    The German publisher Langenscheidt (became 2019 part of PONS) "awards" since 2008 the "youth word" of the year.
    Langenscheidt used to be very reputable since it provided quality lexicons. But sales are going down so they looked for new revenue streams.
    Every year they publish a lexicon for "youth speak" and the award is more or less a self serving marketing ploy.

      I guess the concept of including English words in German sentences in order for the word choice to become modern, must feel strange to English speakers. These "modern" English words might even actually be very oldfashioned ones to English speakers. I feel like this isn't even considered by many people using English words in German.

    Käsespätzle (Kässpätzle) is a Swabian (in the state of Baden Württemberg) traditional dish that does resemble mac'n'cheese ingredient wise because Spätzle is a type of swabian pasta and it's mixed with cheese.

    About English words "making no sense" in German: we use many English words and when you hear young people talk (or hear them talk in shows aimed at a young audience), it feels to me like every second word is English, or a mix of English and German. We have a lot of those mix-words, too, like (because I heard it just the other day) "to support" becoming "supporten", which is a mix of the English word + the typical German suffix used for verbs. These mixed words are part of the so-called "Denglis(c)h". Other languages seem to know this phenomenom, too. Words are taken from English and just kind of mixed in with the other language. I understand how that happens (I tend to do this, too), but you can definitely over-do it to the point it just feels extremely cringy (well, to me, at least). Plus, sometimes words are used in a wrong way, or words are used that aren't even "cool" or in any way special for English speakers, but might have been used by older generations as well since forever. Also, the everyday-language seems to become more and more English.

    • @blenderpanzi

      English does that too, to a lesser extend. See e.g. "Angst" (which is just German for fear, but is used as Existenzangst in English) or Blitz (which means lightning, but is used in a way derived from Blitzkrieg) etc.

      @@blenderpanzi Yes, that's true, they do that, too, with some words, not only from German. I think that's probably the 'natural course' of languages, they change and also borrow words from other languages. I think we have some foreign words in German that are in use for so long we aren't even really aware anymore they aren't originally German. Still, I find the way modern language includes English words rather extreme (but maybe it's also because many people nowadays do speak English themselves. I notice myself that I often 'forget' German words and can also think of the English one, or the English one seems more useful. That might be one explanation, maybe).

      One of the strengths of English is that the English speaking world is happy to invent new words and borrow from other languages without becoming too defensive about it (the majority of English words, about 75%, are foreign in origin). It just shows you the confidence of English speakers that they are not threatened by it.

      @stef987 11 หลายเดือนก่อน

      @@michaelgoetze2103 I don't know if it's about feeling threatened... I think borrowing words, but also aspects of cultures, can be very enriching. However, a sentence like "Es macht mich so happy, wie die Follower den Stream supporten" doesn't just borrow a few words anymore. It's totally mixing up two languages. If that's how the language evolves, fine. All languages did and still do that. If it's just how the youth speaks, though, with older people often not understanding much, while others find it just cringy (not threatening, but cringy) listening to it... I don't know...
      For me personally, in my thoughts I often use English words or whole sentences, or mix everything up. When I speak, I try to use German words whenever possible (because I don't want to be as cringy as I find others talking like that).

      In general: nuclear power doesnt pollute the air like for example coal does and the amount of radio active waste is not too big in comparison.
      There waste will be a problem for 100000 years, so nuclear power can always just be a temporary solution until we get somewhere with renewable energy sources.
      Also the risk of a fallout is quite small, but if it ever happens the impact is horrible.
      The problem is that there was a huge campaign against nuclear energy in Germany 10-20 years back and the panic it caused was used by big companies to get their dirty old coal plants acceoted by society for way too long.

      But the main issue is the campaign, with a little bit of research it would be very easy to have found out that the companies running the nuclear power plants are widely overlap with the ones running the coal, oil and gas power plants and this is not a surprise as there are only a few big energy companies in germany that control the main parts of the energy market. So your coal plant company campaign would mean they had campaigned against their very own interest. I guess you can easily figure out how likely that is. And no that does not rule out campaigning against nuclear power, but it has nothing to do with the big 4 (or 5 depends on counting) that rule the german energy market.

    Youth Word of the Year.
    There is also a Bird of the Year, a Mushroom of the Year, etc.
    Nuclear Power:
    Germany has abandoned nuclear power.
    New power plants are being built in many countries in Europe. In France, for example, nuclear power is as sacred as guns are in the U.S., or highways are in Germany.
    Advantage nuclear power:
    In my opinion, it is only that no CO2 is emitted, and that they can provide basic power quickly.
    Disadvantage nuclear power:
    The final storage. And since we don't have enough fissile material in Germany, we would be dependent on other countries instead of the oil states.
    Nuclear power plants are 99% safe. Is that enough, in case of an emergency? It is often argued that electricity from nuclear power is cheap. But this is unfortunately wrong, even without the factor of final storage.

    Nuclear power sounds good on paper. Until you realize that in order to keep it safe, you have to spend so much money as a company, it becomes the most expensive source of power. And, what France learned recently, with the ongoing rising temperatures the rivers that are used to cool the nuclear power plants get too hot in the summer. Which led to them shutting down half of their NPPs (together with outages and maintenance) last year. Which then in turn led to France importing German energy from renewables.
    Now if we were heading towards a generally colder climate, that would be fine. But that's not the case, it will only get hotter and hotter for the forseeable future.
    Also, NPPs are the worst when it comes to blackouts. It takes days and weeks to get one back online. Renewables like Wind, Solar and Hydro online take a few minutes, fossile power plants a few hours. You can't just turn off and on a NPP.
    And, well, from a strategic point of view, the current war in Ukraine shows why it's a bad idea to have a highly centralized power network. Russia took the NPPin the Zaporizhzhia region in 2022, which produces roughly 20% of Ukraines energy.
    To quote Wikipedia:
    "The destruction of the nearby Kakhovka Dam on 6 June 2023 was reported to have no immediate risk to the plant.[41] Generally five units have been in cold shutdown with one unit kept in hot shutdown, which the IAEA reported was necessary to produce steam for nuclear safety purposes, including the processing of liquid radioactive waste in storage tanks. The IAEA is urging the investigation of whether an external boiler can be installed as an alternative to keeping one unit in hot shutdown.[42][43]"

Think about having an accident near you and a whole state is uninhabitable for centuries. An accident might not be probable but it is not impossible as history has told us. And the effects and following costs are so big, that most companies only rely on the states to cover that, because no insurance would be able to. And with the capitalistic only money counts approach of the US and inhuman leadership in Russia, China and other countries, it is only a question of time until the next catastrophe happens.

He is just in the shadow. It's not like he lives at the arctic circle and the sun only raises above the horizon for 20 minutes.
    And the nuclear power thing. Even when we live in a very safe area where natural desasters are pretty much impossible the "what if" is still a big thing. We don't have an empty nevadan desert where we can digg a hole and store the waste long term. (in human timescale). It's always in someones vicinity and a half of the country just doesn't work because of the geology anyway. You guys put your waste in a bunker in the Marshall-Islands in the pacific. Almost 5000 miles from the lower 48. And that think is about to burst. Pretty nice, right? The U.S. has 88,000 metric tons of spent fuel in nuclear power plants in around 30 states and adds 2,000 tons each year. And we still have not single permanent deposit site (on planetary timescale) on the whole globe after 60 years of nuclear fusion. 60 years, on the whole planet. Let that sink in. Only finland is in the process of building one. Literally everyone is just working with temporary solutions and has the luxurity to store it temporarily in the middle of nowhere where noone lives and therefore noone cares and it doesn't become a topic of public interest. A lot of it is irrational fear but not completely. Depending on the reactor type this stuff needs to be save for hundreds, if not tens of thousands of years. You can't just half ass that stuff. And with our federal system, it's hard to find a deposit spot because of the politics. You don't win elections if you open up your state for the perceived Sodom und Gomorra

    Nuclear power for electricity is not only cleaner than using combustion, but it's also way less radioactive than coal power. All of the radiation involved in nuclear power is contained almost completely, whereas burning coal throws out radioactive carbon isotopes into the atmosphere that then blanket massive areas surrounding the plants. Hydroelectric plants seem better, but they pollute and disrupt rivers, making it hard for the various animals to live there. Wind farms require huge areas of empty land to be worthwhile, which is not ideal for Europe.

    5:37 Nuclear power is an exciting way to produce energy, even if you just boil water. Likewise, nuclear power does not emit carbon dioxide when generating energy. However, nuclear power has some problems. The power plants take up a lot of space and need a huge safety zone. If a power plant breaks down, in the negative case we are dealing with a regional Armageddon. The region around the power plant will be contaminated for many, many years, possibly even regions hundreds of kilometers away, depending on the wind. Nuclear power plants also have a waste problem. You can't even just throw out the trash. It is highly dangerous and must be safely stored in extremely expensive and special tunnels for probably millions of years or so. Likewise, nuclear power is dependent on mining. Uranium or other substances sometimes have to be mined in a very dirty way so that they can ultimately be burned into energy. Because of this, there are many people in Germany and Europe who find nuclear power very critical, even though it can generate a lot of cheap energy. And it can be dangerous. The disaster in Chernobyl (Ukraine) also affected parts of Germany. There are repeated warnings not to collect and eat mushrooms in certain parts of Germany because of the radiation exposure that was caused by the accident. However, there is further research that looks at nuclear power and fusion power and wants to make them safer, which still works with radioactive elements, but which have a more pleasant half-life than uranium. For example, the thorium liquid salt reactors. I believe deuterium will be used in fusion reactors that are currently being researched.

    The hole thing about nuclear power is very complex. To summarized it I would say it's too expensive and it takes too much time to build a power plant. It's like that the plan is to build a power plant in 10 years for 8 billion euro, but at the end it cost 40 billion and took 30 years. The electicity from it is also more expensive than from other sources. So it makes much more sense to rely on wind and solar energy which are the cheapest forms of energy production. Also we rely on imports from countrys like russia for nuclear, while we would not rely on any other country with wind and solar energy. It's much more complex, I know, but that summarized my biggest concerns about nuclear energy.

    "J" in German is pronounced as "Y". Jugend is pronounced as Yugend. "W" is pronounced as "V" so Wort is pronounced as Vort.

      I does's not wants to pronounce correctly. Wie oft ich schon geschrieben habe das das "o" in Hallo anderes ausgesprochen wird.. Er hatte es in älteren Videos schon des öfteren richtig ausgesprochen, daher denke ich es ist Absicht.
