Moment Prince Charles speaks German at Embassy event in Berlin
Рет қаралды 647,195
5 жыл бұрынThe heir to the throne delivered a speech at the British Ambassador's residence in the country's capital, speaking part of the address in their native tongue. Charles made reference to his new grandson as he spoke of how he hopes the bond between Britain and Germany will remain close in a nod to Britain's departure from the EU. Addressing a crowd at an event at the British Ambassador's residence to celebrate the Queen's birthday, he said in German: 'It is also a particular pleasure to be back in Berlin once again - especially as the grandfather of a brand new grandson.' Also in German he added: 'Today, we are much more than just neighbors. We are friends and natural partners. 'Entwined by mutual experiences, mutual interests and mutual values and our futures are deeply entwined.' Prince Charles is not fluent in German, although his father, Prince Philip, the Duke of Edinburgh, is said to be proficient in the language.

@@gordonsmith8899 I’m talking about culture, not nationality. It is clear that German culture was prevalent in Elizabeth and Philip’s royal circles. Elizabeth’s uncle was a Nazi sympathizer and Philip had Nazi sisters. And Victoria wasn’t so very long ago. The Saxe-Coburg-Gotha name stayed until 1917, and she and Albert spoke German with their children. Prussian/German nationalism survived in Royal circles all the way until Philip and Elizabeth, so culturally the British Royal family has been quite German until very recently. Charles was perhaps the first to have close to zero interaction with german affinities in the family.

He speaks French because for centuries French was the official court language of Britain and because it was for all of Europe the language of diplomacy. He speaks German because the entire house of Windsor are expected to learn it due to their German heritage. Though more of them speak French and speak it better than they speak German. The senior royals are expected to know both. Charles also speaks some Welsh and some Scottish Gaelic. He and the Queen and presumably William can all speak greetings and pay compliments in dozens of languages besides those.

(That being said, not every Bavarian actually has a heavy accent. Especially in urban areas, most Bavarians tend to speak pretty passable Standard German.) There are also a lot of cultural differences between different parts of Germany and Bavaria tends to be what I would call overly proud of its own cultural identity (that includes lederhosen, dirndl, wheat beer, weisswurst and a relatively conservative socio-political attitude steeped in Catholocism) which is another reason why people like to make jokes about Bavarian secession and the like.

Nah, Prince Charles doesn't really speak German. He was just reading out a few prepared sentences in the language so as to be polite, seeing that he was guest of honour at this function in Berlin. It's pretty that obvious he is unaccustomed to the language and was struggling slightly. By contrast the late Prince Philip, Prince Charle's father, actually could speak German very fluently - there is old footage of his giving televised interviews in the language! (In fact he was highly fluent in French too.)

I agree that the Royal family are not allowed to get mixed up in politics, but we're not in normal times. The majority of Mps who are supposed to represent us have turned on the electorate in not delivering our departure from the EU. We are essentially at present in a dictatorship. When one of the greatest democratic nations turn their backs on democracy and one of its elite s such has the P of Wales wades in about some special connection with Germany, who are the architects of the EU, then it spells disaster.

Even "Mountbatten" was an artificial translation of the German "Battenberg". When that became too well-known, the label "Windsor" was - again artificially - created. The English (= Anglo-Saxon = Angel-Sachsen) nation and their Royal family may like it or not - they are so German as one can possibly be. Yes, there are also some - minor - Celtic and North Germanic roots (as have the Germans themselves, by the way), but that does not change that big fact. It was a tragedy that war destroyed the old, strong ties between Germany and England, because if they had joined forces, there could have potentially evolved something like the United Germanic States, including also Scandinavia, the Netherlands, Benelux, Switzerland and Austria: an unbelievably advanced superpower. That would have been far better than seeing nowadays all of these originally Germanic little nations degenerating into dumb and dull rainbow areas which lose their culture to foreign invaders.

Prince Charles carries out the Monarchy's role well. The UK's Government is currently unstable and unable to implement any policies (until the Prime Minister changes and a new one rebuilds a working Cabinet); but the continuity of the state is maintained by the Queen and the Prince. The Foreign Office provided him with the right words to convey this and to remind us that after Brexit life will continue as will the British-German relationship. Charles's German is fine: he sounds the same as any Briton with an 'RP' English speaking voice, when they have learned some German and know how to speak it.
