The customs that are followed in Germany

german customs

Beer festivals, a very German custom.

Here are some very useful customs if we plan to travel to Germany:

  • Breakfasts are usually copious and high in calories (sausages, cheese, sausage, rolls with honey ...)
  • Beer It is the national drink. Especially well known are some beer drinking festivals.
  • The main meal is lunch
  • Dinner is very light and is usually eaten at approximately 19:XNUMX p.m.
  • Society tends to take advantage of the night hours to attend different shows, the best known are the operas of Deutsche Oper Berlin, the National Theater of Munich and Hamburgische
  • There is a very important festive tradition, the carnival in Cologne, Bonn, Mainz and Düsseldorf stand out. Fairs are held in spring and fall, some only on weekends
  • In many public toilets there are signs begging the gentlemen to urinate while sitting. It is a very widespread custom to avoid splashing

  • The holidays they do not guarantee the chaos as in Spain. The usual thing is that it is a meeting, in which dancing is not part of the plans, just chatting and having a good time is enough
  • The canning jars are rinsed and the containers are left shiny as a step prior to disposal. Garbage is collected every 15 or 30 days and you have to avoid bad smells at all costs.
  • The Germans extend their hand just enough for you to shake it briefly. Two kisses as a greeting are strident and out of place.
  • When talking, it is not advisable to get too close, or touch the interlocutor while talking, much less a pat on the back as a greeting or farewell.

Important points in Germany

  • Do not disturb with loud music
  • If we are invited, do not delay more than 15 minutes or show up before the time
  • If they invite us to bring a gift. It is considered at best not sociable and at worst as a great lack of education to arrive empty-handed
  • When answering the phone we will use our last name, for example: Mayer gunten Tag or Schmidt gute Morgen. Reply with a simple hello! or say !, is considered as a lack of education garrafal
  • Diplomacy. We will get to the point at all times
  • Racist jokes. There is a very radical prejudice after the time of Nazism

all these german customs They will undoubtedly be of great help if you are planning a trip to Germany.

    They are right about righteousness, they are responsible, hardworking, and good people. I had the opportunity to meet some of them in my city and even though they are from the same country, some behave like barbarians, they are, (abrupt), some are between their customs and what the new world offers and the youngest enjoy When there is a certain confidence in everyday life, they give you an incredible smile, they are nice people. As friends they are trustworthy, as a couple they look at you with admiration, pleasure, joy, they really show you what they feel for you although not with words with deeds, with a smile that lights up their face and makes you feel like the most important person in the world. earth and especially in his life. Greetings.

    It is incredible how there are people who despise being of one nationality to "be born again of another" is really a shame, where is the national pride, the love for the country? As for the Germans, I tell them: not all of them are cute, there are Germans who are ugly and in my opinion they are cold, but look at their greeting, they keep a lot of distance between them and with the women they wave with their hands, they almost never give hugs or kisses, those from Bonn are usually very quiet and do not express their feelings much. I am Argentine (Cordovan), I am proud to be and I love Argentina, beyond that we must change some things, my country would not change it for anything, you will see that if you go to Germany you will miss the warmth of its people, being close , to receive a kiss and a hug, their meals and customs.

    I have a doubt.

    The text says: "Society tends to take advantage of the night hours to go to different shows, the best known are the operas of Deutsche Oper Berlin, the National Theater in Munich and Hamburgische." Can 80 million fit? and then….
    After reading this, I wonder where those who spend the summer in Mallorca are from, because it is far from what was seen above.

    In short, Germans, civilized people. Greetings to all.

    It seems to me that COLOMBIA is a country rich in people who are humble and risky in front of people who measure up to everything who always have a smile on their face despite the problems we are experiencing ii as foreigners say. COLOMBIA IS A WONDERFUL RISK

    Well, my best friend is German, he came to my country on an exchange and it was a long time since he was returned, and we communicate through the internet, and if there is something he hates, it is razist jokes, according to him it is very rude to do a rzista joke there! once I told him a Nazi and he laughed angrily, that that was not chuiste and at one point he told me "do you think I'm proud that my country was the cause of the war" I never said anything about Razism again, and there in Germany There are more Turks than Germans for example, and they are not reasonists there, I wanted to make it clear!

    It is normal that for a Mexican rat like you, the Germans are the superior. For the rest of the civilized Europeans, no. If it weren't for the Marshall Plan and for the facilities and patience that Europe has had to make them prosper, they wouldn't be so superior as to seem like it to you, wet backs

    What bad taste your comment

         goebles said

      I do not think it is in bad taste, at least that of the Spanish pigs has passed longer than that of the Germans, but it is what affects her, the atrocities that the Spanish did in her country.
      Grudge is not a good travel companion but I guess I'm not the best one to say it.
      I am more struck by how dazzled she is by Germany
      In short, each country is a world.

      Mercedes said

    Well, I met a German on the internet, he is very handsome and educated, he tells me about his son and what he shares with him, his son is 9 years old and he told me that he is coming for Easter to meet me and my children. I am Dominican and he is very romantic, he says that I am his queen and he sends me the messages in Spanish he does not write it very well but I understand

      If we already know the story, Germans are the cutest. Blah blah blah.
      Have you ever said something we don't know!
      Someone change the record!
      thanks, this one already smells.

      colin said

    Like everyone, people are different, no matter what country they are from, it does not mean that Germans are the best because we despise our own brothers and ourselves, it is common for many women to want to marry someone beautiful and different even if this means shock of their culture and their own existence that they do not understand out of ignorance, not to mention that there is always some idiot who thanks to the cybernetic media we do not know who the hell he is and are more courageous by despising the opinion or the thought of each one, people incapable of understanding their own environment and they become ignorant to the outside, obviously they are rats that do not leave their country and therefore do not know another culture and have not visited other lands, they do not know beyond the dirt they have on their nails. I have visited many countries and each country has its lángaros, and their women (not to discriminate) have kind people and very noble people too, capable of understanding the foreigner and learning from him without leaving their roots.
    I invite all people not to be despots with their similar apes, since we are all the same, we eat and sleep and yes, we also do the bathroom by the same means, although due to the difference in each country we behave differently and not girls, Just as they can have a beautiful German boy by their side, they can also win a cold, respectful and shy man who will always have the scheduled time to intimidate his partner and yes, foreigners like Indian women as they would say out there, But because they find them exotic, daring and they adore their skin color, which makes them beautiful and different, something that men cannot boast about, on the contrary, it is very little known that a German woman intimidates a foreigner, for that they lack attractiveness ( What a misfortune for men who do not have an iota to save them) the foreigner also despises the woman who does not love her country does not respect its values, that, that is what they do not like when they meet many women Latinas who don't even know where they stand or how prepared they are. The one who is lucky and has married a foreigner has done so with cunning and not all have that grace.

    Do not materialize and know your country, understand it to be able to teach the German the beauty of each culture only then, you can conquer a German ...

         Clarification to Colin said

      I'm sorry I didn't really know what you say, when you say that German girls are very rare to see them receptive to foreigners, obviously in your country they are not going to do it, they know what awaits them (Comments, family, friends, etc. ), let's say you have them tied short (although it sounds a bit bad).
      You should see them when they go abroad on vacation and drink a little or even without drinking, how many babies will have been born or not between Germans and foreigners on the nights of wild festival.
      You know alcohol helps loosen hair and other things.

    Honey, don't be so superficial, hide a little, people are more than just a pretty face or a full wallet.
    And if Germany is so cool because so many Germans are going to live abroad.
    Study the history of Germany and then tell me if you think the same.
    bye valeria a big kiss.

      thor said

    what? What? What happened? What are you telling me?

      wotam said

    It is sad what you say but, one thing is that they create the superior race, the Aryans how they already demonstrated to the world at the time and another is that they are.
    The girls who speak with such obvious superficiality I suppose they must be young girls (13 to 18 years old) without wanting to offend anyone, but just read them.
    Many girls are like this, how many times have we seen them faint before the famous man on duty, see their pathetic fits of hysterics before them, or see their underwear thrown at them without any shame (I suppose it must be their age), in short, while do not step on the little monkey, I guess we can find a song in the piñacos,
    They are things that leave anyone stunned, even the most liberal of liberals.
    Oh Lord! What did we do to deserve this?

      wotam said

    How sad for what you say it seems that you do not love your country very much.
    what a pity!

    Don't worry, we all have the right to give our version, if we only kept yours, we would live in a deception, don't you think?
    What happened happened, but it is necessary to remember it so that it does not happen again, although we all know that all western countries have stunk, stink and will stink with centuries of slavery and other savagery they have done, they want to forget to hide it, but there is than remembering it, not everyone knows it or wants to know it.

    Posscript if it is not the classic wedding with Germans, or that Germans are the most handsome, or that we all want to be German.

      Incredible said

    I DO NOT want to throw the girls on top of me that we already know that they can be very cruel when they want but:
    In my modest opinion I think that feminism in the countries where you move has taken full control. The girls are superior to the men in their countries are excessively superficial example:
    At least almost 20 cases of girls (I want to think that they are girls because if they were women it would have a crime) or they want to be German, or they want to marry Germans, and at least 30 saying that Germans are the cutest.
    Instead boys who say the same about German girls 2 cases.
    The men of these countries are being stepped on, we have to be good but not stupid.
    Warning for sailors that we believe that the Germans are not going to gather among themselves, and they are not going to treat foreigners as second-class citizens?
    We have to remember who were the ones who invented the pure race, and the atrocities they did precisely because of the race issue.
    We must remember the 6 million Jews who led to their death in the most vile and cowardly way that can be done.
    We truly believe that in sixty years they have changed so much.
    Make no mistake, ladies, they are people who, from a young age, put the race roll on fire in their brains.
    Let's not generalize, but isn't it better known bad than good to know?
    All this seems to me to be a very great betrayal of women towards the good men of their respective countries.
    How predictable are women.
    How sad, what poorly concealed superficiality.
    Gross.
    Sorry if I have bothered someone, I am not the favorite of the girls but when I read things like this I do not know if deep down it is a blessing.

         franc said

      Also in Spain we officially followed the same suit as Germany, fascism was like that, and we left many Spanish Jews (Sephardim) lying around. We painted little in the war but what we paint we paint badly.
      In the end we were not so different.

    With how big Argentina is, and with all the Argentines out there, what need is there to complicate yourself with a German?
    The German dream is not as beautiful as it is trying to paint here.

      Long live the racial crossing said

    You have the right to do what you like, but I don't think Chileans are very proud of you. (But nowadays everyone looks out of their ass, you didn't have to be the exception)
    And when you say that you are happy, what are you going to say in a place like this?
    That for 90% of the people Germany is paradise.
    If you don't mind, let's not get God into this, obviously you wanted it, because you're worth it.
    Lucky you are still just as happy.
    I hope I have not bothered you.

    I want to go to Germany because there is the volsk waguen factory and I love these cars

         basilis said

      It is good that we like cars, but think that this company that will exploit thousands of people must have their lousy factories in several countries, by that rule of three you can go to another country where people have their feet on the ground and not are pushy or racist.

      Jojo said

    Yes, Germany has a complicated history, but it is very important that you do not have a prejudice against the Germans! It's not that all people in Germany are "pushy or racist." There are many arguments for traveling in Germany because it is a country with a wonderful landscape and very friendly people - as in all countries.

      ruben said

    sometime i would like to go to germany because it is one of the best in the world and it has very cool customs sometime i will go to that country to visit

         basilis said

      Jojo I suppose you are right, not all Germans are racists, but with your history and knowing that you were brainwashed when you were little, understand that even today there are people who hear the word racism and think of Germans, there will be people who do not. You can avoid especially if they are from Israel.
      Even though German guys pee sitting down, it doesn't make them better people.

         Mengele said

      Ruben is a good choice if you want to feel like a second-class citizen.
      Cool German customs:
      -Piss sitting in the toilet bowl.
      -Swallow beer in large quantities
      -Have a square head (That is, obey orders at any price, e.g. you tell them to kill six million Jews, as many Jitanos and gays, and they go and do it and if you dare to ask them, why? they only carried out orders
      Anyway, Ruben, good for you, if Germany is one of the best countries in the world, I don't even want to think how the worst will be.
      Between you and me, Ruben changes, changes his mind and changes the country of the visit.
      I am sorry if I have offended someone I have no prejudices but we must not forget, especially so that certain savagery is not repeated, I know that in Germany there are also good people. FUCK, MEAN SITTING, HOW THEY ARE NOT GOING TO BE GOOD PEOPLE!

      Mario said

    I have lived in Germany for some time and one thing that strikes me is the tendency of some Germans who in combined groups (foreigners and Germans) have more respect and consideration for comments from foreigners. You feel more comfortable and in fact they are more open. But once they are among them and only figures as a minority in the conversation, the shadow of Teutonic hegemony begins to cover you. That consideration is no longer perceived and it is as if you do not exist. You can have a heart attack or an epileptic fit and they keep talking. Especially when the topic deals with figures or dates or topics where accuracy inspires in their conversation a tremendous competition among themselves to know who knows more. And of course you, as a Spanish speaker, get bored beautifully. Tip: circle of friends ONLY combined NEVER 100% German.
    PS .: It is nothing negative, I love this country in many other things 🙂
