How German Sounds Compared To Other Languages -- From a German Perspective! | Feli from Germany
Video Overview & Insights
A few months ago, I made this video ▸https://youtu.be/o56u4-ep7aU where I reacted to a viral comedy video about what German sounds like compared to other languages. 😂 At the end of the video, I asked you guys if you'd want me to make a "counterpart" or "response" video where I introduce some nicer sounding German words and your answer was loud and clear! Many of you even provided their favorite German words in the comment section 😇 And even though it took me a while to make this video, here it is! I hope you guys enjoy the "other" perspective!
A few months ago, I made this video ▸https://youtu.be/o56u4-ep7aU where I reacted to a viral comedy video about what German sounds like compared to other languages. 😂And as promised, here is my "counterpart" video that makes German the beautiful language. It's just a joke, of course, but I hope you guys enjoy it! 😊What other words do you find more beautiful in German than in other languages? Let me know in the comments below! 👇

ABOUT ME: Hallo, Servus, and welcome to my channel! My name is Felicia (Feli), I'm 27, and I'm a German living in the USA! I was born and raised in Munich, Germany but have been living in Cincinnati, Ohio off and on since 2016. I first came here for an exchange semester during my undergrad at LMU Munich, then I returned for an internship, and then I got my master's degree in Cincinnati. I was lucky enough to win the Green Card lottery and have been a permanent resident since 2019! In my videos, I talk about cultural differences between America and Germany, things I like and dislike about living here, and other topics I come across in my everyday life in the States. Let me know what YOU would like to hear about in the comments below. DANKE :)
English and French make sense but I feel like these languages would've been better than Italian:
- Russian
- Mandarin
- Turkish
- Modern Hebrew

Feli, hast du vielleicht in Betracht gezogen, dieses Video mit dem ursprünglichen Video zu verbinden und ein Gesamtkunstwerk zu schaffen, bei dem dann hoffentlich JEDEM klar wird, dass es sich um Satire handelt?
Es ist wirklich ärgerlich, wie viele das "Originalvideo" ernst nehmen und darin tatsächlich eine Bestätigung des Stereotyps vom aggressiven Deutsch sehen.
Zumindest die Kommentare lassen darauf schließen.

I have to admit, German does have some quirks that make it sound less soft or smooth compared to some other languages. Its sharp consonants and strong sounds can come across as a bit harsh or blunt at times. However, I don’t think German deserves the reputation of being THE aggressive or harsh language overall. That stereotype largely comes from historical associations, like Hitler’s speeches and how Hollywood often portrays German in movies and sometimes even in comedy shows, like when Elliot Reid in "Scrubs" yells in mock-aggression: "Iss dein Schnitzel, sonst kriegst du keinen Nachtisch!!!"
Unfortunately, most viewers ignore the satirical nature of the "original video" that’s being reacted to here, and instead see it as a confirmation of the existing stereotype. That’s why it’s great that Feli created a satire of the satire - a kind of meta satire!
Idea: Sweden and Germany are chill

@S1LLY_R1NTOO_L0V3RSo from a German perspective, Italian and English women are mustachios.Now I remembered that some time ago I witnessed a scandal between French people and I have to tell you that when the French argue, their language does not sound as melodic as they usually present it to us.
