No. We Germans are never angry when an American or English person says it the way they read it or know it. We get angry when you tell us we're pronouncing it wrong.
Thought the same and it crossed my mind, that Thai might pronounce the alphabet the same as German does, whilst French and English do it completely different. That's why she gets it quite right, when she doesn't go down the "englis route"
In Germany we pronounce the letter 'V' when it is just the letter as 'Fau' (a bit like 'cow' when you replace the 'C' with an 'F'). When it comes to the 'V' being used in words, it depends on where in the word the 'v' is placed and what letters surround it: At the beginning of the word it is usually pronounced similar to an 'F', just a bit more pronounced, like you dig your upper teeth into the inside of your lower lip a bit more when making the letter. In the middle of the word in can vary a bit, but often it is pronounced closer to the english way to pronounce 'v', like in 'Nivea'.
Sujy's prounciation of Schwarzkopf is just too cute... Shwashkop XD Okay, I get, there are just too many consonants and not enough vowels in the word 😂
Jägermeister was originally a wine and spirits dealer. Until the company came up with the idea of producing its own alcoholic drink. A secret recipe of herbs is used for this purpose. In Germany, Jägermeister was considered a drink for old people, but in the US, Jägermeister became known among young people. This wave is coming back to Germany.
Beiersdorf is the company behind Nivea. And yes, Beiersdorf is a surname and the name of a place (somewhere in Saxony). Ancestors of the founder might've been from there.
The Volkswagen brand was founded just a few years before the war. The only vehicle was the Beetle, however, only the pre-series were built. But then the war started and VW switched to war production. VW built military Kübelwagen, the technology largely corresponded to the Beetle. After the war, the English allowed Beetle production to resume. For this purpose, some Kübelwagens were converted into Beetles. The oldest running VW Beetle in Germany was registered as the VW Kübelwagen and later officially converted by VW as a Beetle.
There are lots of German brands in the US, which most of the people there don't know are German. There's even this list on Wikipedia: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_companies_of_Germany
"Howdy Audi!" -- I'll think of that next time an Audi sticks to the rear bumper of my VW when I drive in the left lane and am already over the speed limit. I would LOVE to let those people pass and risk their licenses, but there are some two-lane highways in Germany, and if the right lane is full of trucks, I can't just swerve back. And, yes, these stretches of Autobahn HAVE speed limits, for a reason. "Mercedes Benz" -- Janis Joplin (American): "Dear God, won't you buy me a Mercedes Benz". Many years later, Klaus Lage (German): "Lieber Gott, bitte kauf mir einen Mercedes Benz". I think it's worth it listening to both songs. "Birkenstock" -- No, I contradict Feli in that point. That brand, even in Germany, is not very well known anymore, except among some health-aware people from the upper middle class, I'd like to say. They had their big time in the 1980s and maybe early 90s, but why should I wear sandals when I have my beloved adidas sneakers? "Jägermeister" -- Please avoid drinking that! Yes, it's a herbal liquor, but it tastes ugly and makes you drunk very, very fast. However, if you feel somewhat bad in your stomach, a shot of Jäger can be helpful. "Nivea" -- They have the classic skin care products, and what I like about them, they use little to no perfume on their stuff. I like their shaving foam because I shave my face the "traditional" way. (What Feli forgot: "Nivea" is also somewhat derived from Latin, because "nix", genitive "nivis" means "snow", so "Nivea" means "snow white", which really is its color.) Again, I enjoyed your reactions very much. You always give me a new perspective on videos I watched a long time ago, many thanks for that!
Trägst du deine Sneaker in der Wohnung? Die meisten die ich kenne, die Birkenstock bzw. Artverwandte Schuhe tragen arbeiten im medizinischen Bereich bzw. tragen sie ganz einfach zuhause. Draußen würde ich die auch nicht anziehen, da kommen mir nicht einmal Sandalen an die Flossen.

she have the big cointainer of Nivea. At this day usaly they sell just a samll container, because it is so rich. We have hand down the big container mostly to the next generation 😂 Lufthansa do well at the moment, there have a historical hight after covid ($3,2 Billion profit in 2023)
- 06:01 - Well, Audi and BMW are far from being reliable cars these days. Just like all the other German brands with perhaps the exception of Porsche. If you ask me who our worst car manufacturer is, then I'd probably say Opel (who belong to Stellantis)

I had a lot of fun watching your video. But I have to add one little thing: Here in Germany we have a nickname for the Haribo Gold Bears that isn't nice at all, but is completely accurate: Tooth-Plompen-Killer. I know it's not nice at all, but only our dentists know how many blunders these golden bears have already given them work. So be a little careful when enjoying these gold bears.

So we have a German bathroom apparently! :)
Beiersdorf not only produces Nivea, but also wound plasters (Wundpflaster)..🤓

Thats why we know that they don't care.
Interesting that the tai pronounciation often sounded more german than the english or french pronounciations

In our next reaction Sujy sang in Thai after the video. You will be able to see how Thai sound! :)
Adidas and Puma both started in the same city Herzogenaurach... 🤓 Which makes sense, because they were brothers..😂
You can buy haribo on every Seven or Family mart in Thailand. I've seen it also at Tops
Thank! I will check next time.

Birkenstock is mostly a manufacturer of health shoes and sandals...🤓 It was sold to french company LVMH (Louis Vuitton, Moët, Hennessey) in 2021...
Suji got german pronunciation of most brands right from the start.👍🤘 Her first idea was mostly the right one...

It was founded and is still located in Hamburg, not Saxony. Named after Paul Carl Beiersdorf, who was born in Neuruppin, Brandenburg.

Very nice video, thank you!
Sujy pronounces it way better than I could ever say Thai names; that's for sure.
You both are a very lovely couple. Its allways interesting and funny.

My wife just recently bought the large Nivea Creme (400ml) ... price was 3,19€ ... just random information! :)
Yeah, it's surely more expensive here. Everything imported is.
V is not the same as W 😅 She already said Vw and you could clearly hear the difference.

Ferdinand Porsche wurde in Vratislavice nad Nisou
