      I am French, Breton - when you say sparkling apple juice, you mean CIDER I guess ;-) (joke)
      Otherwise I do not think we are so different each others. I am working with so many EU nationalities now, and I can tell we are all the same. Of course we have all some specificity, but they are kind of minor to me, because I can tell as a Breton, I am probably closer to an Irish dude than a person leaving from the South of France - By that, I mean even in France, we are quite different already.
      Diversity is good, but I think we are clearly not that different after all. That's why I feel European I think :)

      The first time I drank sparkling ice tea (actually sparkling, not a mixed beverage) was in Hungary some decades back and while I wasn't too fond of it back then as a child I'm glad it found its way to Germany. Une boisson nostalgique.

    I am from Germany. In my opinion the main difference is pride. The french are very proud (about their language, their food, the culture) - sometimes even a little closed minded because of it or even a little arrogant about it 😉. The germans arent that much (guess why) but still are hurt when the french speak bad about their cuisine or something (guess thats normal). Also the germans actually like french culture a lot (a saying is "like god in france" meaning 'living the good life') i am not too sure if the love is shared the other way around 😜. Also i think that french and germans are not too different tbh. Both people seem a little unfriendly first but have a big heart (i mean the french and german have the same acestors and even forefather in Charlemagne/ Karl der große.), they both love/ care for nature, literature and social causes a lot. In my personal opinion the french are extremely nice people and very friendly. I absolutely can not confirm the cliché about them. Oh and i think in both countries there is an understanding of both of our countries being the motor of the EU. I just wish we would get closer together (more exchanges in school, universities etc) after all we kinda are the same people.

      @@TomGB-81 you are speaking about your German queen? Btw. Welcome to the 21st century, the Raj is gone, Germany is on friendly terms with all its neighbours, especially France, and has no contested borders. Why is France so pro German involvement in the EU? Have you ever heard about the contract that was struck between the two Germanies and the occupying powers to enable German reunification (2+4 contract)? France's condition for accepting a reunited Germany was that Germany would integrate itself even more into the EU. France demanded the introduction of an European currency, the creation of an European military etc. as a precondition to permit our reunification. So why on earth would they have anything against us keepin our word and fullfilling our obligations towards them? France wants an United States of Europe and made it the condition for German unification. That's why we are on board with that and that's also why we are both working together towards that goal.

    I used to have a pretty bad image of Germany from being cursed at several times by Germans just for being French at the border. I went to Heidelberg a bit worried that I was going to be treated the same way, so I told my family to lay low and not speak French too loud in the streets. Not in the slightest! The people I met in Heidelberg were just the loveliest, friendliest people I have ever met, everyone was so kind and happy, far from the stereotypes. Even though we tried to speak German with them, upon hearing us speak French, every single person tried to converse with us in our language. I felt so welcome there, it was amazing!

So everyone with a notorious hate towards one of his neigbour countries, come take a look and think twice.

    I'm Mexican and I have been to France and Germany many times because my cousin married a French guy and I had a German girlfriend for many years. I think cliches do exist but they disappear as easily as they appear. I found Germans a bit more aloof than French but I attended several meetings and big family parties in Hannover and in a little town some kilometres away. People were very jolly and open. As soon as an "uncle” knew I was Mexican, he wanted to drink tequila shots with me. I felt warmly welcome by him and the rest of the family. In France, especially in Paris, I've never met anyone unfriendly to me, even though many people say Parisians are rude. I've found French and Germans to have many things in common with Mexicans, incredible and it may seem, but some other things are perfectly distinct, like the French playing accordion and singing in Place d'Italie on Sunday or Germans not crossing the street if a green ampelman doesn't tell them to do so.

    Je suis français, ayant vécu 4 ans en Allemagne, à Francfort-sur-le-Main et je peux vous dire que j'ai su déconstruire tout les stéréotypes connus. Je ne sais pas si c'est lié à Francfort, qui est une ville pas forcément représentative de l'Allemagne. Je trouve l'Allemagne beaucoup plus multiculturelle et "ouverte" aux cultures et tolérante vis-à-vis des personnes ne parlant pas leur langue. Les allemands ne sont pas plus ponctuels, ordonnés ou propres, par contre ils sont davantage respectueux des piétons et des cyclistes. Je trouve l'organisation bureaucratique plus ou moins à égalité entre les deux pays. Les Allemands tendent à être plus directs (ils disent les choses clairement, sans tourner autour du pot) et plus pragmatiques (au quotidien et dans la langue, l'allemand n'a pas la même finesse du détail à la française). Les allemands râlent comme les français, mais moins officiellement et ouvertement. Ils n'ont pas la culture de la manifestation et de la protestation qu'ont les français.
    Je trouve que les allemands et les personnes vivant en Allemagne savent profiter de la vie tout aussi bien que les français, les terrasses d'Eiscafé et les parcs ne désemplissent pas aux beaux jours.
    L'éducation allemande est moins stricte et bien plus basée sur la confiance et la valorisation des enfants. Les enfants allemands sont autonomes plus jeunes qu'en France.
    De manière générale je trouvais les relations plus apaisées. Il est très rare d'assister à des scènes de dispute dans la rue. Le climat politique et social tendu reste davantage palpable en France qu'en Allemagne.
    Il est plus difficile de briser la glace en Allemagne car ils tiennent à maintenir une certaine distance sociale et de manière générale quand on ne les connait pas, ils tendent à être froid alors que les français (du sud particulièrement) sont bien plus bavards et n'ont pas de soucis pour le smalltalk, même sans connaître la personne.

Pour le reste aussi, moyen d'accord. En plus ma mère est allemande donc j'ai eu l'occasion de comparer souvent. Il suffit de voir la tête des Allemands quand tu traverses au rouge pour voir que si, ils sont plus respectueux des règles, c'est pas un mythe. D'accord avec toi pour les relations sociales en revanche. Ils ont une culture de la négociation et du compromis plutôt que de manifester et faire la grève tous les 4 matins.

    Very interesting! The sex story is really funny 😄 wasn’t expecting that. As an Indian who traveled around Europe and encountered both Germans and French. I found both equally friendly but I feel Germans are more nicer and friendlier to me than French people. I find French guys are more talkative and show more emotions than German guys but surprisingly i found French girls more uptight and hard to chat with than the German girls. I met many German girls who were so nice to me and were very kind enough to show me around the towns in Germany and Austria. Maybe it’s the language barrier or maybe French girls aren’t used to interacting with Indians. But it doesn’t mean French people aren’t any less than Germans. Just my opinion.

Gisele Bundchen is a Brazilian with German ancestry and this should win more brownie points in Germany. 😀 India has pretty negative image in Germany thanks to poverty, overpopulation and different culture. I interacted with many people from different European countries including the Germans and French people and most of them are quite ignorant about India. I guess ignorance comes with negative views.

    Une fois, je suis allée en Allemagne avec les autres élèves du cours d'allemand pour une sorte de stage (le projet Praxis). On y allait en train et il fallait changer de gare à Paris. La prof d'allemand m'accompagnait car j'étais en fauteuil, elle a demandé à des gens de nous aider et ils nous ont envoyées balader. Alors que quand je suis partie en voyage en Bavière avec ma mère et mon frère, on est allés à un musée à Nuremberg et un homme à l'entrée a vu que j'étais en fauteuil et il nous a tout de suite conduit à monte-charge. Les rues ne sont peut-être pas adaptées (c'est quand même une cité médiévale) mais au moins, les gens aident volontiers les autres et ils sont respectueux.

On est plus proches qu'on ne le croit ou qu'on ne veut bien le croire. Cultures germanique et latine sont des catégories qui ont l'avantage de rassurer mais l'inconvénient de diviser. Et qui sont de moins en moins pertinentes. N'oublions pas qu'on vit dans une société de plus en plus globalisée...

      On pourrait rajouter que les allemands sont nos cousins « germains » car nous avons le même grand-père ( Charlemagne / Karl der.

Du coup on peut dire aussi que les italiens, les espagnols et les portugais sont aussi nos cousins. Pour les anglais , c’est le contraire de nous : leur père était Franco-normand mais leur mère était saxonne donc c’est pour cela qu’ils parlent une langue germanique : mais du coup nous sommes doublement cousins avec eux non?

    @ornithorynquerouge6211 Před 4 lety +18

    Ayant vécu longtemps en Allemagne et en France, j’ai trouvé cette vidéo très intéressante. Je suis assez d’accord sur certains points comme le fait que les Allemands sont plus organisés puisque le manque d’organisation en France, (pour par exemple des inscriptions dans des établissements scolaires, l’assurance, des organisations d’évènements...) m’avait vraiment un peu choquée quand j’étais arrivée ici, personne n’avait l’air au courant de comment tout fonctionnait, même les personnes du domaine en question. Mais au contraire de ce que disent certains, je trouve que justement, les français sont beaucoup plus strictes et donnent plus d’importance aux règles. J’ai l’impression qu’on donne plus de liberté aux gens en Allemagne parce qu’on reconnaît que tout le monde connaît les limites (comme disait la dame pour la vitesse). Quelqu’un d’autre l’a déjà dit aussi mais j’étais aussi un peu déçue par la hiérarchisation en France. J’aimais vraiment beaucoup le fait que les rapports avec les professeurs par exemple soient tellement plus détendus. Pareil pour le système éducatif d’ailleurs, arrivée en France, tout était plus stricte et le rythme beaucoup plus intense, je ressentais tout de suite nettement plus de pression. Autre chose qui m’a étonné dans la vidéo est le fait que les allemands étaient décrits comme froids aux premiers abords. Pour moi c’était encore une fois l’inverse, même si j’ai vite remarqué que les deux étaient très gentils et ouverts, j’avais toujours l’impression au premier contact que les français étaient un peu plus distants et en général un peu moins ouverts d’esprit et avenants. Ce qui m’a marqué surtout c’est (comme évoqué dans la vidéo également) l’individualisme des français, qui contrastait vraiment le sentiment de communauté que j’avais en Allemagne. J’avais passé beaucoup de temps là-bas à des événements où énormément de personnes qui ne se connaissaient pas forcément se réunissaient pour passer du temps ensemble et créer des liens et je ne retrouve pas vraiment ça ici, c’est un peu comme si tout le monde faisait juste ça de son côté avec ceux qu’ils connaîssaient déjà. Pour la nourriture en revanche je trouve que trop d’importance est donnée à ce point. Avant de déménager j’appréhendais beaucoup à partir de ce que j’avais entendu de la France. Mais sauf peut-être les spécialités de chaque pays, ce qui est consommé au quotidien est vraiment presque identique d’après mon expérience. Même le petit déjeuner, je pense que c’est plus subjectif que propre au pays, je connais autant d’allemands que français qui mangent salé le matin. Bref ce que j’ai dit sonnait peut-être un peu comme si je crachais sur les français, c’est pas le cas, j’aime beaucoup les deux et suis d’accord avec ce que j’ai beaucoup vu dans les commentaires, c’est-à-dire qu’hormis quelques points, en fait ils se ressemblent énormément, ont forcément des côtés négatifs tous les deux mais sont en général des pays et personnes très agréables qui gagneraient à se rapprocher.

    As a German, I agree with almost all of these stereotypes :D I like the French for being less organised and passionate about everything they do. Every French person I've met so far has been super nice and polite. As a teacher, I think the French school system could be reformed, not because education is bad, but because learning methods seem really strict. The hierarchy is also something that I can't quite get used to. We don't exactly call our professors by their first name over here but titles seem to be much more important in France. Overall, we know that you have better wine, better food and a language that is more pleasing to the ear :))

      France has been organized by Napoleon and Charles de Gaulle, so basically two military men. So the country is heavily hierarchical. Not only in school, everywhere. I guess that may be an explanation why French people like to take some freedom with the rules sometimes because otherwise it becomes suffocating.

      He makes a very light reference to it, but he does not directly talk about the world wars.

      Même si les 2 guerres sont des passages important dans l'histoire commune des 2 pays, je ne vois pas pourquoi ils parleraient de la guerre quand la question est "quelles sont les différences entre les allemands et les français (en 2020) ?"

    Allemand et humour... C'est un très bon exemple pour faire comprendre le sens du mot "oxymore"... (à l'inverse des Anglais...)

    so I can't produce a hole french sentence but I understand nearly everything because it's written there too, I like the video stile. I think I will listen now oftener to french and try to understand more
