Knowing the German pronunciation makes it not as funny. But seeing "extra dick burgers" at the store still gives me a chuckle.

Haaaaaa. C’mon Deutschland, its a funny phrase. We don’t need a lesson in pronunciation.

In Estonian, twelve months is kaksteist kuud Sounds like “cocks taste good”.

We’re all allowed to enjoy the penis humour.

Who is the "we" here?!

[–] Knossos@lemmy.world 18 points 2 days ago (1 children)

What gets me is the potatoes that are advertised as extra big...

"Extra dick!"

Behold: Metten's "Dicke Sauerländer Bockwurst" (Thick Sauerländer Sausage - Sauerländer is an ambiguous term that means to say the sausage is from the "Sauerland" region, but a person from that region would be referred to as a Sauerländer as well)

[–] deacon@lemmy.world 89 points 2 days ago (2 children)

Isn’t it closer to “we are looking for you”?

[–] realitaetsverlust@piefed.zip 70 points 2 days ago (1 children)

If you take it literally, yes, but it is usually used in a hiring context.

[–] deacon@lemmy.world 33 points 2 days ago (3 children)

Thanks. I wasted a year on Duolingo and got very little idioms, just some supposedly common sayings like das is schnee von gestern, oder es kostet nur einen apfel und ein ei.

Honestly, ich_iel has done more for my understanding than Duolingo did, but it is still almost nil.

[–] idiomaddict@lemmy.world 30 points 2 days ago

Careful, Zangendeutsch is a trap for English speakers. Like, not an intentional one, but you have to check the vocab you pick up there.

[–] islandcoda42@lemmy.zip 5 points 2 days ago

I’m still working on my die/ der/ das ‘s

[–] zaphod@sopuli.xyz 26 points 2 days ago (41 children)

suchen = to search/look for

and ch doesn't make a k sound, not even close.

[–] justme@lemmy.dbzer0.com 16 points 2 days ago

Aaah, thanks, I had a hard time to figure out what is supposed to be funny here.

[–] meekah@discuss.tchncs.de 9 points 2 days ago (3 children)

I'm fairly certain the German ch sound doesn't exist in English

[–] hikaru755@lemmy.world 6 points 2 days ago

Made even worse by the fact that depending on the word it can make two different sounds and neither of them exist in English

Unless you’re a Berliner, but then you have to wonder why your baked goods are talking, and why they insist on being called Pfannkuchen instead.

Oh, this must be so funny when you are monolingual and have no idea how to pronounce German

[–] Etterra@discuss.online 12 points 2 days ago (2 children)

And like most German things, they're saying it in the most terrifying way possible.

[–] hOrni@lemmy.world 6 points 2 days ago

When You speak German to a polish person he will respond with "don't shoot".

[–] python@lemmy.world 5 points 2 days ago

I disagree, because them still searching at least means they haven't found you yet.

Wir haben dich gefunden 👁️👁️

[–] thorhop@sopuli.xyz 4 points 1 day ago (1 children)

The Germophiles came en masse to correct the translation. I guess they were "suchen dich", op.

[–] QuinnyCoded@sh.itjust.works 2 points 1 day ago

I really lost track of what's going on in this thread anymore but I give you 1 gold sheckle for a hearty chuckle

[–] CIA_chatbot@lemmy.world 4 points 1 day ago

There is a “20 bucks is 20 bucks” joke in here somewhere

[–] altphoto@lemmy.today 6 points 1 day ago (1 children)

I wanna be suchen big dich too but my wife is not really too much into it.

[–] TerdFerguson@lemmy.world 1 points 1 day ago

don't you mean "dicke dich" :p

[–] glorkon@lemmy.world 37 points 2 days ago (2 children)

Must be a case of this superior sense of humor that we Germans famously do not possess.

[–] Qwel@sopuli.xyz 12 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago) (2 children)

"ch" is sometimes pronounced "k" in some languages, but then it's quite rare

After considering the issue for a while, I think people just really really want to see dicks everywhere

Moskau, Moskau, hahahahaha!

For more musical goofiness involving Russia, check out Boney M. - Rasputin (also from Germany.)

To be fair that song is a Disco cult classic. That bassline goes hard.

[–] smuuthbrane@sh.itjust.works 15 points 2 days ago (1 children)

I never knew the Germans were so open about fellation.

[–] NottaLottaOcelot@lemmy.ca 10 points 2 days ago (1 children)

They’re not, but it’s the wurst kept secret in all of Europe
