Overheard: Germany

Friday, September 26, 2025

I was recently in Germany for a few weeks, travelling from town to town and city to city with a DeutschlandTicket. Along the way, I heard a few choice phrases in English. And here they are.

  • It's certainly different here, isn't it? A different feel... still friendly!

  • And what about the client change request? What about that?!

  • There was a woman going from here to Hamburg, that's two hundred euro!

  • They gave me the freedom to do whatever I want, so that's what I did.

  • I do not have a print-out but you can have a screenshot.

  • You want to go to Five Men or should I say Five Guys?

  • It's a big no no yo!
