obligatory link to How German Sounds Compared to Other Languages
Only fascists talk like that at their conferences. And then it doesn't sound much better in other languages.
There are a hell of a lot of good examples of how terrible our language is, but that's nonsense.
It's a tired joke missing any context or finesse but has some truth to it like most of these kind of stereotypes.
@janus2 @frankyboi, so actually only when a German is pissed off
Oh for sure. Any language sounds intense asf when you're yelling it. Didn't mean to hit some nerves by linking a decade old video... I believe the creators meant no harm and I didn't either :[
If someone who didn't speak English overheard me greeting my cousins, they'd probably think I was trying to start a fight :P
