I love seeing BW having fun learning different languages, being open minded, thriving, and choosing love (without limiting themselves to only black love)

It‘s so funny to watch this one as a German😄

It should be: "Ich glaube ich spinne!" It's a lowercase s in spinne, because it is a verb and does not refer to the animal. The Englisch equivalent even has the same etymology: to spin, meaning to fastly rotate something and in the context of the origin of the saying is a spinning wheel.

Hi guys, thats a really funny video, thank you both for that. Btw, Sven mentioned between to sentences the "Spanisch". The saying goes "Das kommt mir Spanisch vor". It is a very very old saying. And the origine story is quite interesting (at least I think it is): The saying is around 500 years old, at which point the emperor of the Holy Roman Empire (now a days Germany) was Charles V. a Habsburger from Spain. And he brought a lot of Spanish customs and behaviours to the German emperors court, which the Germans where unfamiliar with, so it: "kam ihnen Spanish vor" which than was generalised to all strange things.

"Da wird ja der Hund in der Pfanne verrückt", "Der hat nicht alle Tassen im Schrank", "Da haben wir den Salat"... die Liste könnte endlich weiter gehen 😂

spinnen, verb, making a thread from loose wool. spinning. Not Spinne (spider). 🤣

„I only understand train station“ would be something like „it’s all Greek to me“…

Just found this channel and I am sooo happy because my trajectory is moving out of the US and I’ve been researching Germany.

First, handsome couple. You look beautiful and your skin is glowing and your hair is popping and growing fast. Stay Blessed 💓

My fiancé is German and I’m on day 136 of learning! This is so cute!

He got. nice Voice

I just found you and I am so excited! I am American (New Yorker) living in Düsseldorf and currently studying level C1 German. 🥰 So happy to see you!

Hi. Nice video! The sentence "Du spinnst Wohl" has nothing to do with spiders (Spinnen). It has its roots in the word "to spin".

Guten Tag! Thank you for the amazing content! I’m loving the German learning videos. Please keep making them. Great work and danke!

A fun linguistic fact: Old English (spoken around 500-1100 AC) was a lot closer to today's German. Obviously, German back than was different too but it shows that German has been much more conservative when it came down to changes while English had a ton of French influence by the year 1300 and now of all foreign loanwords English has, over half of them is French or entered English from French via Latin or vice versa. Plus, English went hardcore "simplification mode". So every German speaking person who hears Old English or even Middle English (1100-1400 AC so even Shakespeare did not speak Middle English anymore but in fact, Early Modern English), will recognize Old/Middle English as almost a "brother" language to today's German rather than a "cousin". Other random examples: Hound = Dog, but the original word in English was "hound", which then changed semantic meaning into a dog breed, the hound. Meanwhile, the breed "dogge" took the place and now means "dog", encompassing the whole animal. German still uses "Hund" as an overarching term for dogs, retaining its original meaning. Wife = used to only mean "woman", in German, that word developed into "Weib", a now derogative term for a woman. Woman = derived from "wifman" and considering the earlier explanation, it literally means a man's "Weib" so the English word "woman", etymologically, means a man's female partner.

Ihr beiden seid echt knuffig 🤩 Vielen Dank für das lustige und interessante Video 🤗

So nice to see you together! 🤩

Sven is always thirsty gosh🤣if it’s not coffee it’s wine😂😂I love you guys😂❤️

Love your video. I think "It sounds Greek to me! " is the equivalent translation to "Ich verstehe nur Bahnhof!"
