In this video, I teach my American friend all of the random words and phrases that come to my mind! There must be around 30 words I teach her in this video. Let me know what you think in the comments! Some of the words are only said in the north of Germany which is where I studied - in oldenburg and Hamburg. :)
Some things I teach her in the video:
ich habe ein Vogel
moin
lass mich in Ruhe
du nervst mich
bist du nackig?
was geht ab digga
lecker
ich hätte gerne ein Brötchen / Sandwich
Tschüss / hallo / servus / Grüss Gott
alles gut bei dir?
du bist ein Nervensäge
Hi! My name is Lila and I lived in Hamburg (& Oldenburg) Germany for 2.5 years where I studied a masters program and took intensive German classes. I am on youtube to share my love of learning about other cultures: specifically, German culture. I plan to make many videos where I compare American and German culture, including some videos where I will practice German. Please subscribe, like the video, and follow along every week for a new video. :)

@@HiFromHamburg Hamburger was on the mind of people way longer before that fast food became more wellknown. (Hamburg being an independent city for over 800 years to boot.) So Germans have no problem with it. Because Americans are used to it only by the food (?) they find it funny to awkward. Eating Hamburgers came into being in Germany around the 1970s with McDonalds establishing more and more franchises in Germany. I remember that I never went there before my first trip to the US in 1980. I had to survive on the cheap so I went to McD and BK mostly if not to a coffee shop or bakery. Before that I considered McD only suitable for kids to go to. Would be kind of going into a Kindergarten as an adult.

“Digga” has nothing to do with the n-word hahaha, actually it originates from the phrase “Wir sind dicke” (Talking about a good friend - expressing the appreciation of the friendship), “dick”(adjective) means as much as “big” in German. In this case it’s like saying “big love”. Some time in the 90s I guess people made a noun of this adjective, “Dicker”, a couple years later it became “Digga” because it sounds way smoother without the hard “r” in the end and the “ck” 😊

That's not quite right. "Digger" actually came from "Dicker", meaning fat guy - simple as that. It probably wasn't meant as an insult, but that's still what it was derived from. The meaning of being close is what someone knowing only its current usage might deduct as being its origin.

The original food was called Hamburger Steak: minced/ground meat fried. Comparable to Salisbury Steak. Normal people could not afford good meat. That was only served on Sundays if at all. This is a way to serve substandard meat, with much fat and even tendons in, as something palpable. One might even call it Ersatz-meat. Grind it to break it down and mix, then fry to make it resemble good meat. The same reason Gulash has come into being: this way tough meat can be made into an edible dish. Cook it long enough to break it down.

@@Alexis-fv4ej Saarland is a Bundesland (similar to a state of the US) at the German/French border with a weird influence in dialect from the Pfalz (very strong dialect) and French. The Saarland was kind of its own nation for a while after WW II so they have a strong sense of regional pride and preserve their dialect, that's why I know a bit about it, even though I didn't grow up there. My parents and grandparents have influenced me a lot in all sort ofthings, so I am sure your great grandpa has passed some of that curiosity for language on to you.

It is a funny viewing, but proof that it will take a considerable time to get words, their meaning and pronunciation right! I am a native German, but living in England, and still finding it amusing when looking at certain words more critically - especially when comparing a word in American and English?! It is still a gas station in US, although you fill up liquids!! But then the word gasoline is hardly used? In UK it's a petrol station. It will take more than a few Thursday to get the slang right, i learn still new phrases on a daily basis, and that is after living here for over 30 years, still enjoying adding to my vocabulary! Good luck in Hamburg. P.S. Is there any ham in a Hamburger? Ok - and don't tell me what's in the Hot-dog!! ;)

One ‘moin’ is general for anyone, two ‘moins’ moin moin is for people you know. It’s actually plattdeutsch. ‘Na’ or ‘ne’ can also be an informal greeting. ‘Nervensäge’ refers to nerves being ‘sawn’, inferring stressing. A ‘brötchen’ is a bread roll, not a sandwich. In Hamburg (and the north generally) a traditional ‘burger’ would be a ‘frikadelle’. In Berlin it’s a ‘boulette’. ...and they can be ordered ‘im Brötchen’. ;)

One word we use is Klamotte it can mean a bigger stone it can mean the clothes or it stays for an old movie.

actually the word Hamburger might have it's Origins in Hamburg. it is not 100% known were it comes from but for facts there where Hamburger Sandwiches sold in Hamburg wich were very similar to burgers and are the first known use of the word Hamburger for this kind of food. the first official Hamburgers were sold in Amerca but also by a German. So I think it is likely that Hamburgers are actually named after Hamburg and alot of people think this way but there is no real proof. But for those who think it was named after ham.. that is for fact wrong.

I heard this story about how a meat sandwich became its name "Hamburger" in English: at the beginnings of the 1900s the USA was hosting a world trading show. The Americans wanted to offer authentic American food and found that in the working class immigrant culture people would eat relatively big portions of meat when ever they could effort it. But that didn't mean that they actually could afford cutlery. So they created several sandwich based dishes we would today call burger. Apparently those immigrant workers were referred to as "Hamburger" as many of them actually came to New York via the port of Hamburg - and this name was chosen for the dish offered at that trading show. And yes: A German speaker from the city of Hamburg would refer to themselves as a Hamburger - in Germany only kids laugh about it. And then someone tells them that story.

Hamburg- A bit of history about the name meaning: The city name Hamburg is derived from the original Hammaburg, which was built in the 800 century. Already in the 400 century a settlement was mentioned under the name: Treva, at this location (Claudius Ptolemy) The name has its origin in the word hamme (= wooded elevation protruding into the marshland, wood, forest; cf. district Hamm). On the other hand, Germanic * ham- "angle, angular terrain on rivers, bay" (also in Hameln), Old High German hamm "bend, dead river arm, piece of land between ditches, hollow of the knee, back bend"; Old Saxon hamm, Old Frisian hamme, Middle Low German ham, North Frisian Hamm, Haam “Land in a river bend; Headland; put something crooked ”here. Hamburg is therefore “the fortification located at a bend in the river, on a headland”.

We use "Moin" all the time and it's quite strange to hear "Hallo". Even though I know quite a lot of German, I don't really speak and so I started to study it a few months ago. It's good to watch americans talking about German because I can practice English (which I'm also learning) and know more about Germany and German language.

Nervensaege, Nerven-Säge; - saw on my nerves ich habe einen Vogel - "Vogel" same roots as "fowl" Ich bin ein Hamburger - A famous sentence of president Kennedy, when he came to Berlin during the blockade of Berlin: "Ich bin ein Berliner"; while a "Berliner" is a piece of pastry. (Though, in order to avoid misunderstandings the better way to say is "Ich bin Berliner", a phrase like "Ich bin ein Berliner" is absolutely ok, too.) lecker - derived from "lecken" - to lick Messer - actually a combination of two particles; "Mes" and "ser"; in old german it still sounded "metsi-sahs", meaning meal - knife, knife for the meal, while the first deal "metsi" is related to the modern german word "Mast" and the english word "mast" (both about "feeding animals") and the second deal is related to the tribe names "Sachsen" and "Saxon", wich are literally named after their short sword, so meaning "people with the short swords". lass mich .. - let me ..

Actually many Americans do think that the people laughed about Kennedy when he said this, because they being posted in other parts of the country knew about the pastry's name. But in Berlin itself they're called Pfannkuchen". Berliner was originally the abbreviation for "Berliner Ballen" (which the most people don't know about anymore, I think) which does mean Berlinian Balls.

Just googled Hamburger name origin and five out of five theories say it is named after the German city Hamburg (one says after the American city Hamburg, which is unsurprisingly named after the German city Hamburg). Its full name would be either "Hamburg-Style", or "from Hamburg". Most likely the first Hamburger in the way we know it now was served by a German immigrant in 1900 in the city of New Haven. There is an old Hamburgian dish (Rundstück warm) that is a minced beef patty sandwich (either minced beef or Braten). This food was first mentioned roughly 30 years before the Hamburger and when the New Haven hamburger was served it was already widely popular in Hamburg, which used to be and is still it's hotspot. It's not that well known outside of Hamburg

On a German emigrant steam boad on it's way to America, a German gastronome from Hamburg selled pieces of meat in a "Brötchen" (I don't know if there's a fitting translation, but I think you know them). The other emigrants were so fascinated about this delicious and simple snack that some of them spread this basic concept when they arrived in the US. And because the first idea came from this man from Hamburg, they called the snack in memory of him "Hamburger".

I'm from Hamburg and we say "ich bin ein Hamburger" . Also: Nervensäge - nerve saw. Nerven in the meaning of annoy comes is more a short form of "jemanden auf die Nerven gehen" - to go on someone's nerves.

you know, english is a germanic language. the low german dialect, spoken in nothern germany, has a lot in common with old english. so "moin" is of course something like "good morning" even though they say it all the day.

"Moin" is northern german or dutch for "moien dag", which means "have a nice day". Cause we are lazy it became just "moin". Foreigners learning this word often are confused when we say it in the evening, cause they think it means "morgen".^^ "Digga" is the northern german pronounciation of "Dicker" which literally means "fat one". As far as I know the name "hamburger" comes from the fact that the burger in its original form was invented by a man from Hamburg in the USA. He put a steak into a roll and they called it "Hamburger Steak" which later became simply "Hamburger".

In this case Dicker relates to "mit jmd dick sein". So Dicker is "best or very good friend".

Man man man! 🤔 (Moin = you can say all day long! But the right North Germans say "Moin Moin" in the morning (2 times „Moin“) 🙂 If you want to express the greeting e.g. if you haven't seen someone in a long time, or if you are surprised to meet them ... then you can say “Mensch Moin!" 😉 dein Deutsch ist aber sehr gut!!!

Ich bin Hamburgä! We say It like that. When someone asks me "Von wo kommst/bist Du?" I say "Hamburch Diggä!" Listen to some of the old Kiez Legends if you wanna know the One and only Hamburg slang. Die Seemänner und Matrosen haben den hamburgerischen Dialekt eingeführt. Nur noch sehr wenige, meistens die älteren reden so.. Leider.
