Now the air is “fresh” but you are freezing. Then, across the room, someone complains about stale air and requests some frische Luft and OPENS THE WINDOW IN WINTER. It’s snowing and you look out the window and express your gratitude that you aren’t out there anymore. You finally escaped the whipping wind and cold outside. They’re like something in between socks and shoes. House shoes, or slippers, are like normal shoes but softer and comfier. Originally posted by disneymoviesanywhereīubbles! Bubbles everywhere and in everything! Oh, it doesn’t have bubbles? Well let’s mix that juice with some carbonated water. Dipping in and out of one’s mother tongue can make it difficult to learn a new language. The German language is speckled with English words like googeln and tweeten and American music is played on the radio or at events. When Americans travel to Germany, they often expect to be fully immersed in the German language. Nothing knocks the wind out of an American’s sails like being expected to bring their own cake to their birthday party. Germans tend to be more concerned about their privacy and often change their names on social media to something completely unrelated to their actual name. Met a cool German and want to connect with them on social media? Well, GOOD LUCK. In Germany, sarcasm is presented visually, by pulling at the bottom of an eyelid to indicate that everything you say after that is meant in jest. Since sarcasm is a bit of a national pastime and is brought to artistic levels in some circles, it can make it tricky to know when an American is joking. In America, sarcasm is best served subtly. Germans count with their palm faced towards them and start with their thumb. Americans show numbers with their palm faced away from them and start with their pointer finger.

If you’ve seen the movie Inglorious Bastards, you are already on the up-and-up on German counting behaviors. Originally posted by justalittletumblweedĬan you imagine walking past someone at work in America and greeting them with, “Lunch!” But in Germany, this is a common way to greet coworkers during the mid-day hours. In Germany, unless you worked out in them or spilled something on them, there is no shame or stigma attached to wearing clothes again–even multiple days in a row. We also throw into the laundry clothes we’ve worn for only one day. Generally speaking, Americans grow up somewhat fussy about germs and dirt.
We asked former American exchange students to Germany what cultural quirks still give them pause. Some things, however, just never become familiar. You no longer stand in awe of the number of toilet buttons or scoff at people waiting for walking signals when no cars are coming. If you live in a country long enough, which many American exchange students do, you start to become desensitized to what once struck you as odd.
