Here am i, siting on my PC in the state of Paraíba (northeast) of Brazil, watching a vídeo of a dutch guy, in a Austrian city, inside Brazil, where people speaks German. Gotta love the internet.
You're in João Pessoa? I'm also from Paraíba, currently living in Russia, working in the Netherlands. Funny how the internet unites us - never thought I'd meet anyone from my homeland on the internet lol
Brazilian guy from the north of Paraná currently living in the West Midlands of England in the United Kingdom watching a Dutch guy speak German with Brazilians descended from Austrian migrants that live in Santa Catarina. Small world.
That's awesome!! I'm a mixture of Japanese with Italian living in the northwest of the state of São Paulo seeing all this, my God that's crazy. I loved the video and especially this comment
Im Tyrolean and I'm getting cultural and linguistic whiplash from this video, feels like a fever dream or an alternate reality because it loks quite Tyrolean for the most part but then some details are just off. Thank you very much for sharing!
@@LewisWirthpra quem conhece o Brasil, não há nada de bizarro. O Brasil tem um pedaço de cada parte do mundo. É o país mais multicultural e étnico do mundo.
O holandês é muito semelhante ao alemão. Mais ao menos a diferença entre o espanhol e português ou no máximo o português e o italiano. Eles aprendemos inglês e alemão/francês na escola. Então, a maioria dos holandeses fala umas 3 línguas por padrão. Daí se tiverem interesse em aprender mais uma ou duas línguas, já são 4 ou 5.
não posso dizer que aprendi muito mais na escola do que uma base moderada de inglês e apenas algum vocabulário de alemão. Eu diria que a maioria dos alunos não tinha muito interesse em alemão e o currículo não era ótimo, só mais tarde comecei a aprender sozinho. com os níveis mais baixos de educação, eles abandonam a terceira língua com mais frequência, mas ainda assim, sendo um país tão pequeno e tão próximo do alemão e do francês, muitos aprendem a falar pelo menos em algum nível decente, mesmo que não os tenham na escola
best ytb recommendation this month! really nice to see a gringo getting to know more about Brazil's extensive immigration background. looking foward to your next videos
Treze Tilias is an awesome place, beautiful houses without walls, very safe, calm, people are friendly and not even people born in Santa Catarina knows about it, I wonder how someone outside Brazil heard of it.
Chances are he has never heard about it. He might have heard there are places in Brazil where German is spoken. Then he opened Google and typed (where is german spoken in Brazil?).
@RogerRamos1993 actually as response to the both of you. I first got interested in this general topic during the COVID lockdowns. Frustrated with not being able to travel first I was mainly interested in its Japanese heritage cause not being able to go to Japan Brazil was one of the few countries that was open to travel. Sadly for other reasons I couldn’t go at the time but here I could finally more prepared then I’d have otherwise been. But finding out about the Japanese heritage places much less touristy then even this city was I started looking up more places which later became planning out my trip. I still remember looking at pictures on google maps of the miniature town about 4 years ago thinking about doing videos there. And after all that time only some of my ideas have been used by other UA-camrs and I’d say most of them aren’t up to a standard that I try to set for myself. Or they’re just kind of going for a different audience and atmosphere. These places are also the initial reasons why I’ve been learning Portuguese
I live nearby, in a German city called Blumenau. I never expected youtube to recommend me this video, it's great to see people enjoying our culture.(I know is not really nearby , it just feels like it since Brazil is huge)
Oh I’ve been there too, filmed a lot especially in smaller cities near there. I would say it was still quite a long drive, but do note I’m from a country much smaller than your entire state. So that means a bit of a different perspective
@@LewisWirth Exactly, it is not that close, but I felt it was since Brasil is that big. I live in Germany now, in Bonn, and I take less then 2 hours to get to Netherlands, which support my feeling of Brasil being a giant country.
Thanks mate, the main cities in Austria are still on my list to visit. I’ve only ever gone skiing there which was always amazing. I think most Dutch skiers go there
In the south of Brazil there was a significant colonization by Germanic peoples and, as many communities were isolated, they preserved the language and customs (although in some regions the Hunsrückisch dialect is spoken, and in the city of Pomerode, Pommeranisch). My family came to Brazil just before the First World War, and we all still speak German, although many of the family have already returned to Germany. I hope you're enjoying Brazil. Best regards from São Bento do Sul - Santa Catarina.
Heyyy I’ve been to Sao Bento do Sul! I’m still not sure how I’ll use the footage from there because the weather was horrible when I visited but it was a nice experience there’s many beautiful historic buildings there
Just for the context, Pedro II, the last Brazilian emperor, was the son of a Habsburg princess (the sister of Napoleon’s second wife, if I’m not mistaken). That’s why when they needed to populate that region they brought immigrants from Austria, but also Bavaria and Pomerania.

Treze Tilias is a late migration Austrian spot in Brazil. The main group of immigrants came in the 1930s. So it is not hard to find 2nd or 3rd generation deustch speaking people around.
Yeah, the Dutch love Austria and Tirol. Not even when we go to Brazil they leave us alone ;p Just kidding, I love the Netherlands and the Dutch people ♥ Much love from Tirol/Austria
Yeah who's suprised we don't have any of those beautiful mountains. I did manage to do some skiing in Chile an Argentina, great experience editing that is a bit lower on the priority list though
Wasn't that an other city called Cândido Godói, this guy made a video about it ua-cam.com/video/TcpGJ1uepnU/v-deo.html Haven't heard this being a thing in Treze Tílias, it might be though. By the way that guy that made the video in Cândido Godói made some ridiculous claims like the Mengele bullshit but aside from those things the video was alright
That would make it more then 50 characters long so the important part at the end like “Brazil 🇧🇷” would get cut off for many people especially people using mobile. Plus it’s not grammatically correct. I put the city name in the description though. Most of the target audience will have never heard of it though
Well they weren’t the first but yeah I’d agree with that. And “they” can actually refer to a number of different groups of people. From those groups themselves to the elite of the nation at the time.
@@LewisWirth You may know them as emus but in Portuguese it's "emas". Ema is the original term and it has been translated to "emu" in English, for whatever reason. Emas were discovered and named in South America. Then "emu" was used for the Australian bird. Interesting to see how the internet is anglo-centric to this extent.
@@Rasfa Oh I looked it up and it seems like they're not even the same spices just easily confused any perhaps like you said the names are related even if the species aren't. And yeah of course the internet tends to be pretty anglo centric primarily because it's the lingua franca we all use and it takes both enough reach and the right person to point it out to notice these misunderstandings
@@LewisWirth 23 years being Brazilian and I didn't knew emas were endemic... "When the Dutch invasions of Brazil occurred, an emu appeared on the Dutch coat of arms of Rio Grande do Norte (1639)" pretty cool huh.
If you want to understand how they got there, the DW channel made a documentary to commemorate 200 years of German immigration to Brazil. ua-cam.com/video/NxntgmVgJ0Q/v-deo.html&t
Oh that one is new, I watched a number of videos from DW channel they cover many such interesting topics though I find the impersonal official news outlet way of presenting with all the foreign languages being talked over kind of annoying. That's also something I always hated about German TV where it's really common they'd turn down the volume of someone speaking English for example and then speak German over it which would basically shortcut my brain. I hope my video on the other German parts of Santa Catharina that I visited can be done soon.
Since you are Dutch you can visit Holambra in the state of São Paulo. However, I suspect its Dutch heritage is fake. Anyway, they have a big production of tulips.
I went there actually you can find the video on my channel. Also went to some colonies in parana but that’s not done yet. And how much of it is fake well that’s a big topic cause the German and Italian colonies and so on have some of that fake stuff too. Gramado is a good example of this it’s like a theme park beautiful but nothing historical. Did still speak with some people in German even there funny enough. But Holambra is mostly wood and plastic mockup walls which I find a bit sad. The big windmill they have is incredibly well made though it’s not history and actually only build in 2006 (or 2008 don’t remember for sure which one)

0:38 she actually said "toddy", which means chocolate powder. It's a brand but the name can be used interchangibly with the product.
Yeah I couldn’t figure that one out so ended up settling on this 😂
brazil is very different from the country that foreign media shows.
Which gives me an opportunity to show it here
