My daughter is a great fan of all from Germany. She was learning in german school here in Riga and choose this language by herself (I dont know German). And I dont know why.

Hm... never thought in terms of "German culture". I can think of Rilke and Friedrich... and Schopenhauer (was he German?), oh and Hermann Hesse and Thomas Mann. And Kraftwerk, of course... and the Berlin railway station... and Octoberfest and sauerkraut with sausages but you have that in Poland too... hm? Enlighten me if you feel so inclined!

Oh and Bach and Beethoven, goodness that's quite the team already!

Our sauerkraut tastes different from the German one!
Friedrich Nietsche - philospher...Arthur Schopenhauer was of course German but he was born in my hometown - Gdansk (Danzig)!!!

By Berlin railway station you mean Hauptbahnhof?

And then there's the German love of engineering:

BMW, Mercedes, VAG, Porsche, Liebherr lathes and milling machines, AEG domestic appliances, TW Acustic hi-fi turntables etc etc

...and hey, the Germans make the best detective movies!!...Krimis!!....

....and Klöse!!...and sauerkraut, and sausages....ja, ist alles würst!!...

...and hey, the Germans make the best detective movies!!...Krimis



They do??? Have to watch more German TV!!!

Wie geht es ihnen?
I've learned little German and find that has more order and it is easier to learn, but I have never had chance to use it and forgot everything.

Ah but
Nietsche I think was Austrian. It's easy to get them mixed up though! Schubert was too... Oh but Heidegger, Hegel and Kant were German! Not bad. My brain is starting to work which is good because Germany is often surpassed as way boring. And of course, The South is very different and very lovely, as is Berlin.
Yeah I don't remember was it the railway station or the airport that they built recently? Supposed to be amazing.

Ah, I've been to Gdansk many times! Will never forget the sauerkraut/sausages they served in the ferries!

I speak some German.

... and Siemens.

now now....don't lower the tone!

Actually Nietzsche was born in Prussia.

October 15, 1844
Röcken bei Lützen, Prussia

Maybe you mean Miroslav Klose, the footballer? If yes, he was actually born in Poland and emigrated to Germany as a child/teenager, just like another guy named Podolski!

Can you give the titles of these detective movies?

Yeah...that wanker in the raincoat...big emotional macho type...ich werde übel jedesmal ich zuschaue...

Podolski, Kowalski, Whateverski...yeah...that guy...his signature style is...he totally loses it in every show...tears, sweat, snot and trane....the whole programme....

Hehe well there you go... in central Europe people moved around a lot, now how the hell are you supposed to know these things unless you look it all up in Wikipedia now the question is, is he then part of German culture or just Germanic culture??

Not that slimy old fox??? They rerun the show though it's already 20-30 years old and I never understood why... looked rather boring to me... but then I'm just a typical chick

in terms of engineering, science, sport and music, Germany is one of the greatest nations on Earth .. I have travelled through Germany and spent some time in Hamburg and Cologne and I'm planning to go to Munich soon .. I really like the people too .. throughout my life I have known several German friends .. and thay have all been decent people ..

Personally can't think of any German director apart from Wim Wenders, now that does sound Dutch though! Stationed in Germany maybe??

Yeah they are diligent and hardworking, that's for sure. Unfortunately their reputation isn't always quite deserving of the real nature of many Germans, I've known a few really nice ones too.
