  • What are our most EMBARRASSING stories and moments in Germany?! I apologize for not editing this video until now but my best friends June, Sophia, and I decided to talk about some of the cringiest, most awkward things we did in Germany while studying abroad. Honestly, as June says in the video, studying abroad comes with being embarrassed 24/7 but those are the times that make the best memories. Hopefully you guys enjoy hearing about our stories! Don’t make these mistakes if you live in Germany!

      @exzses The English language always uses the polite form ("you" 2nd pers. pl. = Ihr) - even to siblings, spouses and children. The non-formal, familiar form would have been the forgotten "thou" (= Du).
      If we copied the English way of adresssing other people, we'd sound like Wallenstein ("Euer Liebden").

    During my time in Germany, as an exchange student, my host family had taken us out to eat. It was one of the first few days I was there. There were several of her family members there so we could all meet each other (like her grandparents, an aunt and uncle, etc.) I remember it was a nice pizza place. We even had wine with our meal. My host parents asked me if I wanted more pizza. Well, I didn’t, so I wanted to tell them no thanks, I’m full. However, I didn’t know the word for full. Usually, when I don’t know a word in German, I just plug in the English word and hope they know what I mean. So, I said, “Nein, danke. Ich bin full.” The entire table started laughing so hard and I had no idea why. Finally, my host sister explained that ‘voll’ (which sounds like ‘full’) means drunk! So, I just told her family , “No, thanks. I’m drunk.” I was so embarrassed I wanted to crawl under the table!

      Where I live, it's totally normal to say "Ich bin voll" if you mean you ate so much you can't eat any more. Though it can also mean drunk. Usually the context helps to make the determination which is meant.

      Silkwesir This was in SW Germany- Bad Kreuznach. My husband, who is from Berlin, explains it as funny because it was obvious I was searching for a German word and made a faux pas by using an English word that sounds like a German word that is totally possible and coincidentally can mean drunk. Adding to that, I was only 15, and I had had a couple of glasses of wine 🍷 I’ve even heard voll being used as full, but it was a great opportunity to have a good laugh! 🤣😂🤣😂

    The grammar is actually a lot easier with the formal "Sie" than the informal "du". I knew a Belgian guy in college and he used the formal "Sie" with everyone. And we would tell him, "Dude, we are friends. There is no need to use "Sie" when you are talking to us.", but he would just always use the formal "Sie" because that way he didn't need to think about the right verb ending.

    I'll never forget my very strict Maths teacher's reaction to an American exchange student falling asleep in his class. The first time it happened, he got really angry and told him to focus. 5 minutes later the poor dude fell asleep again and the teacher kicked him out of class. He was furious. Cursing. The class was shocked. That teacher was very strict but also had a kind of "confused professor" persona, so he didn't even realize that it was an American exchange student. When we told him he was like "I don't care where this imbecile is from!"
    So yeah. Don't fall asleep at a German Gymnasium. Or any school in Germany for that matter.

    I remember some situations from when I was in the U.S. The most embarassing one was when my host mother asked me "Will you sweep?". I heard sleep instead of sweep and it was the middle of the day. So I said "No" and probably made my host family think I was ungrateful and/or lazy.
    I also remember coming back from lunch break late on my first day. So I went to my chemistry class and the teacher told me to "Go find Wilhelm Herrschel". I had never heard of him and so I thought he was probably someone I had to see because of being late. Yeah. Turned out Wilhelm Herrschel is a scientist and my chemistry teacher had set up papers about scientists to arrange the seating order.
    And I also remember being at a fair one summer night and trying to tell my host sister that I was sweating. I thought the e-a-t part was pronounced like the word eat. So my host sister answer was something like "You mean you're sweating. What you just said means you're turning into sugar."
    So dont worry, exchange students in the U.S. make funny/embarassing mistakes as well.
    But looking back now these stories are all rather funny.
    And in my French class in Germany pretty much all of us made funny mistakes. My french teacher had a very vivid way of teaching us never to make these mistakes again but also laugh about them.

So I put piece after piece onto my plate until my host sister asked "What are you doing?" And I was like "I'm taking my pizza". And she was like "Yeah, but no more then 3 or 4 pieces, you'll be full after that".

    Not getting the pronunciation right can lead to really funny moments. On a Sunday evening one of my flat mates- a Spaniard- came back from a trip to Paris and Harri a finish chap was really curious to learn what what Agustin had been doing in Paris. It turns out he spent the entire weekend at his friends flat playing games or so. So he goes “I did not see anything (of Paris)” but with his thick Spanish accent he said as much as “I didn’t drink anything” which was not the response Harri was hoping to get so he goes “no worries. You can fun in Paris without drinks. So what’s it like there? Did you visit any interesting places?” and again Agustin responded “no I didn’t have any drinks”. This kept going until both were getting increasingly annoyed with each other stupid answers and questioning. Neither of them realised that Agustins Spanish accent prevented him from saying what he wanted to say so he kept repeating “vu” - “seen” instead of “bu” - “drunk”. It was hilarious

    Hi Montana,
    maybe you could explain to us Germans which steps you - as a young American - have to take in order to vote in the upcoming election? Where do you have to register? Do you have to register each time a selection is held or is the registration valid for all future elections? Do you have to pay a fee for registration? What do you do when voting (make an X somewhere or press a button or whatever)?
    For comparison: in Germany everybody has to be registered at the local authorities (= Einwohnermeldeamt) anyway. When an election is coming up, you automatically receive a postcard to inform you, at which location you can vote. Since in Germany the elections usually are held on a Sunday, the election locations are often in school houses. Before you can vote, you have to show your ID-Card or Passport to make sure that you are really the person who is registered (e.g. you can not vote more than once in the election). You vote by making an X on the ballot in the circle that belongs to the party which you want to vote for.
    Thanks a lot!

      American voting is very similar to German voting. You register once at 18+ and are always registered. We vote on Tuesdays, usually in a school or a community center, showing your ID. The method depends on the state in which you live. In Alabama, we bubble in next to the candidate you choose.

      Wibke Std True. I didn’t get into such small details, but that’s still a registration when you are registering at your Bürgeramt with your address. Similarly, we do the same thing, except not with an address, but our driver’s license, post office, or even online. The only difference is that we aren’t required to register our address in an official capacity, as is in Germany. We do, however, give our address when we register to vote or get our license. It’s just a matter of which is required first in each country. My husband still votes in Berlin, and I vote in the US. We have two residencies.

      Rachael Kramer but one thing that isn’t good in American elections is that there are only two parties: the democrats and the republicans and that’s pretty bad for voting, because it’s like deciding between „Cholera und Pest“(german saying). It is way outdated because of this two party system and should be updated for present. We in Germany have the system that you can vote two things: one party and one person of a party and a cool thing is You can have as many parties as you want the only thing you have to reach is 5% of the voters or 3 persons being voted in 3 Landkreisen(many areas in Germany like mittelsachsen I think)to get in the Bundestag or Landestag(for each country: saxony, north-Rheinwestfalen, Bavaria, Brandenburg, Berlin, ......)so for now our Bundestag is splittend in 6 Factions. The chancellor is like a president for us and our Präsident is only like a representative from Germany(but he leads the army and declare war if it’s necessary). The chancellor can do many things but is not powerful enough to make a dictatorship or even touch the rules of our country(there can be one way, but it’s hard to explain and you can’t edit/remove our Grundgesetz).
      I think if Americans do the same it would be okay if you are the superpower on the globe. But with the presidents making dumb thinks like Trump we could get a next big war, because the Americans behave themselves(I mean the president/leading party). So would be nice :)

    Well not sure if the game you played in PE is what i have known as 'Brennball', which is quite a bit like Baseball but without using bats and with a football sized ball. It has been a long time since i played it (more than 20 years now) so i am not completely sure how it worked exactly. What i remember is this: There were 2 teams and one was spread out accross the field and had to catch the ball and throw it back, the other team had to try and get their members around the síde of the field. Basically that team had to throw the ball and run to the next safe point one by one while the other team was busy catching the ball and throwing it back. If they finished while a team member was not at the safe point yet that member was 'burned' and out of the game. Thats at least what i remember of it.

    'Schülersanitäter' student medic. In Germany it is a concept that is supported by most schools, some better, some worse. Especially at the Gymnasium you can have well qualified students (If the school really supports it adequately), who start 5th grade with first aid and medic training at least once a month and at least 2 professional medic training courses every year. Reaching 10th grade they could handle almost every emergency at school as well as ambulance medics.

    Looking back on June's cycling story it occurred to me: I'm surprised there are that many bugs left in Germany. The bug dieoff has been positively disturbing. There are only a quarter as many insects as there were in (IIRC) 1970. Car windshields are a lot cleaner after a long drive than they used to be.

    Since I enjoyed listening to your embarrassing stories in Germany so much, it would only be fair if I shared some of mine from when I was an exchange student in the U.S. :D
    So I learned the saying "to scoot over" only by hearing people say it and was probably able to figure out what it meant by context and never actually looked it up. After about 7 months in the U.S., I had a fellow German that I had just met tell me that I had been saying "to screw over" all along. So that was fun.
    Second one, not too embarassing but very tough to handle back then: I was late for my very first class of my exchange year. I was enrolled only on the first day of school, so I missed my first 4 periods anyways but was let loose for my fifth period. My high school was huge though and I just couldn't for the life of me find my classroom and started to get super anxious when I heard the bell ring. I didn't really have a choice though, so when I finally found it (this was also the moment when I learned that American classroom doors can only be opened from inside), I asked, with the thickest German accent you can think of, if this was Chemistry I. Luckily it was, but my first day definitely could have gone a lot smoother :D

    Hallo Montana!
    Ihr 3 girls seid so süß und lustig! Auch wenn es teilweise schwierig ist Euch zu folgen, weil Ihr ja oft durcheinander redet! Aber das ist bei einer so lockeren Truppe junger/hübscher Mädchen ja wohl auch ganz normal. Außerdem kann man sich das Video ja auch gerne mehrmals ansehen um doch noch alles zu verstehen..!
    Übrigens war mir eingefallen, daß Du vor ca. 3 Monaten ein ähnliches Video mit Deiner besten Freundin Ashley (in Deutsch auch "Busenfreundin" genannt) gemacht hattest. Es war schon echt sehr nachlässig von Dir Ashley so lange vor uns (Deiner "erweiterten Familie") zu verheimlichen und sie seither auch nicht mehr zeigen. Sie ist ja geradezu wie Dein Zwilling, was auch andere Viewer schon so geschrieben haben, und ebenso sooo süß! Sie würde auch perfekt in Eure deutsch-amerikanische 3er Truppe passen, was meinst Du?
    Alles Gute für Dich, Deine Familie und Freunde aus Deiner 2. Heimat!!
    P.S.: I did this comment in German to challenge & help you improving your German skills, and because my English couldn't express what I wanted to tell you!
    So, forgive me please!

    Are you sure it was an Autobahn. Wasnt it maybe the Kraftfahrstraße where the limt is 100km/h? Because riding a bike on the Autobahn is pretty much forbidden, especially when you're not a prfessional rider. Someone would have called the police immediately.
    And riding a bike on these other streets is actually pretty normal i think, at least in areas not too close to the city.

    Wait WTF? Soest und Unna? I was born in Unna. The road you most probably took is not a highway, it is a "Landstrasse", which is a long straight strech of road where you are allowed to drive 70-100km/h (43-60mph). Usually going though rural areas with farmland (hence "Land"strasse) to both sides of the road.
