Hier sind zehn lustige Dinge, die meine Kunden gesagt haben.

Here are 10 funny things my clients have said.

Wellllllll, only 9. Because the original #10 was so funny that my clients all started learning the words wrong, because the joke stuck better than the original German word, so I've cut that out of the audio here.

Es gut mir nicht leid! ~ I'm not sorry! Because I've prevented you from making a potentially offensive mistake. No one wants to offend their in-laws...

Without further ado, here is the list:

  1. der Wasserhahn

  2. sein = to be. sein = his

  3. ADUSO

  4. sich verlieben in + Akk

  5. Drogen oder Medikamente?!

  6. Kichererbsen

  7. der Schmetterling

  8. etwas gebacken kriegen

  9. der Öko-Spießer (use with caution!)

  10. not Schwiegereltern, but...

    1. Number 10 has been CUT because so many people learned the joke my client said as if it were the correct word.

    2. Seriously, just learn Schwiegersohn, Schwiegertochter, Schwiegermutter und Schwiegervater. The joke? Forgetaboutit.

N.B. While the GermanWithNicole.com Podcast no longer exists, you can still hear all of the audios here on the blog. The audios are available on the blog posts published between August 1, 2021 and October 1, 2024. Viel Spaß beim Hören!
