Regarding the mattresses: Of course, separate mattresses are much better. My wife can only sleep on soft mattresses, while I can only sleep on hard mattresses. These differences even affect our health.
Having the same mattress would mean that at least one of us would never be able to sleep well and would suffer from permanent physical pain due to the wrong mattress.
And sleeping comfort is the most important thing in life, because only with good sleep can the body regenerate and the immune system work well.
We even have a solution for the gap in the middle. A small insert that you put in between. You hardly notice it, and with a topper you certainly don't.
You also barely notice your partner's movements. If the other person has a restless sleep, you can still sleep peacefully. After all, there's no reason why both of you should have a bad night.
So as a couple you have no disadvantages, only advantages.
It's not only the firmness. Mattresses has to support your body to keep the spine in a good relaxing position while sleeping. No matter if you're sleeping on your back or side or belly. This is taken into account by tuning it to your body weight (there are mattresses of differenz firmnesses for different body weights).
Additional heavier people tend to sweat more easy while skinny people tend to freeze more easy. So a mattress for a bigger person should has more breathability while thinner persons might prefer other materials with better insulation.
Further more the shape. Are you more curvy or straight, belly (spare tire in the middle? 😘 ), etc. The mattress got zones of different so e.g. the hips can sink in. Most likely you're different in size (like most couples) in body shape is different and weight. But even if the height would be similar and both of you like the same firmness, the smaller person has a shorter upper body so the mattress needs to be softer /supportive in other areas than for the larger person.
And trust me, you still can cuddle even with two blankets and mattresses.
@@culnaurion don't forget the cleaning of the mattress, 2 smaller covers are much easier to clean then one big cover. You can switch only the part that needs to be washed and thats it.
Also women and men got different comfort temperatures so beeing seperated by a few centimeters while beeing unconsius (sleeping) has its advantages. And you get even closer if you meet on one side before or after sleeping...
The German language is like LEGO, a building block system.
Separate mattresses and blankets are better for sleeping, because the other one always disturbs you, even if you don't realize it. People turn over up to 80 times in their sleep.
At least when your relationship is slowly fading into a "Zweckehe".
@@BigWhoopZH When a gap can't stop you! It´s not the Berlin Wall.
Separate mattresses and duvets for us are essential. My wife weights much less then me so she has a softer mattress, I on the other side need a much harder one because of back pain. With the duvets it's similar. I often don't need a heavy duvet, while my wife often is like a deep freezer and even with high summer temperatures she will have a heavy one. With that heavy duvet I would simply melt away over night, even in winter. And no, we don't have an air-condition because of only a couple of hot days in the summer it's using too much energy.

Imagine you are sharing a mattress. Man 150 kg, woman 50 kg.
The woman has already laid down, the man falls onto his side. As a result, the woman flies to the ceiling.
That can only be an american man with THAT weight!
german engeneering means you make a 70 leter word that totaly describes a law ... and than make a 3 letter shortcut
the point he is trying to make is not get rid of the spaces between the words, it is that you can ivent something and don´t need to think about how you should call it you can just combine words and everybody knows what your invention is doing or what it is made for . Or the exact opposite also works , you can show pople your invention without telling them the name for it and just by seeing what it does there is a high probability that they put the right words together and they just know the name of your invention. for example somebody invents a hook on the wall just for a vacuum cleaner witch is just for cleaning your keaboard. the name would be keybordvaccumhook
Be happy that you don't work in Germany at the "Donaudampfschifffahrtselektrizitätenhauptbetriebswerkbauunterbeamtengesellschaft" ... < you might have to spell that on the phone! ;)
Its the air and the type of fat used that makes ice cream hard or soft.
Also: the most high quality ice cream (italian style, made with coconut fat and less air) will be hard out of the freezer.
The soft ones are nice for a quick snack - but real flavour comes with patience my friends!
Ps: i worked as a quality manager in ice cream factory...and yes, i ate ice cream every day to secure that you have the best quality 🫡 and got paid for it. Best job i ever had. Believe me, take the hard ones, you will also get more for your money (less air = more product).
Pss: this gut und günstig vanille style is one of the many many fake ice creams that dont even use real vanille. They add some dark spots so it looks like they put in real vanille. Read the ingredients. Same with Lagnese (all of their products are fake) though some really taste good and are fine for a quick snack at home, if you want the real deal you deal with the hardness and pay a bit more (the higher cost comes mostly from the better variant of fat and real ingredients, instead of the fake alzernative, they put in. And if u care at all about your health you dont want to eat cheap ice cream that has third grade plant fat in it all the time)
Peace out!
You can't miss what you don't know. That's why you can't relate to this topic. It's not very open-minded.
We Germans think different! :)
In Germany we have words for things that other languages need to explain in one or more sentences
For example kummerspeck means
The body fat that you gain when you have sorrow because for example your boyfriend brake up with you or your dog died etc.
I German one word in english a whole sentence
The words shown in this video where extreme examples and mostly not used in every day life
Well, I think the split mattress is much better than a large one that only has one firmness level. It's much better if everyone can sleep on their preferred mattress. This can also be for health reasons. For example, my mattress is softer than my husband's because of my back problems. Of course, you make compromises in a partnership and marriage, but ultimately we are still individuals who are allowed to have likes and dislikes. So why should I get back pain on a harder mattress and my husband have trouble sleeping on a softer one when there is a super easy solution with the split mattress?!🤷🏻♀️
Greetings from Germany 😊
Totally agree. I'm German and a big and heavy man, my girlfriend is tiny and small. My mattress is hard and made for big weighs, for her too hard. When she sleeps on my side, she will get back problems the next day. The same for me on her side, because her mattress is way too soft for me. That's the reason to have two different matresses in one bed. Of course couples who don't need this can buy bigger mattresses and have one in a bed together.
On top you do not always wobble the other side of the bed when you are turning around in your sleep.
So having 2 separate matresses and duvets means you can join together everytime you like but when it comes to just sleeping you have as much comfort as can be.
The mattresses makes total sense! Just for example, the weight difference between you and your wife/husband. Normally women are just lighter than men. Also we're build different. The weight of a woman is more balanced on the hip while a man's weight is balanced on the chest. So of course you need different mattresses to be better balanced. Also you need different hardness or softness.
For the gap between you can use a topper.
Separate bed sheets and mattresses have some very nice advantages. First you still can be intimate and e.g. snuggle, but you do usually have different sleeping behaviors and scientifically, you should follow your own rhythm while really sleeping.
Second, when changing sheets, the mattress you need to lift is way less heavy (because smaller).
As for words, usually in daily life, those long words are not used. But, you can describe something with it very detailed and everybody understands what's meant even if u see it hear it the first time. The trick is, to take the world from back side like "Treppenstufe" which means step of a stair. So the first part is narrowing down, what topic your talking, namely a stairway, and from there it's a single step of it. So, instead of using 4 words (step of a stair way), you just use a single word.
compound words
in english you would spell a number: one hundred and fifty five (155)
in german: EinHundertFünfUndFünzig (155)
by combining each into one word it is absoluty clear that you mean 155 and not 1 100 50 5
same for normal objects or feelings or what else. sure in english some objects also have the discription as name (car door) and everybody knows what it means, especially in a sentance, but if they stand on their own, is it a car and a house door? well it is silly for sure, in context everbody knows, but as compound, you do never have to question.
I hope this written word vomit makes any sense :D
... and it's efficient ... it allows compact sentences not blown up with präpositions and stuff :)
The separate mattresses are not only good for having mattresses of different hardness for each partner. It also helps you sleep more peacefully! In a large mattress you notice your partner's every movement. This is not the case with separate mattresses! So you can sleep as restlessly as you want and your partner won't notice because the movement isn't transmitted through the gap between the mattresses. And this leads to up to 80 percent better sleep.
Compound words indicate that the expression describes ONE object / structure. Take „cuckoo clock“. In English, it looks like two separate objects. In German, „Kuckucksuhr“ indicates it’s just ONE object, not a cuckoo and a clock.
or a clock that is cuckoo.
Not knowing how to pronounce/ where to break the compoundwords is it's own source of humor. Blumentopferde for example, is it a special kind of horse as in Blumento-Pferde (Pferde are horses) or is it just planting soil for flower pots as in Blumen-Topf-Erde (Blumen = Flowers, Topf = Pot, Erde = earth/soil).
not gonna go into Urinsekt though
Seperate matresses are scientifically profen to be better - the ideal firmness of it depends on your weight, and two partners RARELY have the same weight.
In germany we have a law for almost everything 😂
But to be honest: many of those paragraphs make a lot of sense in daily life.
Ig traffic or silent- hours from 10pm-8am
What do you think of the german word
Bezirksschornsteinfegermeister?
Bezirk= distict
Schornstein feger= chimney sweeper
Meister= title similar to master/ overseer/ Supervisor
Also we need the space in the middle of the bed, in case your daughters boyfriend wants to stay over😂
💯
I agree with everything in the watched video as a German living in Italy with an Italian girlfriend. Many things are actually rather similar in many European countries. 😛
besucherritze well when parents have young kids that have bad dreams they sometime come to visit there parents and sleep with them....
It's not exactly just Written together... There are also fugue elements that connect these words and here the grammar of the sentence is included in the word
Hochzeitsfeier = wedding celebrations
But:
Hochzeit s Feier = Wedding s Celebration
The s is genetiv (grammar) the s is in English in this case "of" so: Hochzeitsfeier = Celebration of Wedding
It's not just weddingcelebration
So you can say 1 wort instead of a Entire sentence including grammar - everything is in the one word
Richtungswechsel = change of direction
But literally directionchange
There are several fugue elements - as long as they are placed correctly, every invented word will be understood.
It is therefore unimportant whether you know the exact name of a thing or simply attribute properties to the object
It's hard to see the genius in it - but it shortens sentences and simplifies descriptions enormously.
With such "invented words" you can talk in general terms without ever knowing a technical term - it is the opportunity to explain very complex topics in a child's play
I love your reactions! :) Regarding ice cream: regardless of the distinction you might make in your home country, in Germany we don't care! It's all EIS. I don't know anyone who distinguishes it like it's been said in the video - except maybe advertisement use "Gelato" or "American Icecream", but to be honest, nobody cares! It's just advertisimement in an effort to make the product better than it might be. We germans do love foreign names, it sounds all the more important than the pure german version. But really, germans usually do not know any difference in ice cream style at all - with the exception of this: water ice vs milk ice vs sorbet. That's about it. Gelato is just the italian word for icecream, that's how we see it, no difference for us. "American Icecream" is not a style for us, it's just an advertisement of the companys origin to sound more important.
Honestly, I've been surprised german windows haven't been mentioned in the original video ;)
8:30 Regarding „Ben and Jerry‘s“ ice cream: The recipe of the ice cream is pretty much the American one, but it is a licensed product, and production by the license owner over here… follows their German production processes, with the additional air. It is harder than German ice cream, but in my opinion somewhere in between German and American levels, even though significantly closer to the German ones. Other commenters complaining about „more air, less product!!!“ seem to be unusually critical here, which makes me wonder what they think about the American practice of „more ice chunks than lemonade / soda“…
I was not complaining about "Ben and Jerry's" which is pretty dense for ice cream in Germany, but about Gut & Günstig (and many other brands) which actually contains 50% air. If I found the correct numbers (not sure) "Ben & Jerry's" contains only 23% air.
so you don't want separate mattresses but are fine with separating these poor words? 😄
These ultra long German compound words are most often found in legislative texts and ordinances only and Germans make fun of this "language feature" (Sprachmerkmal) themselves.
If common people and mere mortals "make up" new words like this or describe new concepts -- or have to write down such monstrosities -- they often use hyphenation to tell the relevant bits apart, but to also make clear it is a *single concept* and these words *do belong together* to avoid misconceptions. Something that may happen in English and for non native speakers in particular.
German grammar is also very flexible, thus a compound word can always be written with explicit hyphenation / dashes between words / compounds like "Waschmittel-Verpackung" (detergent package, literally: "washing substance package"). In English it's not instantly clear if the focus of "substance" in this concept should be on the "washing substance" or the "substance package". It needs a separate word "detergent" to describe a substance suitable to wash things.
This is also a general rule to write accessible text called "Simple German" to be used by administrations to help people with i.e. dyslexia and other reading disabilities.
Many couples doesn't have the same weight and when you get older you need a good mattress for your back anyway, so one won't fit both. The type of mattress you need can also change over time, so it's clever to just have to buy one instead of two, for a good one is pretty expensive. The gap in between must be a joke. It's like a couch with two pads. Nobody can get stuck there wtf xD And I don't get how the number of matresses can effect what you do or how you feel in bed.
Split mattresses and covers are much better for a good, firm, sleep and therefore healthier. Each partner can have a hardness that is correct for their weight and style of sleeping (side sleeper, back sleeper etc.). When you have one hardness for both, at least one of the two will sleep on the wrong hardness level, which will contribute towards chronic back pain and muscosceletal issues. You two won't know, you're still very young 🙂
And separate covers are just a no brainer to me. Couples can actually start to hate one another because of fights over the cover and tugging back and forth. Plus again, one might like it cooler than the other. Also, separate mattresses and covers will greatly reduce transfers of movements. So if one moves around a lot, they don't wake up and disturb the other in their sleep. And if one has get up to the bathroom, or because their work starts earlier, it's easier to manage that without waking the partner up (even briefly, so they might not even remember it happened, but it's still enough to disturb a sleep cycle and reduce rest quality).
I prefer to have two blankets, because I hate it, if she taking/stealing the whole blanket (unconsciously) while sleeping and I ending up without blanket the rest of the night and don't want to wake her by pulling it back. So two blankets makes sense.
Two separate mattresses stringed togehter makes sense too, because two different weight class need two different hardness grades on mattress and of course, no one is waking up the other one because of self-rolling/moving and bouncing the mattress.
the eierschalensollbruchstellenverursacher in fact is a joke
nearly nobody has those
On the subject of "separate mattresses": as many others have already written, separate mattresses mean more restful, healthier and trouble-free sleep for both partners. But what's more: many Germans sleep with the window open even in winter when the temperature is below zero - separate comforters help to ensure that nobody catches a cold because their partner is completely curled up and you're practically "lying in the open" ^^
On the subject of "compound words": it is so much easier and also more logical to describe things in ONE word than in a whole sentence! What I personally love about compound words: anyone can invent their own words to describe something at any time - and EVERYONE can understand these words! You don't have to create a completely NEW word, just string existing words together... Example: chair cussion - two words in English, one in German: Stuhlkissen (Stuhl = chair, Kissen = cussion - it couldn't be simpler or more logical ^^)
But the compound words mentioned in the video are also really bad examples - we call such words "Beamtendeutsch" (german language used only by civil servants) because they are not used at all in everyday life (except in authorities etc.)...
the ice thing is well we mix in more air its a trick to get more money for less mass but well it also gets softer you get 2 content sices on the ice cream pack usually its like about a liter for 500 gramms like that the old haagen daz was like 500 ml and 420 gramms
sanskrit and the sandhi rules create really long stuff and that is way harder to understand than german, where the rules are quite simple. :)
bed talk well the matreses are great one can have softer the other harder ones wich results in better health for both and 2 comforters well when its cold in winter you are realy happy to have an own one allso your wife ( usually its her that freezes ;) can have the thick winter comforter a month earlyer from you so better sleep too ... and haehehehe well there are things that can be done without comforter at all and with lights on ;)
I see no difference in Polizeiauto, or Polizeistation
if the englisch translation is police car and police station - the German way is better as writing system because you always see where a connection to a word ends. while in other languages there could be 8 words written seperate by a space but in solo the words make no sense and you have to read alll 8 as one to get the context right anyway
Exactly. I don't get why English speakers are always shocked by German compound words, when they actually do the same. The only difference: they put a space between the words and we don't. Yes, there are extreme examples, but most of the time these are just made up words.
Space between words is just waste,you guessed it,space.
Watch "spaghetti Eis" or "easy German- Biergarten" very interesting 😮 for you maybe 🤔
10:25 Having two comforters has several advantages. Just as an example, my girlfriend and I each have a comforter. She has a thicker one because she gets cold more easily. I only have a very thin one because I get too warm very quickly. So everyone can sleep to their own taste? And yet she's always in my arms when I go to sleep! No problem at all!
Cheap ice cream uses vegetable oils and stays much softer than cream. Then air does make it softer also. Both signs of cheap ice cream. That "günstig" ice cream definitively is cheap and I would never buy that brand, after everything I bought from it was bad.

Having two mattresses allows finding the most comfortable back position. Using a topper covers both mattresses and frames, getting the best of both worlds. Couples often need personalized mattresses because of different body types (height and weight). Slatted frames with curved slats are common in Germany, but the curvature is often incorrect in a single frame. With age comes understanding, and one should personally experience something before passing judgment on it.
Regarding compound words, the relationship between words is usually clear in German, which is significantly more precise than English. As an experienced technical translator for over 35 years, I know that in English, adding words together can be ambiguous, requiring context to derive the relationship. For example, “black forest” can mean either the German region (Schwarzwald) or a dark forest (schwarzer Wald). A “Brennstoffzelle” (one word) refers to a specialized electrochemical device that converts chemical energy to electrical energy. In contrast, “Brennstoff-Zelle” (hyphenated) simply means a cell or container holding fuel, without a specific technical meaning. Nevertheless, excessive use of long compounds is also considered poor style in German.
Once you have two duvets,you'll never go back.
Love your videos! It's very enjoyable to see you being so interactive during your reactions =D
Regarding different mattresses: Often different people are more comfortable with different softness levels, especially when they are quite different in weight. The husband might be taller and heavier than the wife, so in a soft mattress which would be comfortable for the wife, the husband would "sink in", and a harder mattress which would be comfortable for the husband would be too hard for the wife. Whatever preference somebody has, if you use separate mattresses, everybody can choose the most comfortable option for them.
Regarding compound words: The long words shown in the video are a little bit misleading. While they technically exist in the German language, they are pretty much irrevelant in everyday life. If you look at a German article or German book, the average length of words will look quite similar to an English article or English book. The advantage of compound words is just that you can use already existing words, put them together and create a new word instead of having to come up with a completely new word. Here are some examples:
Handschuh (hand shoe) -> glove
Kühlschrank (cool cupboard) -> refrigerator
etc.
You can also easily come up with words for specific feelings that don't have their own word in other languages like English. That's why English speakers use some German compound words, because there doesn't exist an equivalent English word. For example "Wanderlust" (hike pleasure) which describes a strong desire to travel. Or "Schadenfreude" (damage joy) which describes the joy you experience witnessing the troubles / pain / suffering / humiliation of other people (just think of those "funny" youtube compilations of people slipping / falling etc.).
The compound words make sense: Handbag is one thing, so one word. Handbag handle is two words in English, but one in German: Handtaschenhenkel. In fact in spoken language there is not a big difference in the languages, as in natural conversation you would not hear the pause in between the english word(s). Because of language rules the english version would not be possible in German, making the "handbag" an adjective to the" handle", but handbag is a noun. "The handle of the handbag" would be a possible construction, but much too long.
Nobody normally uses the mega long words....
Lol, do their fridges not work.... 🤣
It's not like a duvet is an "obstacle" to anything. Separate mattresses isn't a standard, some people prefer it, others don't. It's down to personal preference.
The Rindfleischetikettierungsüberwachungsaufgabenübertragunsgesetz doesn't exist any more. But we still have plenty of other compound words.
If combined words are too long, they are normally interrupted by a hyphen: Wohnstädtenförderungsgesetz --> Wohnstädten-Förderungsgesetz (I don't know if this word makes sense)
Please note: The most important part of the compound word is always at the end. "Bundesausbildungsförderungsgesetz" (Federal Training Assistance Law) is a law that assists the training, made by the Federal Government.
(That's normal in German. One example: A German speaker has been talking for quite a while, but the simultaneous translator is still silent. Why is that? He is waiting for the most important thing in the infinite long sentence of the speaker, the verb, which always comes at the end of the sentence in German. And German sentences are long!)
For the long words. They aren't always that long and the shown example was just the worst and longest official word.
If you got wealthy and gained some weight, in German you got a "Wohlstandsbauch" which translates like "wellbeing status belly" or '"prosperity belly". And if the word got too long or hard to read, you're still free to insert a hyphen.
Rindfleischetikettierungsüberwachungsaufgabenübertragungsgesetz becomes Rindfleischetikettierungs-Überwachungsaufgaben-Übertragungs-Gesetz
Thank you for your nice Videos! Greetings from Germany, City of Recklinghausen, Westfalia ❣️🙏🍀
imagine a couple, he has 140 kg she has 70 kg. Two mattresses aren't bad in such a combination ... ;-) ... on a single mattress she will be catapulted out of her bed* whenever he turns his mass around. ;-)
* works with every king sized water bed
Compound words: usually they are not that long. But they are handy - you don't need to learn that much words. What is a shoe for the hand? -> Handshoe ... in English you have to learn a new word: "glove"
Also, concerning the split mattresses: weight. My wife and i had largely different weights, so we needed different mattresses. Otherwise my wife would have been in trouble - choose one: sleep on wht feels like stone, or roll over into the ditch and onto the husband (not that I minded, of course...). Seperate matresses: no problem whatsoever.
However, we had just one duvet. Oversized, of course, so it had been nearly impossible to "steal" the duvet from the SO. ;)
Children, calm down! The cover thing absolutely depends on preference, but if your partner wants seperate covers and you don't, you're 100% the thief. And man, are you overreacting. I get, that this is a video about Germany, so it's understandable that you might assume there to be an armed border guard between mattresses, but trust me when I say, that you can still cross over for all kinds of fun activities and you won't even notice. Mattresses that fit you are one of the most important factors for healthy sleep. So if you figure out that your partner has a different requirement or that their movement makes you feel grumpy and tired in the morning, you get a divorce? There are plenty of studies showing that seperate mattresses can lead to much lower stress levels. Yet you be like: "Why even get married?! Why not move to different planets, while we're at it...?"
For compound words you have say with confidence and convey that it's one thing you are talking about.
It can feel like babbling random words otherwise. It is the same for screw driver (I think).
Hahahahaha.
I agree with the long words, they're second nature to me since I'm German, but sometimes it gets a bit too wild.
About the mattresses, we have connected beds and mattresses, it's just that having them separate allows for finer adjustment for sleeping quality due to mattress thickness, or texture, etc.
You miss out on cuddling in the middle but I don't think the gap has ever stopped anyone from sleeping WITH one another.
Separate mattresses or separate comforters are insane to me.
I guess they are fine once you enter into the boring, sexless part of a marriage, where whining and moaning about the mattress being 0.7% too hard becomes more important than engaging with your partner without having to play overlap-the-comforters and who's-limb-is-now-down-the-split every night.
So you usually take two mattresses as a couple for different reasons, first of all probably the most important reason, health, since in most cases the partners do not have the same stature, weight and sleeping habits, different hard mattresses are needed for each other .
Another reason is that the structure of mattresses is not suitable for supporting two people in the long term. As an example, a mattress with hardness H2 is recommended from around 80kg to around 110kg. But if you add the weight of both people together, you'll be over that. In addition, a single mattress is likely to wear towards the middle extremely quickly, meaning it can no longer properly support the back, which can lead to back pain.
Most german 'icecream' is not allowed to be called icecream. thats because it is made out of ingredience which aren't in real icecream.
so the most famous like the 'cremissimo' from langnese brand ist just a bunch of palmfat, flavor and beaten until creamy by nitrogen. so 1 liter of cremissimo ist just around 650 grams of cheap fat and stuff, blown up to fill the box. so it's just a fraud.
thats the reason, why its more soften direkt out of the fridge
Its funny to think, with ONE mattress you are closer than a couple! You use seperate clothes, towels, cutlery, chairs, cushions...Seperate mattresses are sooo much healthier, for your back, legs, a restful sleep.... and the best for a happy relationship is health! and there are mattress gap fillers, easy and cheap to buy!
The great thing about German compound nouns - at least in my opinion - is not that they exist. They exist in other languages too. But that you can make them up on the fly, and they are immediately "valid". While with (most) other languages, it takes time and a consensus of many people to fix it in language.
I could NEVER sleep with only one duvet and mattress, feeling every movement of my wife.
I think you only can see the smartness behind these things, when you dive deeper into our culture and experience the circumstances, that lead us to the things like the seperated matresses. And in terms of our language....we are not in a hurry to explain something so we don't want to explain thing fast. We want them to be understood so it's easier for another person to understand something new, when you explain or describe it with words already known. To be fair, some words are quite extreme in terms of size and even for us pretty hard to read but as soon as we get the point of it, we know the exact thing it describes. So again, it's not about speed or time, it's about quality of description.
To be honest, even if you play by the book, the zipper merge is still not understood by a lot of Germans as well. If I overtake on the left hand side and merge at the end I sometimes get honked by others or even won’t get let in because they think I should have merged way earlier…
Germans are stupid 😂
While combined words are common in German language, the percentage of very long words is very low.
We sleep in very cold rooms, so we need to be able to tug in. If you lie back to back you'll get a cool draft between you.
As for the madrasses, they are way morea easy to cary up and down stairs.

Oh well, shared duvets or seperate ones is not so strict i would say. We like to use a very big one, at least 2,2 by 2 metres. Then it is wide enough for all movements. and we always hated gaps, when we had a hotel room e.g. 😂 separating words is not too bad, but what happens if there is a page break between those words - then you might misunderstand, right?
Why not seperated sheets and matrasses?
You want to sleep and this in a healthy and undistracting way.
Also if you want to cuddle or more, there are big enough sheets. With my Ex I used her or mine sheet if we where in the mood.
Where is the problem?
We have beds with seperate matresses, but they are not common, elder people mostly have them. We also have doublebeds with only one matress, we call them french bed. I have one like this. Greetings from Germany
I hope that you found out allready, that for "lovesharing" you just both lift your sheets and start that process ;D

to explain this: i prefere a harder matress, my wife preferes a softer one. i cant slep with her level of softness because i will wake up with backpain. so its better to separate our matresses. for the sheets... its the same. she sleeps better with a thicker sheet, i prefer a thinner one for summer and a thicker one for winter, mostly because she has night clothing and i sleep in underwear. if we want something to share we have a sheet way bigger than the normal ones like a overlayer which we can use together
why do we Germans like to use this endless chainwords? because why make it simple ;)
We don't leave any space in between the words so the wind can't get in. Helps with insulation and thus the letters don't get cold! 😉
No bro, seperat the matrazen, its healthier, you live longer, better and happier.
Kommentar für den Algorithmus. And German long words are spelleable in one breath. Donaudampfschifffahrtskapitänsmütze
Ich habe keinen Eierschalensollbruchstellenverursacher. Aber ich habe ein Eierschalensollbruchstellenverursachungsersatzgerät.
I live in germany and I put my spoon under hot water first to make it even easier 😅
the genius thing about compound words is that everybody can use them to create words for a specific thing that everybody can understand. the length of the words is not the point and may be called a side effect or downside.
i could explain that "i have a tool that will make an intended breaking point on the shell of an egg" or i could just say "i have an eierschalensollbruchstellenverursacher" and everybody can picture what it does, without any further explanation. thats typically the beauty of compound words - imo
there are better examples for this of course. "heimweh" or "fernweh" for example
also compound words are fun, i dont know how many words me and my freinds invented in the course of our lives, just because we can
The answer in't the air or fat, it's just the ac😂
A separate matress is a must and it can save your marriage 😂
yes, split mattresses are great for sleeping. but annoying af when having sex. one of your extremities slips into the crack all the time
since you all love german compound words. we even have a name for the crack. "Besucherritze" which translates to visitors crack. because when your little childen come sleeping in the parents bed they also slip into the crack xD
Are you father and daughter?
When it comes to the ice cream, they actually got it wrong. It is not engineered to be nice and soft. It is engineered to be cheap for the manufacturer. In Germany all low quality ice creams are this soft because they contain more air than ice cream normally does and less actual product. This makes producing it much cheaper as air costs nothing. Of cause manufacturers are smart and market it as extra creamy and put it in luxurious looking packages. We also have ice cream that is not American style and harder, but that is usually not cheap. Also, if they think Gut & Günstig ice cream is better than what they bought in America, the ice cream they bought in America must have been awful.
As a rule of thumb, you can compare the volume (litres) and weight (grams) information on the packaging. The further apart they are, the more air there is. If I remember correctly, "gut und günstig" had 500g per 1000ml. For comparision: pure Milk has 1030g per 1000ml. Of course you want *some* air in your ice :D
@Rakasch Yes you are right, it has only 500g per 1000 ml. The difference to Häagen Dasz for example is quite shocking: Häagen Dasz has over 800g per 1000 ml.
About beds: absolute BS, we use all the things similar to americans 😂 The elderly may use the old bed types ;)
What nonsense! We have beds with separate mattresses (which by no means only "old people" use!), but also French beds with only one mattress and Chinese futons where you almost sleep on the floor... Not very helpful for understanding if you let go of such false comments... *shaking the head*
@@zasou571 We are young people and at our neighbourhood the elderly use such beds, so it is indeed true! But your statement is false about mine. You can have an other opinion indeed ;)
