What even is ich_iel?
Me_irl but german.
It’s better because every post with an English word gets
SPRICH DEUTSCH DU HURENSOHN
as a response
And yet when I try to SPRICH DEUTCH to actual live Germans they give me a pitying look and firmly reply in perfect English
perfect English
Such a thing does not exist in Germany.
I always try to decipher their memes because they look funny.
Whenever I can figure one out through context I feel like a genius
Or when you try to read a word aloud and realize it’s basically the same as the English word with 50% more consonents.
That’s the meme. They translate English expressions, names and brands into German 1:1, disregarding any standing idioms and available translations. Hard to read even as a German native. Struggling to figure out what to OP meant is like 90% of the fun.
Haha, I remember trying to tell a German colleague that another colleague was ‘ingverklerten’ because he had red hair, apparently the German word for ginger is not used to represent colour. Almost as popular as our attempt to call someone a ‘glockenende’ when they had been foolish. Sounds like I should look into ich_iel a bit.
What you should tell your German colleague about the ginger is “Wo das Dach rostig ist, ist der Keller feucht.”
But also; rusty crotch, pubes like 13A fuse wire
Fun fact: pubes have the same color as someone’s eyebrows.
Tu peux apprendre les deux ! Or join us on !rance@jlai.lu. Sure we are not as active as !ich_iel@feddit.org but maybe with your help we will improve (^_^)
Learning French in the US is such a let down. Spanish is the unofficial second national language and German has the best memes.
I studied German in high school but I don’t remember any of it. I like to pretend that ich_iel is just using made up nonsense words, like the Swedish Chef muppet.

We’re more into dumb sturgeon puns.
And ramen noodle hair, apparently?
German jokes are the wurst.
Fr fr these guys look like some top tier shit posters.
I see the memes and laugh because I imagine a German person seeing it and laughing at it.
I speak German and I can confirm, top-tier stuff.
French is so difficult to learn because of the pronunciation. Spanish is much easier to learn in comparison. I don’t get why all school in Germany prefer French as third language before Spanish.

That means you should start /c/moi_dlvv
Tbh I’ve kind of forgetten what little French I managed to learn earlier, so this wouldn’t work for me either
I’m in the same boat with German sadly. Trying to relearn some though. Ich habe fast alles vorgessen.
Deutsch vergeht, die MaiMais bleiben.
Geben sie mir senf und sauerkraut zu dem bratwurst 😎
Ich bin nicht eine Kartofel !
Boah, Bayern muss echt an Österreich angeschlossen werden.
Wir nehmen’se gern, vastehn tu ma uns, und se wissen wie ma Bier trinkt.
For me it’s Dutch. The Dutch own late night Lemmy for me and I want to know what I’m missing.
I’ve picked up on Overleden though :(
Dutch looks like someone got really drunk and tried to combine English and German.
No umlauts, just keep adding vowels and it’s more or less done isn’t it?
