said.
      Have you ever studied Swedish I have followed you channel for many years, I seem to recall that besides your native German and Russian you know at least some French and Japanese. Swedish grammar is quite straightforward and I think pronunciation should not pose any problems.

    There is also the term of "Fachchinesisch". Fachsprache is the German word for jargon: so a system of specialized terms for a particular field. And Chinesisch ist Chinese. So I guess Fachchinesisch is used as an exaggeration: It's not just some jargon, it's jargon and also in Chinese, so you have basically no chance of understanding. And I guess there were even moments in history where people really had such a problem. I listened to a podcast the other day about a ship disaster and the ship was commaned by Belgians who spoke Flemish while a lot of the soldiers on the ship were Americans (I think). So one of the persons pointed out that the Belgians probably not just shouted their commands in Flemish while the ship sank, they probably also used naval jargon.

    Just stereotypically saying, Nordrhein-Westfalen people are direct and sometimes a bit rude. However, when you're direct and rude to them, they whine about it a lot. So, they think they could be direct and rude to you, but when you're direct to them, they start crying, really. LOL. But they're just generalizations to have a good laugh at. It all boils down to every single person. I'm a Latino and some of my traits are stereotypical and some others are not. For example: I'm really passionate and wear my heart on my sleeve sometimes (just like the Latino stereotype), but I'm super direct, which sometimes comes up as rude (not stereotypically Latino). This is true to most people.

    I might disagree with you on this, Katja. Most Germans are not direct and they're super politically correct. Once, a girl was talking to me about her Spanish "friends with benefits" and she told me how the guy treated her and all; she proceeded to show me a pic of him. I said to her, "He seems like a terrible person and he is ugly AF. But since you have fun with him, it's all up to you". She said that I was rude for saying he was ugly. I was like, "WTF? Germans were supposed to be direct". I wouldn't have said that he was ugly if, according to her description, the guy had treated her a bit better.

    • @DeutschFuerEuch

      Directness and rudeness are two very different things at times and Germans, like any other group, don't universally agree on where that boundary is, of course 🤷‍♀️ telling someone that a person they are dating is fugly lacks a certain understanding of how human psychology works IMHO. Of course she wasn't going to like that 😀 we're not aliens.
