I am also German. The rules mentioned make sense to me. It is very easy to get used to them and you quickly notice that the rules are only for everyone's personal benefit.👍
I think one of the quietest moments in modern history in Brazil was in 2014 after the semi-final against Germany. But then we also beat Argentina to make amends.
if you do though, everyone will tell you that is why everyone in Germany is under scrutiny ... "the German stare" is just us waiting for others to make a mistake to immediately jump at them being a Besserwisser (smart-alec)
I've watched some videos from this girl, but I've always had the feeling she makes videos targeting an English-speaking audience, based on some stereotypes Americans and British have about Germans.
Here in Finland there is a law related to naming the baby. So in a nutshell it goes like this: - Everybody must have a first name and a last name. - The name has to be proper Finnish, unless one of the parents or both of them are from a different culture. The max number of the first names is four. Unless it's a religious or cultural reason the first name of a person's living siblings or step-siblings should not be the same one. - No trademarks, though there are six Gandalfs signed as names, two of them being a woman. - The name should be clear to point out the gender though the are names like "Miska" which can be given both male and female. They say that nowdays this is mainly depending on how people see traditions. - No signs, markings or added numerals. So your name cannot be "Johannes69?!!:" - Though they are different spellings it should be clear to parents how the name is to be pronounced like the Finnish woman's name "Tiia" can also be written like "Tia" but it's usually read in a similar way. - Pseudo names, pet nicknames, harmful or commonly offensive meanings aren't allowed. There is a bit of debate going on. You cannot name your child as "Lucifer" but "Saturn" was alright. The names like "Pöly" (dust), "Lapitar" (The lady/mistress of Lapland) and "Häkä" (carbon monoxide) were allowed. Also the names that are put as their own but make the same combination as the one aren't recommended. So the name "Lumikukka" should be alright but "Lumi" as first name and "Kukka" as second is not recommended. The first and the last name put together that makes a harmful or an offensive combination isn't allowed. Usually the first and last name combination aren't allowed/recommended.
5:00 The female/male name thing was officially abolished in 2008 (and there were many exception even before, like names being considered "female" in part of the country and "male" in another, or names being considered "female" in German, but "male" in the culture of one of the parents (like Andrea = female in German, but male in Italian). The rules are meant to protect children from ill advised parents. 7:55 Freedom of speech also does not mean freedom to lie. 9:35 Not fully correct. It is not forbidden to mow the lawn at Sundays, but it is forbidden to mow it in a way audible to your neighbor. The law intends to protect peace and quietness during recovery periods in the night and at the weekend. The work-free Sunday as time of rest is by the way a constitutional right in Germany (with some exemptions for health and emergency services, restaurants and services and goods for travelers) - it shall allow families to spend the time together without the one or other having to go to work. 11:55 This specific rules are mostly not found in the law itself, but in court rulings. However municipalities are entitled to make some specific rules for their territory (like the exact times for the "quiet hours"). 13:25 This is also connected to the constitutional obligation to protect human dignity - which applies also after death. It is however debatable if such a strict rule is still in keeping with the times in any case. 13:40 Slightly incorrect: "Sie" is the German word for "you" (or e.g. Spanish "usted"), while "du" is German for (old) English "thou". English has abolished the informal form and only kept the formal one.
German here ... Everything seems to be so complicated and exhausting.But please dont bei worried.Usualy it isnt really that way.If youre a foreigner and you simply dont know about some Rules Most people will help you.And i also dont Like the Word Rules for a certain Kind of behaviour germans appriciate ist Just Something we do in a certain way .Please dont be worried to much about that topic
Almost everyone now has a smartphone. And it is not allowed to listen to loud music on public transport such as buses or trains (trams), for example, as this can disturb other passengers. But... there are people who talk on the phone while travelling and often very loudly! These are usually people who are not from Germany! And I also find that very disturbing! As you can see, Germans often don't like it loud.
The 1st name story very much depends on the registration office. The further you go north, the cooler they are. Silence is very precious. Howvare you supposed to relax otherwise?
About the Germans loving rules: In The Netherlands we say something to illustrate the difference in attitude between us and our neighbors the Germans: "In The Netherlands everything is allowed, unless something is specifically forbidden while in Germany everything is forbidden, unless something is specifically allowed😉
PS: i luv u guys. U are, what we shud be like. I only spendca couple of days in Den Haag this summer, but people were gorgeous 😊 Lovely, really ❤ Ill return next year 🎉
She always makes nice videos, but she's wrong about one thing. In German criminal law, insulting public officials is not a separate offense. I know this because there is currently a discussion in Germany about reintroducing "lese majeste" because some politicians feel like they're special and can't handle criticism well. There are now private agencies that search the Internet for potential insults against politicians and report them. Some have already had their homes searched by police because of this. "Schwachkopf-Affäre".
You're right, the paragraph doesn't exist. But the judiciary is given a certain amount of leeway. The agency was unlawful because there were no employed lawyers and abolished itself.
Germany wants to let MERCOSUR into Europe, which will greatly weaken the European agricultural and livestock market. Letting in meat where Brazil pumps meat with growth hormones directive 2003/74/EC and 96/22/EC, grains that do not meet sanitary and plant protection standards. As usual, Germany has a mouth full of phrases, the European Union, community, solidarity, but only when they are the hegemon of Europe, when the weak vote for the extreme right and destroy everything around for profit and to be better. They have not changed at all, now they are fighting a trade war instead of a military one, but that is only because they do not have an army and no one willing to fight it.
I have rarely seen a more bizarre worldview than here! It seems to me that you are a person whose tolerance ends where your own wallet begins. Has it ever occurred to you that opportunities are being opened up for Brazil, that they are seriously concerned about preserving the rainforest, or about cutting off the water supply from eastern dictatorships? There isn't enough brainpower for that... As I said... Your own wallet is your personal god. It is also called philistinism...
@@melchiorvonsternberg844 Yours, on the other hand, is thinking that it doesn't matter who I harm, as long as I feel good. It's Brazil that thinks with its wallet and wants to sell its low-quality products where in Europe farmers and breeders have been adapting to regulations for decades, working hard to produce the best and healthiest food. Who thinks with their wallet when they pour chemicals into everything and when farm animals are vaccinated with growth hormones so that instead of months of gaining weight naturally, it only lasts weeks and more and more.
@@SPAWN30670 I'm almost afraid you're missing the bigger picture. We're in a new cold war, this time led by power-hungry dictators, which means it's worse than before. Because where China stands this time is hard to miss. Brazil has a key position in this. That's why the concessions to ignore climate change are being made. But someone whose miserable wallet replaces his brain doesn't understand that. This is about the well-being of all of us! For the greater good. And that's exactly what I'm lamenting. Rest assured that I, and most people do too if you ask, appreciate your efforts to produce good quality at an acceptable price! But you shouldn't narrow your view so much... And one more thing, I'll give you on your way: "The only thing (apart from the end) that is certain in life is that nothing is certain..."
@@SPAWN30670 Brazil has literally the best meat in the world, you lunatic. The most famous barbecue in the world. It's not their fault they have geographical advantages for producing agricultural goods. Everything you're saying is conspirationist bullcrap, typical from far-right lunatics who inform themselves by Telegram channels. I'm almost sure you're a Russian bot.

I have found the noise thing is not repected universally in Germany. Some people make noise after midnight. Only Sundays are quiet.
Cool, first post.❤️😁
Germany = Rules to be followed.😂😂
Keep up the good work.
Love your channel.❤
greetings from The Netherlands 👍👍👍❤

You can generalize the "General Rights" in Germany to: As long as you do not damage other peoples rights, you can do what you want.
if you do though, everyone will tell you

well she moved to the States of course that is influencing her outlook on life
