20. No, no, no, absolutely not true. All our immediate neighbors (dutch, etc.) speak way better English.
26. Depends, and varies extremely between the different regions in Germany.
49. Correction: Germans absorb alcohol. Only nation that will win against them in a drinking contest: Russia
65. Absolutely true. Before they had scanners, they would hammer in the codes of each article, like they were high, and they were at least 20% faster. Now that was an experience!
81. AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAHAHAHAHA! It's true.
95. There is even a joke about that: If you see someone in the US with a Jack Wolfskin jacket, he IS German.
- dagw 13y ago20. Confused me as well. My wife's grandmother was from Germany and she still has a lot of family there. They've come here to visits and we've been over a few times. Many of them (especially those over 60) speak no English at all, and only a couple of the younger ones speak anything that resembles decent English. I also found that outside of the major cities there is no guarantee that the people working in shops, restaurants or hotels speak English.
