Bovington: "The Germans love our videos about building and maintaining tanks!"
Poland: *concern*
Lol
Poland is using Leopard 2.
It'll take about 10 years to bring the Bundeswehr back to the same standard as the Polish is right now. So no need to worry ;O)
@@marcelhalbich9301 well ya know they have leopard 2 too right
@@generalsquirrel9548 of course (I am German and was a Leo1 gunner). So I'm aware what the Bundeswehr does have. But the difference to the Polish Army is... they ordered spare parts with their tanks ;O)
Goed gedaan, Chris!
War ja klar, dass ihr hier mitguckt. :)
The German is incredibly good, especially considering you’re not a native and regular speaker. Hat off, from me sir!
Few non-europeans appreciate how close German is to Dutch, Danish, Flemish and how many German-speaking minorities there are in Eastern Europe.
Once you have the German grammar reasonably down German is actually much easier than English. Secondly: Germans are very forgiving to non-native speakers. They will nitpick constantly about minor grammatical points - but otherwise. French will outright refuse to speak to you if your french isn't perfect.
When I was young: The first time I was in Germany, I spoke to a person just after I had arrived and then again to him just before I went back home. According to him: I started out with an error in just about every sentence and after 6 weeks I had one in every 10 sentences.
Now generally the Dutch speak a very good German, but won't. They will much rather speak English - which they absolutely butcher. It is much easier to speak with Dutch in German - comprehension wise.
If he didn't say it in the beginning I'd never have guessed that he isn't a native speaker. He sounds like someone from northern germany that has lived in england for a while. Really impressive.
@@thomasborgsmidt9801 it's probably easier for the duch to speak german than for the germans to try duch. that's my personal experience at least 😅
@@darthcalanil5333 Definately! Danes too. It is funny to listen to Germans speaking English - their grammar is much better than natural speakers; but their accent is so thick you can slice it - generally speaking. Ursula von der Leyen is an exception.
The funny thing is: In Turkey you can get by speaking German, as there are so many retired workers that have worked in Germany at some point.
My fourth language is spanish - it should have been italian - great food (allways important to a Dane) and great opera.
@@thomasborgsmidt9801i speak afrikaans. Its derived from dutch. Its part of the west germanic language tree. I can understand dutch and flemish to a degree but i can not understand german at all. Only some words i can understand that sounds and spelled close to the dutch word. But i can not understand a sentence. I wish i could speak german. My ancestors are german and i have a german name also.
Nice Video, its a nice gift for me as a german that you did it in german, but you absolutly dont have to do it in german. You are the English Tank Museum after all so I am completly fine with english.
I am trying to learn German, so I enjoyed this very much! :)
Best wishes to you Martin.
British tank museum. English is missing out Scottish, Welsh and Northern Irish.
Respectfully, I absolutely disagree, when Arsenalen started producing videos in my language (English) I got a whole lot more enjoyment. I hope this is the first in a long line of foreign language videos. Its not a hardship for us to read subtitles sometimes
@@Musketeer009so what are the dominant languages in Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland?
You want scottish Gaelic, Welsh Cymraeg, and Northern Irish celtish episodes?
Ok, this video is fantastic! I'm actually just starting to learn German, so the speech in German with English subtitles is really helpful.
Thanks! :)
My goodness...as a typically monolingual Australian, I am always envious of anyone who can switch effortlessly from one language to another......Thanks Chris, or should I write: dank u!
Well I do not think it's hard for you if you live in any urban area down under to pick up a few foreign tougue. There is a significant Asian population in down under . If you are willing , there is a way. .
Very good German! And if I he hadn’t told in the beginning my guess would be he learned German somewhere near Cologne. The pronunciation is quite distinct for that area
That explains why it sounded quite pleasant to me: my German teachers both spent time living near Bonn and our exchange-school was east of Köln. Germans have told me my accent is very NRW.
I'm going to watch this again later when I need another pre-visit refresher.
Stimmt, jetzt wo ich genauer hin höre, merk ich es
Thanks (and Danke!) for this little gift to the German audience. While almost all of us perfectly understand English, we nonetheless appreciate it very much!
Wauw Chris! Je spreekt niet alleen vloeiend Engels maar ook vloeiend Duits. Respect! Dit was een vette aflevering!
here to say hello to my german friends, cheers from the netherlands :)
Just want to say hello to our German friends. We love you guys. We also love your beer and girls.
And beer
@@Masada1911 and more beer. Love Warsteiner
@Graham Clarke never had currywurst
@Graham Clarke Liverpool England was going to go the German beer festival you know octoberfest but here and i don't think it's on with the pandemic now 😭
Beer indeed !! "Never skim a Erdinger" ... Jurgen Klopp 2020.
Zufriedenstellend
Now seriously: it was very enjoyable.
Die Aufgabe wurde zur vollsten Zufriedenheit erfüllt.
Well done Chris.
What a great thing to do - an episode in German!
Thanks for giving me a chance to practice my German. I know enough to sound like a child ordering a beer... :)
that's all you need to know...
Nice, have you seen "Inglourious Basterds"? - the German way of ordering 3 beers :)
As a student learning German, I was pleasantly surprised at how much I could understand. But I also realize how much brushing up I need to do!
Great and informative video, as always!
I have probably watched most of the Tank Museum's videos but today I thought I would scroll through and try and find one I had not seen. Lovely to see someone different presenting and wonderful that you did it in German. Bravo sir.
We need to get Sabaton to do one
*one video later*
"Chris.... where did half the collection go?"
I'd be willing to bet the chieftain (or atleast the swedish version of it) will be someone on that list.
@@AshleyBlackwater I think your thinking of Centurion as the swedes did not operate the chieftain
@@Eggplantbody8 Yes, always get those two confused sorry.
6:51 "Scorpion at 70 km/hr" Take the speed governor off (which was def something that never happened. ever. nope, not at all) and the Scorpion would hit 125 km/hr on the highway without much problem. It was scary as hell at that speed ( so I'm told) but it would do it.
I don't know it is safe enough to do so... Yeah, it is light, for a tank.
I wonder if what someone told you was the same way I've been told that elk meat is awesome - since the species stays under strict protection.
I live in a large town not far from Bovington, Scorpion convoys were a regular sight. I fell in love with them when I was behind one caught by traffic lights on a roundabout. when the lights turned green I became aware that you could drift one all the way round
As someone learning German, I love this. Tanks and a beautiful language all in one place.
I'm impressed Mr. Chris van Schaardenburgh!
Thank you Sir!
Greetings from Thuringia.
Great to hear from someone in the Bovvi team who gets hands on to rank the the ranks.
Please more like this from the team and more
Workshop diaries.
Not a native German speaker but your German sounds very good. Living abroad especially at small age is very beneficial for language skills. Thumbs up for having a Leopard 1 in the list even though it's not a Belgian one ;-)
awesome video!! love the technical knowledge he shared with us, considering he worked on the vehicles, especially the Matilda 2. Looking forward to the next one!
Thank you for this german version. Your german is very clean. You are all doing a fantastic job at the tank museum. Keep it up. Greetings from Austria
I don’t speak German and I absolutely enjoyed the whole video! Excellent choices and clear presentation.
Well that was surreal. I’m a brit living in the US for now but normally an adopted Fleming who works in Keulen. I thought you did really well - having done a few vehicle presentations in German myself I know it’s not easy. Chapeau.
Vielen Dank Chris und Tank Museum Bovington!
As soon as he switched to german I immediatly thought Netherland! Vacation feelings😁
Really great. Engineering maintenance is the most fascinating thing about tanks. Danka!
Hee Chris, ik kom zelf ook uit Nederland, Spreek, schrijf en lees ook Duits. Maar je uitspraak en het gemak dat jij Duits spreekt vind ik echt super. Je merkt dat jij echt een tijd in Duitsland hebt doorgebracht, Ik kan mijn Duits alleen oefenen als ik daar op vakantie ben ( Duitsland is een heerlijk vakantie land! ) en online als ik met mijn Duitse maten aan het gamen ben. Maar alles wat je hebt gezegd heb ik direct kunnen volgen, geen vertaling nodig gehad haha. Top gedaan, Petje af!
"if we like top 5 tanks?" what kind of question is this, we love it )
Clear and understandable german, very good to listen to!
a pleasant surprise to get a top 5 in german, and well spoken german at that
As a Brit, I say Bravo. An excellent video, and yes please do more. Reading the subtitles did not detract from the information or my enjoyment
Grossartiger Streifzug durch die Ausstellungspanzer in Bovington...echt tolle Auswahl! Cool & locker, fliessend beschrieben, hab' selbst Chieftain, Challenger 1 & 2 gefahren & geschossen! Besatzungsmitglied bei der Britische Rhein Armee, damals. Toll gemacht, hab's gemocht! ;-)
Even though I don’t speak or understand the German language, I’ve really enjoyed watching this. Somehow hearing the German language describing German tanks while watching the English subtitles was, although a novelty as such from my point of view, very satisfying
Unglaublich! Chris spricht super deutsch! Ich schäme mich immer, weil ich knapp vor der Grenze zu den Niederlanden lebe, die Sprache aber nur verstehe, wenn ich sie lese.
Very nice presentation and a good choice of vehicles. Of course, as a German I liked the Leo 1 the best.
Hartelijk dank!
Great idea to share in different languages! Well done!
Would it be wrong to see the curator do the Tiger bit from Al Murray's Top 5 speaking German?
I really appreciate the extra details you’ve brought to this video. I’ll be there tomorrow for Tiger day 👍👍👍. Please pull the FV4202 out for us all to enjoy
Well done sir! I wish my German was up to your level! Chapeau!
I like it more than the other top 5 because in 3rd, 2nd and 1st it covers my favorite type of armor. Two older tanks are also some I like a lot.
Thank you for the content.
Danke :)
You should do this more often, beautifully done!
Ah, cool, decent guy, actually helped me with a paper I was writing for my undergrad.
Think you were onto the third Tank before I realised you were speaking German and not from the West Country. Best Top five in a long time.
German is my second language. I enjoyed it. Kindly produce more.
Thank you
Am honour to see my native language honored that way
Eine Freude Euch auf deutsch hören zu dürfen.
The nice part is... besides your work there... that you actually kept some of the Cologne dialect in the words. Props for doing this and acknowledging the Gerrman audience. But I might add we still watch even in English. Nonetheless thanks for the effort.
Ich komme aus Nordost Schottland & I think its cool to appeal to more viewers in Germany.
Last time i visited the old quarter of Frankfurt a great time was had.
Ik wacht wel op een Nederlandse versie ! 😏
Great work all. Nice idea 🙂
I did not know that so many other Germans were watching this channel. Very nice.
Vielen Dank für das interessante Video Chris.
Very Good Enjoyed it !!! Brilliant
Awesome tanks and one of my first loves was a German girl thank you for the memories of a great time
That was good. Thanks :)
I like the way that German works like English, in that you can just throw words in from different languages and it still works. I'm sure there is a German word for helicopter.
posh Helicopter
very posh Drehflügler (does include all rotary winged aircraft)
standard Hubschrauber
coll Heli, Hubi
Yay some one who agrees with my love to the Challenger mk 1, it is the best looking tank imho.
I enjoyed this very much ---
Das war ganz gut, danke! I managed to follow most, my German is a little rusty!
An excellent top 5 , i really enjoyed that ( even if it ment reading the subtitles 😆 )
If I was 11 years old again and got played this in school, then you can bet I would have got a head start learning to speak German
Dieser Video hat mir sehr gefreut, hoffentlich gibt es mehrere Videos auf Deutsch.
Great stuff.
Love this, love the subtitles, wish you had kept true to them and done some typos though, wish i knew more then one language, "zehr gutt" is very good though yeah? :)
Tolle Tanks und perfektes Deutsch. Danke für den Beitrag 👍
Nicely done
Didn't understand a word good thing I can read. Trlff video I like the variety of top 5 choices and the reasons for the choice. How about getting the curators of other tank museums to pick their top 5 in Bovington could be interesting
Danke schön ;)
das was wundebar danke.
Trust the Dutch to excel in English AND German. Well done, Sir, well done indeed!
Oh cool a new tank museum video ill watch it. (Its in german) THAT WONT STOP ME
I suppose you will see an invintation from Das Panzermusuem to do also a top 5 from their collection. Goed gedaan!
Nice presentation. German is such a nice language when not used by bad guys in movies.
About buying a Scorpion: I don't suppose it's possible to get it with a long-barrel 76mm? ;)
I'll be back. Cant concentrate on german while on lunch break right now 😅🤙
Finally some love for the Scorpion!
Nah, war sehr gut, Ich mag den Leopard natürlich ! Guter schau, vielen dank Chris !!!
Colonia, Colonia Fantastica.
Schöne Grüße vom Rhein in die Niederlande! Tolles Video
It's great to see you subtitling your videos but you really should use the youtube subtitle feature rather than embed them in the video. It really helps with accessibility as people with eyesight issues can have them read to them.
Danke sehr
1:23 rare picture of a german officer explaining how their captured MK IV works
Well, I appreciate very much that You speak German. Not because I am German. Neither is Chris van Schaardenburgh (he is dutch); but basically BECAUSE we are not German.
You might like or dislike the Germans, but make no mistake: It is the central european culture in one variant or the other.
It is sort of the same situation with the americans: You might like or dislike them; but to deny their importance is plainly stupid.
Personally I would have liked an Italian also; but considering the political developments I understand there is a particularly nasty war on opera stages in these "difficult times".
Danke, mein Herr!
Wat een topbaan heb je!!!!
sehr cool, danke :)
Now not possible but I would have loved to seen Lemmy do his Top 5 tanks
Danke dafür
brilliant
G E K O L O N I S E E R D
Wait, what? This in German?
Second biggest audience you say?
Dont’t get any funny ideas Germans...
Don’t worry they won’t try anything there within colonising distance
If you look at the sad state of the Bundeswehr-vehicles, you might know there is nothing to fear. The Bovington-Tank-Collection could beat them back ;)
@@dointh4198 sad but true
Actually "gekoloniseerd" is wrong German. It is "kolonisiert" or if you want to get across the meaning of colonized used lately in public media I would rather call it "besetzt".
Guten Tag
tolles neues Video
a surprise to be sure, but a welcome one.
Gelukkig hebben we de ondertitels nog.
I hit like before I even watched the video.
Mooi Duits Chris! Kunnen jullie ook ooit een Nederlands gesproken video maken?
Were the Challenger tanks, more reliable mechanically than the Chieftain?
First I would like to apologise to Chris but that was one sexy video. As an engineer I am in always interested in the engineering of the tanks. Can we have a new “Tank Chat”, bugger the curator ( not really. the history is always good) but I want to know why 2 engines, which parts of the Mark IV came from commercial in use stuff COTS “Commercial off the shelf“ in modern parlance how did they make the Leopard so light etc etc
Fantastic presentation!
Cheers
Tom
