Top ten reasons not to live in Germany:
The YouTuber, 'World According to Briggs' 
has uploaded a video with exactly that title.
So I'd say let's watch together
and I'll let you know
what I think about it as a German,
which of the mentioned points are true
and which ones are simply wrong
Hallo, Servus and welcome back to my YouTube channel.
My Name is Felicia and I'm a German who has been living off and on in Cincinnati, Ohio since 2016.
Top ten reasons not to live in Germany:
That's the title of a video
that was uploaded just last week
on a YouTube channel called World According to Briggs.
So of course,
I had to watch it and see if I agree with those 10 reasons for as I've mentioned in my personal Q&A video 2 weeks ago,
there definitely are things that I don't like about Germany
but then again none of those things are the reason
that I don't live there right now.

Les dix principales raisons de ne pas vivre en Allemagne:
Le YouTuber, «Le monde selon Briggs» 
a mis en ligne une vidéo avec exactement ce titre.
Je dirais donc regardons ensemble
et je vous ferai savoir
ce que j'en pense en tant qu'allemande,
lesquels des points mentionnés sont vrais
et lesquels sont tout simplement faux
Bonjour, Servus et bienvenue sur ma chaîne YouTube.
Je m'appelle Felicia et je suis une Allemande qui vit à Cincinnati, Ohio depuis 2016.
Les dix principales raisons de ne pas vivre en Allemagne:
C'est le titre d'une vidéo
qui a été publiée la semaine dernière
sur une chaîne YouTube appelée World According to Briggs.
Donc bien sur,
J'ai dû la regarder et voir si j'étais d'accord avec ces 10 raisons, comme je l'ai mentionné dans ma vidéo Q&R personnelle il y a 2 semaines,
il y a certainement des choses que je n'aime pas en Allemagne
mais là encore, aucune de ces choses n'est la raison pour laquelle je ne vis pas là-bas en ce moment.

English: 
For those of you who don't know this
I'm from Munich, which is in Bavaria,
so the south of Germany
I was born and raised there and I also went to college there,
so I didn't leave Germany until I was 22.
Initially I only came to the US for an exchange semester
but then I ended up coming back
and now I'm here as a permanent resident
but I'm not in the U.S because Germany is an awful place in which to live, it absolutely isn't,
I'm here because I personally wanted some change
and because I love the American culture
but who knows? Maybe this person really did find 10 reasons with which I can agree,
on why moving to Germany is not the best idea.
Let's just watch the video together
and I'll share my thoughts with you.
Ok, so you can't really see that
but I have my laptop right here.
So I'm going to be watching it
down here and I'll put it for you right here.
Ok before I hit play,
let's start with the thumbnail.
I don't know what this woman is wearing, 
but it's definitely not traditional German clothing.

French: 
Pour ceux d'entre vous qui ne le savent pas
Je viens de Munich, qui est en Bavière,
donc le sud de l'Allemagne
Je suis née et j'ai grandi là-bas et je suis aussi allé à l'université là-bas,
donc je n'ai pas quitté l'Allemagne avant mes 22 ans.
Au départ, je ne suis venu aux États-Unis que pour un semestre d'échange
mais j'ai fini par revenir et maintenant je suis ici en tant que résidente permanente
mais je ne suis pas aux États-Unis parce que l'Allemagne est un endroit horrible pour vivre, ce n'est absolument pas le cas,
Je suis ici parce que je voulais personnellement un changement
et parce que j'aime la culture américaine
mais qui sait? Peut-être que cette personne a vraiment trouvé 10 raisons avec lesquelles je suis d'accord,
sur pourquoi déménager en Allemagne n'est pas la meilleure idée.
Regardons la vidéo ensemble
et je partagerai mes pensées avec vous.
Ok, donc tu ne peux pas vraiment voir ça
mais j'ai mon ordinateur portable ici.
Je vais donc le regarder
ici et je vais le mettre ici pour vous.
Ok avant de lancer la vidéo, commençons par la miniature.
Je ne sais pas ce que porte cette femme, 
mais ce ne sont certainement pas des vêtements allemands traditionnels.

English: 
I think the pants are supposed to look like leather trousers,
Lederhosen, like we say,
but they're definitely not,
looks more like a Halloween costume to me, but
ok, thumbnails aren't always about accuracy.
[Briggs] What is going on everyone -
welcome back to The World According to Briggs,
I hope you're all being safe and healthy,
[Briggs]
Remember, we're all in this together take care of yourself and each other now. Let's get back to roasting places:
[Briggs]
[Briggs] This is an international video.
Today we are looking at Deutschland/Germany.
[Briggs] Germany is probably one of the top 10 
most historic countries on the planet.
[Briggs] They have a lot of history,
both good and a whole bunch of bad.
[Briggs] The good news is they've put most of that bad
about 70 years in the rearview mirror.
[Briggs] Germany is now an economic power with a great Oktoberfest. The people...
I hate it when someone says
we have a great Oktoberfest.
We have the Oktoberfest
Oktoberfest is not a franchise,
the real the Oktoberfest takes place in Munich,
but oh well.
[Briggs] ...people are wonderfully welcoming
and it's a great place to visit

French: 
Je pense que le pantalon est censé ressembler à un pantalon en cuir,
Lederhosen, comme on dit,
mais ils ne sont certainement pas traditionnels, ça ressemble plus à un costume d'Halloween pour moi, mais
ok, les miniatures ne font pas toujours dans la précision.
[Briggs] Que se passe-t-il pour tout le monde -
bienvenue dans le monde selon Briggs,
J'espère que vous êtes tous en sécurité et en bonne santé,
[Briggs]
N'oubliez pas que nous sommes tous dans le même bateau, prenez soin de vous et des autres maintenant. Revenons à nos critiques habituelles:
[Briggs]
[Briggs] Ceci est une vidéo internationale.
Aujourd'hui, nous regardons Deutschland / Allemagne.
[Briggs] L'Allemagne fait probablement partie du top 10 des pays les plus historiques de la planète.
[Briggs] Ils ont beaucoup d'histoire,
à la fois bon et tout un tas de mauvais.
[Briggs] La bonne nouvelle, c'est qu'ils ont mis la plupart de cette mauvaise histoire
environ 70 ans dans le rétroviseur.
[Briggs] L'Allemagne est maintenant une puissance économique avec une grande Oktoberfest. Les personnes...
Je déteste quand quelqu'un dit que
nous avons une grande Oktoberfest.
Nous avons l'Oktoberfest
Oktoberfest n'est pas une franchise,
la vraie Oktoberfest a lieu à Munich,
Mais oh tant pis.
[Briggs] ... les gens sont merveilleusement accueillants et c'est un super endroit à visiter

[Briggs] ...people are wonderfully welcoming

English: 
but like every location on this planet it has some problems
[Briggs]
[Briggs] and that's what we're looking at today; 
things you might need to know before you visit, Germany.
[Briggs] Some of these things might make you not want to visit them, some of them you just probably want to be aware of.
So let's get started:
[Briggs]
Number 10 - high-crime:
[Briggs]
[Briggs] Germany has seen a rise in crime in the last five years.
The country has an open-door policy
[Briggs] which means anyone can wander into the country whenever they want they've learned
[Briggs] this leads to more crime. When you can't track people down they tend to do stupid stuff.
[Briggs] The crime rate in Germany for 2018 was 6,710 crimes for every 100,000 residents.
[Briggs] That's up from 4200 per every 100,000 residents in 2014 and when the 2020 numbers come out
they're looking to be higher.
[Briggs] There was a sharp increase in the number of murders committed in Germany with 901 murders recorded in 2018
[Briggs] That's the highest since 2000
when there was 930.
[Briggs] Berlin, Hamburg and Bremen had 
the highest regional crime rates
in the whole country.
[Briggs] Ask any German

French: 
mais comme chaque endroit sur cette planète, il y a des problèmes
[Briggs]
[Briggs] et c'est ce que nous examinons aujourd'hui; 
choses que vous pourriez avoir besoin de savoir avant votre visite, en Allemagne.
[Briggs] Certaines de ces choses peuvent vous faire ne pas vouloir les visiter, d'autres dont vous voulez probablement juste être au courant.
Alors, commençons:
[Briggs]
Numéro 10 - taux de criminalité élevé:
[Briggs]
[Briggs] L'Allemagne a connu une augmentation de la criminalité au cours des cinq dernières années.
Le pays a une politique de porte ouverte
[Briggs] ce qui veut dire que n'importe qui peut se promener dans le pays quand il veut, il faut savoir que
[Briggs] cela mène à plus de criminalité. Quand vous ne pouvez pas traquer les gens, ils ont tendance à faire des trucs stupides.
[Briggs] Le taux de criminalité en Allemagne en 2018 était de 6 710 crimes pour 100 000 habitants.
[Briggs] C'est en hausse par rapport à 4200 pour 100 000 habitants en 2014 et lorsque les chiffres de 2020 sortiront ils seront sans aucun doute plus élevés.
[Briggs] Il y a eu une forte augmentation du nombre de meurtres commis en Allemagne avec 901 meurtres enregistrés en 2018
[Briggs] C'est le plus haut depuis 2000, avec 930 meurtres enregistrés.
[Briggs] Berlin, Hambourg et Brême avaient 
les taux de criminalité régionaux les plus élevés
dans tout le pays.
[Briggs] Demandez à n'importe quel Allemand

things you might need to know before you visit, Germany.

[Briggs] Ask any German

French: 
[Briggs] comme je l'ai fait et ils vous diront que tout a changé en 2015, à peu près en même temps que des centaines de milliers
de réfugiés ont commencé à entrer dans le pays
[Briggs]
originaires de la Syrie déchirée par la guerre et d'autres endroits comme ça.
[Briggs]
[Briggs]
Le nombre de meurtres a augmenté de 14,6% et l'utilisation non autorisée du corps d'une autre personne a augmenté de 8%.
[Briggs] Vous savez ce que c'est?
Je ne peux pas le dire parce que je ne veux pas me faire démonétiser.
D'accord, arrêtons-nous ici parce que c'était déjà beaucoup d'informations
et j'ai beaucoup à dire à ce sujet
parce que beaucoup de ces choses sont tout simplement erronées.
Revenons donc en arrière et passons en revue ensemble:
Je vais mentionner quelques chiffres
et juste pour vous donner une idée de à quel stade nous en sommes,
L'Allemagne est généralement considérée comme un pays très sûr par rapport à d'autres pays du monde.
Un indicateur de cela est souvent le taux de meurtres et en 2018
il y a eu 1,1 meurtre pour 100 000 habitants en Allemagne
alors qu'il y en avait cinq pour 100 000 habitants aux États-Unis,
donc presque cinq fois plus qu'en Allemagne.

English: 
[Briggs] like I did and they will tell you it all changed in 2015, about the same time hundreds of thousands
of refugees began entering the country
[Briggs]
from war-torn Syria and other places like that.
[Briggs]
[Briggs]
The number of murders increased by 14.6% and the unauthorized use of another person's body rose by 8%.
[Briggs] You know what that is?
I can't say it because I don't want to get demonetised.
Okay, let's stop right here because this was already a whole lot of information
and I have a lot to say about this
because a lot of these things are just flat-out wrong.
So let's back up and go over it together:
I'm going to mention some numbers
and just to give you guys an idea of what ballpark we're in,
Germany is generally considered a very safe country compared to other countries in the world.
An indicator for this is often the murder rate and in 2018
there were 1.1 murders per 100,000 residents in Germany
while there were five per 100,000 residents in the US,
so almost five times as many as in Germany.

English: 
[Briggs] Number 10 - high crime: Germany has seen a rise in crime in the last five years
Okay, that's not true,
since he's talking about the statistics from 2018
5 years would mean
that there was a rise in crime since 2013
and that's not the case as you can see here.
To be fair, the crime rates did go up a little bit after 2013, so in 2014, 15 and 16 it was rising
but, then right in 2017,
it went below the numbers from 2013
and has been decreasing ever since.
[Briggs] The country has an open-door policy
which means anyone can
wander into the country whenever they want.
[Briggs] They've learned
[Briggs] this leads to more crime.
Okay. Germany does not have an open door policy in that sense that people can literally just walk
into our country and stay if they want to.
We have taken in a lot of refugees, 
especially in 2015,
which I'm assuming that's what Briggs is referring to here,
but those people had refugee status.
It's not like anyone can just come to Germany
and stay there forever if they want to.
It's definitely easier to immigrate to Germany legally
than immigrating to the U.S

French: 
[Briggs] Numéro 10 - criminalité élevée: l'Allemagne a connu une augmentation de la criminalité au cours des cinq dernières années
D'accord, ce n'est pas vrai,
puisqu'il parle des statistiques de 2018
5 ans signifieraient
qu'il y avait une augmentation de la criminalité depuis 2013
et ce n'est pas le cas comme vous pouvez le voir ici.
Pour être juste, le taux de criminalité a augmenté un peu après 2013, donc en 2014, 15 et 16, il augmentait
mais bon en 2017,
il est descendu en dessous des chiffres de 2013
et a diminué depuis.
[Briggs] Le pays a une politique de porte ouverte
ce qui signifie que tout le monde peut
errer dans le pays comme et quand ils veulent.
[Briggs] Ils ont appris
[Briggs] cela mène à plus de criminalité.
D'accord. L'Allemagne n'a pas de politique de porte ouverte en ce sens que les gens peuvent littéralement marcher
dans notre pays et rester s'ils le souhaitent.
Nous avons accueilli beaucoup de réfugiés, 
surtout en 2015,
ce que je suppose que c'est ce à quoi Briggs fait référence ici,
mais ces personnes avaient le statut de réfugié.
Ce n'est pas comme si n'importe qui pouvait venir en Allemagne
et y rester pour toujours s'il le voulait.
Il est certainement plus facile d'immigrer légalement en Allemagne
que d'immigrer aux États-Unis

English: 
but it's not like there aren't any rules.
[Briggs] When you can't track people down, 
they tend to do stupid stuff. The crime rate in Ger...
You can track people down in Germany actually.
Other than in the U.S
where there's a census every 10 years
where people voluntarily submit information
about where they live and other personal information,
residents in Germany actually have to be registered
at the registration office.
If you move to a new place,
even if it's within the same city,
you have to go there
and register your new address by law
and refugees too, are registered there with an address.
[Briggs] The crime rate in Germany for 2018
was 6,710 crimes for every 100,000 residents.
[Briggs] That's up from 4,200 per every 100,000 residents in 2014.
Okay. That's just a wrong number.
The first one is correct,
there were 6,710 crimes per 100,000 residents in 2018

English: 
but it's not like there aren't any rules.
[Briggs] When you can't track people down,

Okay. That's just a wrong number.
The first one is correct,
there were 6,710 crimes per 100,000 residents in 2018

French: 
mais ce n'est pas comme s'il n'y avait pas de règles.
[Briggs] Quand vous ne pouvez pas traquer les gens, 
ils ont tendance à faire des trucs stupides. Le taux de criminalité en Allemagne ...
En fait, vous pouvez retrouver des gens en Allemagne.
Aux États-Unis
où il y a un recensement tous les 10 ans
où les gens soumettent volontairement des informations
l'endroit où ils vivent et d'autres informations personnelles,
les résidents en Allemagne doivent être enregistrés
au bureau d'enregistrement.
Si vous déménagez dans un nouvel endroit,
même si c'est dans la même ville,
vous devez y aller
et enregistrer votre nouvelle adresse par la loi
et les réfugiés aussi y sont enregistrés avec une adresse.
[Briggs] Le taux de criminalité en Allemagne pour 2018
était de 6 710 crimes pour 100 000 habitants.
[Briggs] C'est en hausse par rapport à 4 200 pour 100 000 habitants en 2014.
D'accord. C'est juste un mauvais numéro.
Le premier est correct,
il y a eu 6710 crimes pour 100000 habitants en 2018

English: 
but then he's saying that it went up from 2014, which is the year before the refugee crisis and that's wrong.
He says that there were 4,200 crimes
per 100,000 residents
in 2014
but it was actually 7,530.
So it actually went down compared to 2014.
I'm not sure where ho got that wrong number from, 4,200, because I couldn't find that anywhere.
[Briggs] And when the 2020 numbers come out.
They're looking to be higher there was...
That's wrong again, the crime statistics for 2019
were actually just released this week
so after he published the video
but still, the trend had shown that crime rates have been going down in Germany for years and as expected
in 2019
Germany had 5.43 million crimes in total,
which means the number decreased
by 2.1% compared to 2018
and is the lowest number since 1992.

French: 
mais ensuite il dit que cela a augmenté depuis 2014, qui est l'année avant la crise des réfugiés et c'est faux.
Il dit qu'il y a eu 4 200 crimes
pour 100 000 habitants
en 2014
mais c'était en fait 7 530.
Il a donc baissé par rapport à 2014.
Je ne sais pas d'où vient ce mauvais chiffre, 4 200, parce que je ne l'ai trouvé nulle part.
[Briggs] Et quand les chiffres de 2020 sortiront.
Ils seront sans aucun doute plus élevés, il y avait ...
C'est encore faux, les statistiques de la criminalité pour 2019 ont été publiés cette semaine
donc après qu'il ait publié la vidéo
mais néanmoins, la tendance avait montré que les taux de criminalité diminuaient en Allemagne depuis des années et comme prévu
en 2019
L'Allemagne a enregistré au total 5,43 millions de délits,
ce qui signifie que le nombre a diminué
de 2,1% par rapport à 2018
et c'est le nombre le plus bas depuis 1992.

English: 
but then he's saying that it went up from 2014, which is the year before the refugee crisis and that's wrong.
He says that there were 4,200 crimes

English: 
[Briggs] There was a sharp increase in the number of murders committed in Germany 
with 901 murders recorded in 2018.
That's the highest since 2000 when there was 930. Berl...
Okay - sharp increase:
I'm not sure if I would say it like that.
First, the numbers that he mentioned are the numbers of attempted murders and not the number of people who were actually killed.
I'm obviously not an expert in this field
but I just feel like that the number of attempted murders could vary a little bit from year to year
just depending on how cases are treated in court.
Whereas the number of people who were actually killed is definitely not open for interpretation from year to year
and that number did indeed go up in 2016 and 17
but it was still much lower than in the early 2000s
and for 2019 it's actually the lowest in a very long time
with 245 people killed in total.
[Briggs] Berlin Hamburg and Bremen had the high regional crime rates
in the whole country. Ask any German
[Briggs]
like I did and they will tell you it all changed in 2015
[Briggs]
about the same time hundreds of thousands
[Briggs]
of refugees began entering the country
[Briggs]

English: 
[Briggs] There was a sharp increase in the number of murders committed in Germany

Okay - sharp increase:
I'm not sure if I would say it like that.
First, the numbers that he mentioned are the numbers of attempted murders and not the number of people who were actually killed.
I'm obviously not an expert in this field
but I just feel like that the number of attempted murders could vary a little bit from year to year
just depending on how cases are treated in court.
Whereas the number of people who were actually killed is definitely not open for interpretation from year to year
and that number did indeed go up in 2016 and 17
but it was still much lower than in the early 2000s
and for 2019 it's actually the lowest in a very long time
with 245 people killed in total.
[Briggs] Berlin Hamburg and Bremen had the high regional crime rates
in the whole country. Ask any German
[Briggs]
like I did and they will tell you it all changed in 2015
[Briggs]
about the same time hundreds of thousands
[Briggs]
of refugees began entering the country
[Briggs]

French: 
[Briggs] Il y a eu une forte augmentation du nombre de meurtres commis en Allemagne 
avec 901 meurtres enregistrés en 2018.
C'est le plus haut depuis 2000, quand il y en avait 930. Berl ...
D'accord - forte augmentation:
Je ne sais pas si je dirais ça comme ça.
Premièrement, les chiffres qu'il a mentionnés sont le nombre de tentatives de meurtre et non le nombre de personnes qui ont été tuées.
Je ne suis évidemment pas une experte dans ce domaine
mais j'ai juste l'impression que le nombre de tentatives de meurtre peut varier un peu d'une année à l'autre
juste en fonction de la façon dont les affaires sont traitées devant les tribunaux.
Alors que le nombre de personnes effectivement tuées n'est certainement pas ouvert à l'interprétation d'une année à l'autre
et ce nombre a effectivement augmenté en 2016 et 2017
mais il était encore beaucoup plus bas qu'au début des années 2000
et pour 2019 c'est en fait le plus bas depuis très longtemps
avec 245 personnes tuées au total.
[Briggs] Berlin Hambourg et Brême avaient des taux de criminalité régionaux élevés
dans tout le pays. Demandez à n'importe quel allemand
[Briggs]
comme je l'ai fait et ils vous diront que tout a changé en 2015
[Briggs]
à peu près en même temps que des centaines de milliers
[Briggs]
de réfugiés ont commencé à entrer dans le pays
[Briggs]

English: 
from war-torn Syria and other places like that.
[Briggs] The number of m...
Okay. Well as I just showed you the crime rate did go up a little bit after 2015, that's true.
But from my personal experience,
what I actually observed on the streets in society,
I didn't actually see any more crime personally.
But what I did observe was that
the way that crimes that were committed 
by people who were not German, so like refugees
and other people who emigrated to Germany
were reported in the media that changed a lot.
So again, if you look at the numbers the crime rates did go up a little bit in the years after 2015
but then it went to a new low after that
and is now lower than the crime rates before 2015.
[Briggs] The number of murders increased by 14.6%
and the unauthorized use of another person's body
rose by 8%.
[Briggs] You know what that is?
I can't say it because I don't want to get demonetised.
Okay, I'm not sure what numbers he's referring to here because I couldn't find those but again

originaires de la Syrie déchirée par la guerre et d'autres endroits comme ça.
[Briggs] Le nombre de m ...
D'accord. Eh bien, comme je viens de vous montrer que le taux de criminalité a augmenté un peu après 2015, c'est vrai.
Mais d'après mon expérience personnelle,
ce que j'ai réellement observé dans les rues de la société,
Je n'ai pas vu plus de crime personnellement.
Mais ce que j'ai observé, c'est que
la façon dont les crimes qui ont été commis par des gens qui n'étaient pas allemands, donc comme des réfugiés et d'autres personnes qui ont émigré en Allemagne
ont été rapportés dans les médias qui a beaucoup changé.
Encore une fois, si vous regardez les chiffres, les taux de criminalité ont augmenté un peu au cours des années après 2015
mais il est ensuite passé à un nouveau creux
et est désormais inférieur au taux de criminalité avant 2015.
[Briggs] Le nombre de meurtres a augmenté de 14,6%
et l'utilisation non autorisée du corps d'une autre personne a augmenté de 8%.
[Briggs] Vous savez ce que c'est?
Je ne peux pas le dire parce que je ne veux pas me faire démonétiser.
D'accord, je ne sais pas à quels chiffres il fait référence ici parce que je n'ai pas pu les trouver, mais encore une fois

English: 
murders actually did go up a little bitafter 2015
but are now lower than any number listed since the 1990s
and what he means
by unauthorized use of another person's body
has actually been going up continuously for years starting way before 2015
but this is something that's always stated in those reports and we also all know this
that more and more cases
are being reported nowadays.
It doesn't necessarily mean that
more things are happening, it's just
more things are getting reported,
which is good,
you know, like the me2 movement was in 2017.
Of course, most of those cases still aren't reported to the state,
but it means that these numbers aren't very reliable
and also not comparable.
Number 9 - Graffiti: A stroll through the streets of Berlin quickly revealed why it's sometimes referred to as the graffiti capital of Europe when the Berlin...
[Briggs]
I didn't know that actually.
[Briggs] ...Berlin wall came down in the early 1990s, 
graffiti artists and taggers had to find new places
to apply their art.
Now keep in mind;
Most the time they're not artists, thery're a**holes

French: 
les meurtres ont effectivement augmenté un peu après 2015
mais sont maintenant inférieurs à tout nombre répertorié depuis les années 1990
et ce qu'il veut dire
par une utilisation non autorisée du corps d'une autre personne
a en fait augmenté de façon continue pendant des années à partir de 2015
mais c'est quelque chose qui est toujours indiqué dans ces rapports et nous le savons tous
(*pas chaque année mais sur le long terme)
que de plus en plus de cas
sont signalés de nos jours.
Cela ne signifie pas nécessairement qu'il se passe plus de choses, c'est juste
que plus de choses sont signalées,
ce qui est bien,
vous savez, comme le mouvement #metoo en 2017.
Bien sûr, la plupart de ces cas ne sont toujours pas signalés à l'État,
mais cela signifie que ces chiffres ne sont pas très fiables
et non comparable.
Numéro 9 - Graffiti: Une promenade dans les rues de Berlin a rapidement révélé pourquoi elle était parfois appelée la capitale européenne du graffiti lorsque...
[Briggs]
Je ne le savais pas vraiment.
[Briggs] ...lorsque  le mur de Berlin est tombé au début des années 1990, les graffeurs et les tagueurs devaient trouver de nouveaux endroits pour appliquer leur art.
Maintenant, gardez à l'esprit;
La plupart du temps, ce ne sont pas des artistes, ce sont des trous du 
[censuré dans le discours]

French: 
À peu près n'importe quel mur ou surface de bâtiment est devenu un jeu pour ces clowns une tâche pour ...
[Briggs]
D'accord, tout simplement parce que tout type de bâtiment ou de mur est devenu une surface de jeu ne signifie pas que
tout type de bâtiment ou de mur comporte des graffitis.
4 porte-parole estiment que les dégâts matériels causés par les graffitis à Berlin s'élèvent à environ 35 à 50 millions d'euros par an.
[Briggs] Le groupe de travail spécial anti-graffiti de Berlin n'a même pas été formé avant le début des années 1990.
Le groupe de travail est sous-financé et en quelque sorte inutile.
[Briggs]
La moyenne de la capitale allemande est d'environ 15 arrestations par semaine pour des graffitis [Briggs]
[Briggs] avec des amendes allant de 100 €,
environ 135$US, à plusieurs milliers d'euros.
[Briggs] Ce qu'ils doivent faire
est d'enchaîner ces mecs qu'ils nettoient leurs propres graffitis.
[Briggs] Pouvez-vous imaginer être enchaîné à d'autres mecs pour nettoyer les graffitis que vous avez peint pendant une semaine avant que tous vos amis viennent et ne se moquent de vous?
Ouais, ça va l'arrêter.
[Briggs]
D'accord, donc je n'ai pas vérifié ces chiffres,
donc je suis sûr qu'ils sont exacts,
mais je ne vois pas vraiment pourquoi ce serait une vraie raison de ne pas vivre en Allemagne.

English: 
Just about any building wall or surface has become
fair game to these clowns a task for...
[Briggs]
Okay, just because any type of building or wall has become for a game doesn't mean that
any type of building or wall has graffiti on them.
4 spokesmen estimated the property damage caused by graffiti in Berlin is about 35 to 50 million € a year.
[Briggs] Berlin's special anti graffiti task force
wasn't even formed until the early 1990s.
The task force is underfunded and sort of useless.
[Briggs]
The German capital average is about 15 arrests a week for graffiti [Briggs]
[Briggs] with fines ranging from 100€,
about US$135 to several thousand.
[Briggs] What they need to do
is chain gang these dudes on a graffiti cleanup detail.
[Briggs] Can you imagine being chained to other dudes
cleaning up graffiti you put on there a week
before all your friends come and by making fun of you?
You yeah, that'll stop it.
[Briggs]
Okay, so I did not check those numbers,
so I'm sure they're accurate,
but I just don't really see why this would be an actual reason not to live in Germany.

English: 
He also only mentioned Berlin which is the capital of Germany, but it's not very representative for the rest of the country.
I've personally never considered graffiti
a major problem in Germany or anything that
lowers the quality of life in any way. I mean, yes, especially in bigger cities they definitely are on certain buildings and bridges and sometimes on trains
and I'm sure they do cause a lot of damage
but I just don't really see that
as a major problem in Germany.
[Briggs] Number 8 - Pay restrooms: This one doesn't have anything to do with the red-light district, which
[Briggs] I'm sure that goes on there,
it's just that's not what I'm talking about here;
[Briggs] You have to pay
to use public restrooms in most of the cities in Germany
It's about 50€, 55US¢
[Briggs]
Okay, you just said it's about 50¢
55US¢;
It's definitely not 50€, it's 50¢
and to make the wee-wee as my son used to call it.
[Briggs] A couple of coins ensures that
the attendants are making the money that they need
to make it worth their while to keep these places clean.
They're very clean, you have to pay everywhere from a train station stores and even to restaurants Airports...
[Briggs]
Okay,

French: 
Il a également seulement mentionné Berlin, qui est la capitale de l'Allemagne, mais ce n'est pas très représentatif pour le reste du pays.
Personnellement, je n'ai jamais pensé aux graffitis comme un problème majeur en Allemagne ou comme quelque chose qui
diminue la qualité de vie de quelque façon que ce soit. Je veux dire, oui, surtout dans les grandes villes, ils se trouvent certainement sur certains bâtiments et ponts et parfois sur les trains
et je suis sûr qu'ils causent beaucoup de dégâts
mais je ne vois pas vraiment ça
comme un problème majeur en Allemagne.
[Briggs] Numéro 8 - Toilettes payantes: celle-ci n'a rien à voir avec le quartier rouge, qui
[Briggs] Je suis sûr continue là-bas,
c'est juste que ce n'est pas ce dont je parle ici;
[Briggs] Vous devez payer pour
utiliser les toilettes publiques dans la plupart des villes d'Allemagne
C'est environ 50 €, 55 ¢
[Briggs]
D'accord, vous venez de dire que c'est environ 50 ¢
55 ¢;
Ce n'est certainement pas 50 €, c'est 50 ¢
et pour faire le pipi comme mon fils l'appelait.
[Briggs] Un couple de pièces garantit que
les préposés gagnent l'argent dont ils ont besoin
pour que cela vaille la peine de garder ces lieux propres.
Ils sont très propres, il faut payer partout depuis les gares et même les restaurants d'aéroports ...
[Briggs]
D'accord,

English: 
He also only mentioned Berlin which is the capital of Germany, but it's not very representative for the rest of the country.
I've personally never considered graffiti
a major problem in Germany or anything that
lowers the quality of life in any way. I mean, yes, especially in bigger cities they definitely are on certain buildings and bridges and sometimes on trains
and I'm sure they do cause a lot of damage
but I just don't really see that
as a major problem in Germany.
[Briggs] Number 8 - Pay restrooms: This one doesn't have anything to do with the red-light district, which
[Briggs] I'm sure that goes on there,
it's just that's not what I'm talking about here;
[Briggs] You have to pay
to use public restrooms in most of the cities in Germany
It's about 50€, 55¢
[Briggs]
Okay, you just said it's about 50¢
55¢;
It's definitely not 50€, it's 50¢
and to make the wee-wee as my son used to call it.
[Briggs] A couple of coins ensures that
the attendants are making the money that they need
to make it worth their while to keep these places clean.
They're very clean, you have to pay everywhere from a train station stores and even to restaurants Airports...
[Briggs]
Okay,

English: 
yes, you have to pay in a lot of places
but especially with the restaurants and stores
I feel like I hardly ever see that
if anything I feel like it's at restaurants and stores
that are located at a place where they know
that a lot of people are going to use their restrooms
that aren't actually customers if that makes sense.
But it's not very common at a restaurant. Say you're eating at the restaurant and you used their restroom
won't have to pay for it.
...ports are the rare exception to the pay to pee rule.
If you ever hear someone say [Briggs]
[Briggs] W.C or water closet in Germany,
they're referring to the restroom.
Veh-tseh [W.C] is what we call it
[Briggs] because it's like the size of a closet
and there's water in there I guess or you're making water,
who knows?
[Briggs]
Okay, so yes paying to use the restroom
is a thing in Germany
and I know that a lot of people
who visit Germany from other places
complain about that but it's not always mandatory,
as I just said.
So especially at rest stops on highways
and sometimes at train stations,
this actually is a thing that there's a system in place
where you actually have to pay.
There's going to be a turnstile
and you have to put in usually 70c [Eurocents]

French: 
oui, il faut payer dans beaucoup d'endroits
mais surtout avec les restaurants et magasins
J'ai l'impression de ne jamais avoir vu ça
si je pense que c'est dans les restaurants et les magasins qui sont situés à un endroit où ils savent
que beaucoup de gens vont utiliser leurs toilettes et qu'ils ne sont pas réellement des clients alors cela a du sens.
Mais ce n'est pas très courant dans un restaurant. Dès que tu manges au restaurant et que tu souhaites utiliser leurs toilettes
tu n'auras pas à payer pour cela.
... les ports sont la seule exception à la règle du pipi.
Si jamais vous entendez quelqu'un dire [Briggs]
[Briggs] WC ou WC en Allemagne,
ils se réfèrent aux toilettes.
Veh-tseh [WC] est ce que nous appelons
[Briggs] parce que c'est comme la taille d'un placard
et il y a de l'eau là-dedans ou je fais de l'eau,
qui sait?
[Briggs]
D'accord, donc oui payer pour utiliser les toilettes
est une chose en Allemagne
et je sais que beaucoup de gens
qui visitent l'Allemagne depuis d'autres endroits
s'en plaignent mais ce n'est pas toujours obligatoire,
comme je viens de le dire.
Donc surtout aux haltes routières sur les autoroutes
et parfois dans les gares,
c'est en fait une chose qu'il y a un système en place
où vous devez réellement payer.
Il va y avoir un tourniquet
et vous devez mettre en général 70c [Eurocents]

English: 
yes, you have to pay in a lot of places
but especially with the restaurants and stores
I feel like I hardly ever see that
if anything I feel like it's at restaurants and stores
that are located at a place where they know
that a lot of people are going to use their restrooms
that aren't actually customers if that makes sense.

this actually is a thing that there's a system in place
where you actually have to pay.
There's going to be a turnstile
and you have to put in usually 70c [Eurocents]

English: 
to go through the turnstile but then afterwards
you're gonna get 50c [Eurocents] back as a coupon that you can use at any of the connected stores.
But those bathrooms are always extremely clean,
so that's when you get in return.
For regular restrooms, though, it's either free or
there's going to be a person from the cleaning staff
sitting outside the restroom with a little tipping plate
and when you leave it's common courtesy 
to give them some of your change.
And since Germans still use a lot of cash to this day,
people usually do have change on them.
In very rare cases they have a sign sitting there
saying how much they're asking for
but in my life it's never actually been a problem
if you don't have enough change on you
or if you don't have anything at all.
You can still use the restroom.
Just maybe say you're sorry when you leave.
[Briggs] Number 7 -  long and winding words:
German as in the case with most Germanic languages gets out of control with compound nouns.
They combine multiple words into one long word
to name or describe something. [Briggs]
This is totally weird to English speakers,
it's almost like they're doing it to f*** with us. 
[Briggs - censord in speech]

French: 
pour passer par le tourniquet mais ensuite
vous allez récupérer 50c [Eurocents] sous forme de coupon que vous pouvez utiliser dans n'importe quel magasin connecté.
Mais ces salles de bain sont toujours extrêmement propres,
c'est ce que vous obtenez en retour.
Pour les toilettes régulières, cependant, c'est gratuit ou
il va y avoir une personne du personnel de nettoyage
assise à l'extérieur des toilettes avec une petite plaque basculante
et quand tu pars c'est la courtoisie commune 
que de leur donner une partie de votre monnaie.
Et puisque les Allemands utilisent encore beaucoup d'argent à ce jour,
les gens ont généralement de la monnaie sur eux.
Dans de très rares cas, ils ont un panneau pour
dire combien ils demandent
mais dans ma vie ça n'a jamais été un problème
si vous n'avez pas assez de monnaie sur vous
ou si vous n'avez rien du tout.
Vous pouvez toujours utiliser les toilettes.
Dites juste que vous êtes désolé quand vous partez.
[Briggs] Numéro 7 - mots longs et sinueux:
L'allemand comme dans le cas de la plupart des langues germaniques devient incontrôlable avec des noms composés.
Ils combinent plusieurs mots en un seul mot long
pour nommer ou décrire quelque chose. [Briggs]
C'est totalement bizarre pour les anglophones,
c'est presque comme s'ils le faisaient pour baiser avec nous.

[Briggs - censord in speech]

English: 
Okay, so this is true, but I promisewe're not doing it to f*** with you. [Censored in speech]
The reason why German words can get so long is that when we form a new word out of two existing words
we leave out the space.
So while in English you say police car and spell it as two words.
we spell it as one word in German.
[Briggs] Swear to God - At 80 letters
the longest word ever composed in German is
and I don't even know how to pronounce it 
but I'm going to spell it for you. [Briggs]
Buckle up [spells that word]
What?
[spelling out continues]
Yeah, I'm not even kidding, that's a real word.
[Briggs]

French: 
D'accord, c'est vrai, mais je promets que nous ne le faisons pas pour f *** avec vous. [Censuré dans le discours]
La raison pour laquelle les mots allemands peuvent devenir si longs est que lorsque nous formons un nouveau mot à partir de deux mots existants
nous laissons de côté l'espace.
Donc, en anglais (français), vous dites police car (voiture de police) et l'épelez en deux mots.
nous l'épelons comme un seul mot en allemand.
[Briggs] Jure devant Dieu - À 80 lettres
le plus long mot jamais composé en allemand est

Yeah, I'm totally confused at this point too. 
Mark... [Briggs]
Yeah, me too and I actually didn't know this word before this, but I know you guys probably want me to say this now.
So let me try:
I did it!
So I didn't know this word before this
but I looked it up and apparently it was actually
in the Guinness Book of Records until 1996
but then they cut it because it's not actually a real word. It doesn't have
a real meaning it's just made up.
[Briggs] Mark Twain expressed his views bluntly in an 1880 essay: He said the German language is awful.
He argued a gifted person could learn English in 30 hours,
French in 30 days and it would take

Donc je ne connaissais pas ce mot avant
mais je l'ai regardé et apparemment c'était en fait
dans le Livre Guinness des Records jusqu'en 1996
mais ensuite ils l'ont coupé parce que ce n'est pas vraiment un vrai mot. Il n'a pas
un vrai sens c'est juste inventé.
[Briggs] Mark Twain a exprimé son point de vue sans ambages dans un essai de 1880: Il a dit que la langue allemande était horrible.
Il a fait valoir qu'une personne surdouée pouvait apprendre l'anglais en 30 heures,
le français en 30 jours et il faudrait
[Briggs]
30 ans pour l'allemand.
[Briggs]

English: 
Okay, german is definitely difficult to learn 
but I would not say it takes 30 years to learn it,
definitely a few years and then some pretty big commitment to become fluent,
but I do know a lot of Americans
or I don't want to say a lot
I do know Americans who are fluent in German
and don't even have an accent so it is possible.
Number 6 Brutal taxes:
Germany's strong public services employee protection healthcare services and being a welfare state come at a cost. [Briggs]
[Briggs] Taxes here are some of the highest in the world
with those earning a little over 52,000€
which is about US$58,000 paying about 42%
in income tax. [Briggs]
You have a Social Security payment
and a 19% rate on value-added tax
Proffessionals should be ready to say goodbye to almost half their paychecks.
You may find your mandatory security Contribution costing more than your rent.
In addition to this, there's a solidarity surcharge,
which is a 5.5% tax [Briggs]
[Briggs] to cover the continuing costs of integrating 
the states of the former East Germany as many...
[Briggs] ...other countries, Germany allows a variety of deductions that can lower your total taxable income

French: 
D'accord, l'allemand est définitivement difficile à apprendre 
mais je ne dirais pas qu'il faut 30 ans pour l'apprendre,
certainement quelques années, puis un engagement assez important pour devenir fluide,
mais je connais beaucoup d'Américains,
bon peut-être pas beaucoup mais,
Je connais des Américains qui parlent couramment l'allemand
et n'ont même pas d'accent donc c'est possible.
Numéro 6 - Taxes brutales:
[Briggs]
Les solides services publics allemands de protection des services de santé et le statut d'État providence ont un coût. [Briggs]
[Briggs] Les taxes sont parmi les plus élevées au monde
avec ceux qui gagnent un peu plus de 52 000 €
ce qui représente environ 58 000 $ et paie environ 42%
en impôt sur le revenu. [Briggs]
Vous avez un paiement de sécurité sociale
et un taux de 19% sur la taxe sur la valeur ajoutée
[Briggs]
Les professionnels devraient être prêts à dire au revoir à près de la moitié de leur salaire.
Vous pouvez trouver votre contribution de sécurité obligatoire plus chère que votre loyer.
En plus de cela, il y a un supplément de solidarité,
qui est une taxe de 5,5% [Briggs]
[Briggs] pour couvrir les coûts continus d'intégration des états de l'ancienne Allemagne de l'Est ...
[Briggs] ... dans d'autres pays, l'Allemagne autorise diverses déductions qui peuvent réduire votre revenu imposable total

English: 
but still it's pretty brutal.
[Briggs]
In addition to the various forms of income tax there's also a series of sales tax that significantly impact both individuals and businesses.
Now get this, this is a great idea;
[Briggs]
they actually tax the churches,
[Briggs]
[Briggs] you know that's a hustle.
I mean, it's great if you want to not tax the churches,
but far too many churches are taking advantage of this  it's kind of a joke at this point. [Briggs]
All in all they're approximately 30 different types of taxes including taxes on inheritance and real estate Motor Vehicles too. [Briggs]
[Briggs] What I'm trying to say is
Germany's like my cousin's ex-wife
[horse vocalization]
It gets half your money and is doubled in size
since the fall of the Soviet Union. [Briggs]
Okay. Well, it's true that Germany does have 
really high taxes.
So I guess that actually is a valid reason 
not to live in Germanybut you do also get a lot in return as a resident
like free education, for example,
a good and affordable health care system
good infrastructure and so on.
And yes churches are being taxed in Germany,
but it's not just the churches,

French: 
mais c'est quand même assez brutal.
[Briggs]
En plus des diverses formes d'impôt sur le revenu, il existe également une série de taxes de vente qui ont un impact significatif sur les particuliers et les entreprises.
Maintenant, obtenez ceci, c'est une excellente idée;
[Briggs]
ils imposent en fait les églises,
[Briggs]
[Briggs] vous savez que c'est une bousculade.
Je veux dire, c'est génial si vous voulez ne pas taxer les églises,
mais beaucoup trop d'églises en profitent, c'est une sorte de blague à ce stade. [Briggs]
Au total, ce sont environ 30 types différents de taxes, y compris les taxes sur les successions et les véhicules automobiles immobiliers. [Briggs]
[Briggs] Ce que j'essaie de dire c'est que
l'Allemagne est comme l'ex-femme de mon cousin
[vocalisation du cheval]
Il obtient la moitié de votre argent et est doublé de taille
depuis la chute de l'Union soviétique. [Briggs]
D'accord. Eh bien, c'est vrai que l'Allemagne a des impôts très élevés.
Donc je suppose que c'est une raison valable pour ne pas vivre en Allemagne, mais vous recevez aussi beaucoup en retour en tant que résident
comme l'éducation gratuite, par exemple,
un bon système de santé abordable
de bonnes infrastructures et ainsi de suite.
Et oui, les églises sont imposées en Allemagne,
mais pas seulement les églises,

English: 
but still it's pretty brutal.
In addition to the various forms of income tax there's also a series of sales tax that significantly impact both individuals and businesses.
Now get this, this is a great idea;

And yes churches are being taxed in Germany,
but it's not just the churches,

English: 
it's also the residents if they're registered as a church member.
Remember how in my 5 things part 2 video I mentioned that in Germany you're never asked for your race on forms?
Well what we do have though
that isn't a thing in the U.S
is that you're sometimes asked
for your religious denomination on forms
and if you're baptized you are automatically registered as a member of either the Catholic or the Protestant church in Germany
and you have to pay Church taxes.
If you don't want to do that, you have to actively
leave the church, so like end your membership,
but if you want to get married in a church,
it's a requirement that at least
one of the 2 partners is a church member.
Number 5 - Germans love their cash:
Anybody used to carrying a wallet full of plastic should know this; Many shops in Germany only accept payment in cash [Briggs]
and offering the debit card will just get them to shake their head at you and tell you no or point to one of their
[Briggs]
A.T.M machines where you get the cash and give it
to them and those A.T.M's, as we all know,
have pretty steep fees.
This is changing little bit but they're well behind U.S
and most other industrial countries. [Briggs]

French: 
ce sont aussi les résidents s'ils sont enregistrés comme membres d'église.
Rappelez-vous comment dans ma vidéo 5 choses partie 2, j'ai mentionné qu'en Allemagne on ne vous demandait jamais votre ethnie sur des formulaires?
Eh bien, ce que nous avons
qui n'existe pas aux États-Unis
c'est qu'on vous demande parfois votre dénomination religieuse sur les formulaires
et si vous êtes baptisé, vous êtes automatiquement inscrit en tant que membre de l'église catholique ou protestante en Allemagne
et vous devez payer les impôts de l'Église.
Si vous ne voulez pas faire cela, vous devez activement
quitter l'église, donc comme mettre fin à votre adhésion,
mais si vous voulez vous marier dans une église,
c'est une exigence qu'au moins
l'un des 2 partenaires soit membre de l'église.
Numéro 5 - Les Allemands aiment leur argent:
Quiconque a l'habitude de porter un portefeuille plein de plastique devrait le savoir; De nombreux magasins en Allemagne n'acceptent que les paiements en espèces [Briggs]
et offrir la carte de débit ne fera que les secouer la tête et vous dire non ou pointer vers l'un de leurs
[Briggs]
Distributeurs automatiques où vous obtenez l'argent et vous l'utilisez après et ces distributeurs automatiques de billets, comme nous le savons tous,
ont des frais assez élevés.
Cela change un peu, mais ils sont loin derrière les États-Unis et la plupart des autres pays industriels. [Briggs]

English: 
it's also the residents if they're registered as a church member.

English: 
Germans simply find it easier to keep track of their spending when they use cash. [Briggs]
A study found that the average German wallet contains about 103 visible euros about $115,
more than 3 times [Briggs]
[Briggs] the figure in France.
Cash is still a means of payment in some 80% of the point-of-sale transactions in Germany.
What it is is Germans...
[Briggs]
[Briggs]...don't trust a lot of technology apparently their privacy and the rule of state, they're just very against that stuff,
[Briggs] so they like to use their cash
and keep their transactions to themselves.
Of all the purchases made in Germany in 2018,
[Briggs]
[Briggs] just 20% were made with cards.
That's the lowest of any country.
Okay, so first of all if you're interested in this topic
you should definitely watch my video
on money and payment differences
linked in the infobox below.
It's true that Germans still primarily pay with cash
when it comes to everyday purchases like
at a store or a restaurant
but it's not true that we don't trust technology.
We definitely use cards a lot less
but bigger payments like rent or bills
or mortgages and things like that

Les Allemands trouvent simplement plus facile de suivre leurs dépenses lorsqu'ils utilisent de l'argent. [Briggs]
Une étude a révélé que le portefeuille allemand moyen contient environ 103 euros visibles, environ 115 $,
plus de 3 fois [Briggs]
[Briggs] le chiffre en France.
L'argent liquide reste un moyen de paiement dans environ 80% des transactions au point de vente en Allemagne.
Ce qu'il se passe c'est que les Allemands ...
[Briggs]
[Briggs] ... ne font pas confiance à beaucoup de technologie apparemment leur vie privée et la règle d'État, ils sont tout simplement contre ce genre de choses,
[Briggs] donc ils aiment utiliser leur argent
et garder leurs transactions pour eux.
De tous les achats effectués en Allemagne en 2018,
[Briggs]
[Briggs] 20% seulement ont été faits avec des cartes.
C'est le plus bas de tous les pays.
D'accord, donc tout d'abord si ce sujet vous intéresse
vous devriez certainement regarder ma vidéo
sur l'argent et les différences de paiement
liés dans l'infobox ci-dessous.
Il est vrai que les Allemands continuent de payer principalement en espèces
en ce qui concerne les achats quotidiens comme
dans un magasin ou un restaurant
mais ce n'est pas vrai que nous ne faisons pas confiance à la technologie.
Nous utilisons beaucoup moins de cartes
mais des paiements plus importants comme le loyer ou les factures
ou des hypothèques et des choses comme ça

English: 
are almost always made via online banking 
much more than in the U.S.
Making a big payment with cash
would actually seem sketchy to us
and checks are almost non-existent in Germany.
It's also not true that you can almost never pay with your card at the store.
You usually can actually
The only exceptions would be things like
little kiosks or bakeries or things like that
and at restaurants it's often not possible at all
or there's often a minimum purchase requirement.
[Briggs]Number 4 - winters are too cold:
The German winter is notoriously long gray and cold.
The average daily temperature is around 0 degrees Celsius, which is 32 Fahrenheit. [Briggs]
[Briggs] It's also rainy and windier because of
the Atlantic Ocean and cold air masses from Russia.
[Briggs] They also get these cold waves from Siberia
where temperatures can plunge to minus 20 degrees Celsius
which is minus 4 or 5 Fahrenheit in much of Germany.
[Briggs]
[Briggs] The summers are nice
and it's a great time to visit Germany.
[Briggs] From mid-may to September
you might actually forget how bad the winter was.

French: 
sont presque toujours effectués via les services bancaires en ligne 
beaucoup plus qu'aux États-Unis
Effectuer un gros paiement en espèces
nous semblerait en fait fragmentaire
et les contrôles sont presque inexistants en Allemagne.
Ce n'est pas vrai non plus que vous ne pouvez presque jamais payer avec votre carte au magasin.
Vous pouvez généralement
Les seules exceptions seraient des choses comme des
petits kiosques ou des boulangeries ou des choses comme ça
et dans les restaurants ce n'est souvent pas possible du tout
ou il y a souvent un minimum d'achat.
[Briggs] Numéro 4 - les hivers sont trop froids:
L'hiver allemand est notoirement long, gris et froid.
La température quotidienne moyenne est d'environ 0 degrés Celsius, ce qui fait 32 degrés Fahrenheit. [Briggs]
[Briggs] C'est aussi pluvieux et venteux à cause de
l'océan Atlantique et les masses d'air froid de la Russie.
[Briggs] Ils ont aussi ces vagues de froid de la Sibérie
où les températures peuvent plonger à moins 20 degrés Celsius
qui est de moins 4 ou 5 degrés Fahrenheit dans une grande partie de l'Allemagne.
[Briggs]
[Briggs] Les étés sont agréables
et c'est le moment idéal pour visiter l'Allemagne.
[Briggs] De mi-mai à septembre
vous pourriez en fait oublier à quel point l'hiver était mauvais.

English: 
December is one of the coldest months in Germany
with chances of snow relatively good, [Briggs]
[Briggs] like every single day and temperatures
get below freezing for most of the month.
My uncle was stationed in Germany for
[Briggs]
[Briggs] about six years, I believe,
and he said he'd never seen winters like that,
just bone-chilling where your bones ache.
[Briggs]
Okay, this is actually pretty far away from the truth:
Germany is not known for amazing weather obviously, and it does rain a lot
but I've lived in Germany for 22 years of my life
and what he just described
is not what our winters are like.
In Munich, which is like an hour away from the Alps
we definitely did have winters with a lot of snow
when I was a child
but it's really becoming less every single year.
In the past few years
the winters there have actually almost
always been exactly the same as here in Cincinnati.
So if you know what Cincinnati winters are like,
you know what it's like in Munich.
In January 2019 Munich actually had a lot
of snow so much that
trees collapsed and streets were closed 
and stuff like that

French: 
Décembre est l'un des mois les plus froids d'Allemagne
avec des chances de neige relativement bonnes, [Briggs]
[Briggs] à peu près chaque jour et les températures peuvent descendre en dessous de zéro pendant la majeure partie du mois.
Mon oncle était en poste en Allemagne pour
[Briggs]
[Briggs] environ six ans, je crois,
et il a dit qu'il n'avait jamais vu des hivers comme ça,
il suffit à refroidir les os là où vos os vous font mal.
[Briggs]
D'accord, c'est en fait assez loin de la vérité:
L'Allemagne n'est pas connue pour son temps incroyable, et il pleut beaucoup
mais j'ai vécu en Allemagne pendant 22 années de ma vie
et ce qu'il vient de décrire
n'est pas ce que sont nos hivers.
À Munich, à une heure des Alpes
nous avons certainement eu des hivers avec beaucoup de neige
quand j'étais petite
mais il y en a de moins en moins chaque année.
Au cours des dernières années
les hivers là-bas ont en fait presque
été exactement les mêmes qu'ici à Cincinnati.
Donc, si vous savez à quoi ressemblent les hivers de Cincinnati,
vous savez à quoi ça ressemble à Munich.
En janvier 2019, Munich a eu en fait beaucoup
de neige tellement
que les arbres se sont effondrés et les rues ont été fermées et des trucs comme ça

English: 
but then this past winter they actually had no snow at all and snow almost every single day in December.
I mean, I wish we haven't had a white Christmas in Munich in years. I don't honestly even remember
the last time we did.
It's usually been really warm on Christmas these past few years
Regarding the numbers that Briggs mentioned
the average temperature in the winter
in Germany is definitely not
32 degrees Fahrenheit - not sure where he got that number from -
the real number is 4.1 degrees Celsius which equals about 39 degrees Fahrenheit
that's actually about the same average winter temperature as in Tennessee, for example.
In Ohio, the average winter temperature is 30 degrees Fahrenheit
so much colder.
And yes I actually have experienced temperatures of as cold as minus 4 degrees Fahrenheit
in Munich but that was maybe like twice in my life and I have experienced that in the u.s. too.
So it seems like Briggs' uncle must have lived in Germany decades ago and apparently in a region
that's especially cold
and I would assume that he's probably from a warmer region in the US not sure.

French: 
mais l'hiver dernier, il n'y avait en fait pas de neige du tout et de la neige presque tous les jours en décembre.
Je veux dire, je suis sûre que nous n'avons pas eu de Noël blanc à Munich depuis des années. Je ne me souviens même pas honnêtement
la dernière fois où nous en avons eu un.
Il fait généralement très chaud à Noël ces dernières années
Concernant les chiffres mentionnés par Briggs
la température moyenne en hiver
en Allemagne n'est certainement pas
de 32 degrés Fahrenheit (0°C) - je ne sais pas d'où il a obtenu ce nombre -
le nombre réel est de 4,1°C, ce qui équivaut à environ 39 degrés Fahrenheit
c'est en fait à peu près la même température hivernale moyenne qu'au Tennessee, par exemple.
Dans l'Ohio, la température moyenne d'hiver est de 30 degrés Fahrenheit (-1°C)
ce qui est beaucoup plus froid.
Et oui, j'ai en fait connu des températures aussi froides que moins 4 degrés Fahrenheit (-20°C)
à Munich, mais c'était peut-être deux fois dans ma vie et je l'ai vécu aux États-Unis aussi.
Il semble donc que l'oncle de Briggs ait dû vivre en Allemagne il y a des décennies et apparemment dans une région particulièrement froide
et je suppose qu'il est probablement d'une région plus chaude des États-Unis, je ne sais pas.

Number 3 - air conditioning:
[Briggs]
[Briggs] Germans are very environmentally conscious
and would shy away from using an appliance that uses so much electricity.
Less than 10% of all European households have air conditioning that's compared to 90% in the United States.
[Briggs]
Yep. That's it, it's official, I will never live in Germany.
[Briggs]
I love air conditioning like a sailor loves his rum.
[Briggs]
[Briggs] I've actually caught myself wanting 
to write poems about my air conditioning 
during hot summer days.
European air conditioners are already among the world's most efficient and these people still won't use them.
[Briggs]
[Briggs] Meanwhile, at my house,
I'm looking for A/C that uses more power.
I find it hard to communicate properly in hot weather,
I don't know what that is, I need it cool and could never live in Germany during the summer. [Briggs]
Air conditioners' energy consumption
was among the reasons cited [Briggs]
[Briggs] when German officials rejected proposals 
to install cooling systems in the schools.
Okay. So this is true,
we usually don't have air conditioning in our houses.

Numéro 3 - climatisation:
[Briggs]
[Briggs] Les Allemands sont très soucieux de l'environnement
et hésiterait à utiliser un appareil qui utilise autant d'électricité.
Moins de 10% de tous les ménages européens disposent de la climatisation, contre 90% aux États-Unis.
[Briggs]
Oui. Ça y est, c'est officiel, je ne vivrai jamais en Allemagne.
[Briggs]
J'adore la climatisation comme un marin aime son rhum.
[Briggs]
[Briggs] Je me suis en fait surpris à vouloir 
écrire des poèmes sur ma climatisation 
pendant les chaudes journées d'été.
Les climatiseurs européens sont déjà parmi les plus efficaces au monde et ces personnes ne les utilisent toujours pas.
[Briggs]
[Briggs] Pendant ce temps, chez moi,
Je recherche un climatiseur qui utilise plus de puissance.
J'ai du mal à communiquer correctement par temps chaud,
Je ne sais pas ce que c'est, j'ai besoin de fraicheur et je ne pourrais jamais vivre en Allemagne pendant l'été. [Briggs]
Consommation d'énergie des climatiseurs
était parmi les raisons citées [Briggs]
[Briggs] lorsque les autorités allemandes ont rejeté les propositions 
d'installer des systèmes de refroidissement dans les écoles.
D'accord. C'est donc vrai,
nous n'avons généralement pas de climatisation dans nos maisons.

If you'd like to know more about this topic you should check out my video on 6 things that the US can learn from Germany because I actually talked quite a lot
about air conditioning and windows in that video.
And to Germans,
it's not just that air conditioning needs a lot of power
we also just don't like it as much for some reason.
Sometimes it definitely can be exhausting in the summer without air conditioning
but German summers aren't as hot and as long anyways,
it's usually only hot for like a few weeks.
Also, our houses are usually built out of bricks,
which means that they're insulated a lot better,
which means that they don't heat up as quickly
in the summer.
And also what we do is that we open our windows a lot at night when it's cooler and just let the cool air inside.
But yeah, if you need air conditioning in your life
Germany or Europe, in general,
is definitely not the right place to which to move.
Number 2 - everything is closed on Sundays:
Sundays are day of rest for Germans and most shops you'll find are closed. [Briggs]
It doesn't have anything to do with religion, 
it's more of a tradition. [Briggs]
There's a law which restricts loud noises such as vacuuming drilling slapping each other around
or playing loud music even in your own home [Briggs]

French: 
Si vous souhaitez en savoir plus sur ce sujet, vous devriez regarder ma vidéo sur 6 choses que les États-Unis peuvent apprendre de l'Allemagne, car j'ai en fait beaucoup parlé
sur la climatisation et les fenêtres dans cette vidéo.
Et pour les Allemands,
ce n'est pas seulement que la climatisation a besoin de beaucoup de puissance
nous ne l'aimons pas autant pour d'autres raisons.
Parfois, ça peut certainement être épuisant en été sans climatisation
mais les étés allemands ne sont pas aussi chauds et aussi longs de toute façon,
il ne fait généralement chaud que pendant quelques semaines.
De plus, nos maisons sont généralement construites en briques,
ce qui signifie qu'elles sont beaucoup mieux isolées,
ce qui signifie qu'elles ne chauffent pas aussi rapidement en été.
Et ce que nous faisons aussi, c'est que nous ouvrons beaucoup nos fenêtres la nuit quand il fait plus frais et que nous laissons simplement l'air frais à l'intérieur.
Mais oui, si vous avez besoin d'air conditionné dans votre vie
l'Allemagne ou l'Europe, en général,
n'est certainement pas le bon endroit pour se déplacer.
Numéro 2 - tout est fermé le dimanche:
Le dimanche est un jour de repos pour les Allemands et la plupart des magasins que vous trouverez sont fermés. [Briggs]
Cela n'a rien à voir avec la religion, 
c'est plus une tradition. [Briggs]
Il y a une loi qui limite les bruits forts tels que le forage à l'aspirateur se giflant
ou jouer de la musique forte même chez vous [Briggs]

English: 
on Sundays, especially between the hours of 1 p.m and 3 p.m
[Briggs] and 10 p.m and 7 a.m.
Play your stuff too loud then or get weird, you're going to get a visit from the man.
Now this holds true for tourists and hotels
don't be loud on Sundays. [Briggs]
[Briggs] Other than shops that are like,
in gas stations train stations and airports 
most shops are closed on Sundays.
[Briggs] There's a store closing law that
was put into place in 1956 making it a legal requirement
for people to have Sundays off
They aren't big on overworking in Germany,
[Briggs]
[Briggs]which is good if you're resident, 
kind of sucks if you're a tourist you know 
looking for something on a Sunday
Ok, so this is true most stores are closed on Sundays
but places like restaurants and movie theaters
and those kinds of places are
open and it definitely did have religious reasons originally
not so much nowadays.
So that's true it's not like
Germans need that day off to all go to church on Sunday, that's not really what a lot of Germans do.
I agree that it can be very inconvenient
especially if you're used to the circumstances here in the US or other countries where you can always go shopping

French: 
le dimanche, en particulier entre 13 heures et 15 heures
[Briggs] et 22 h et 7 h.
Jouez vos trucs trop fort alors ou devenez bizarre, vous allez recevoir la visite de l'homme.
Maintenant, cela vaut pour les touristes et les hôtels
ne soyez pas bruyant le dimanche. [Briggs]
[Briggs] A part les magasins qui sont comme,
dans les stations-service gares et aéroports 
la plupart des magasins sont fermés le dimanche.
[Briggs] Il y a une loi de fermeture de magasin qui
a été mis en place en 1956, ce qui en fait une obligation légale
pour que les gens aient des dimanches
Ils ne sont pas grands sur le surmenage en Allemagne,
[Briggs]
[Briggs] ce qui est bien si vous êtes résident, 
mais ennuie un peu si vous êtes un touriste qui cherche quelque chose un dimanche
Ok, donc c'est vrai la plupart des magasins sont fermés le dimanche
mais des endroits comme des restaurants et des cinémas
et ce genre d'endroits sont
ouverts et il avait certainement des raisons religieuses à l'origine
mais plus tellement de nos jours.
C'est vrai que ce n'est pas comme si
les Allemands ont besoin de ce jour de congé pour aller à l'église le dimanche, ce n'est pas vraiment ce que font beaucoup d'Allemands.
Je suis d'accord que cela peut être très gênant
surtout si vous êtes habitué aux circonstances ici aux États-Unis ou dans d'autres pays où vous pouvez toujours faire du shopping

English: 
and it does require some planning for sure
but on the other hand it can also be really nice because it can be a day where you just
spend some time with friends and family
because the vast majority of all people in Germany
won't have to work that day.
What he said about the law that
you can't be loud on Sundays,
that's actually true for the whole day on Sunday
and also any other holiday
what he said about the night thing
that you can't be loud from 10:00 p.m to 7:00 a.m
(or I think it's actually 6:00 a.m)
That's actually true for every single day not to Sunday.
So I guess it's even more extreme than what he said.
Here we go, number one:
And number one
[Briggs]
[Briggs] Nazis are still around:
Germany still has nazis. This time around 
they're not paid by the government,
[Briggs] that's a good thing.
More than 4,000 attacks on foreigners have occurred
since 2015 some with molotov cocktails, 
it's always nice.
[Briggs] I read about these weird 1940s books
that may have helped give rise to this type of mentality.
[Briggs] The books say mothers need
to ignore their babies emotional needs.
[Briggs] Now here's where it gets weird:
Joana Haarer (I believe that's her name),

French: 
et cela nécessite une certaine planification
mais d'un autre côté ça peut aussi être vraiment sympa car ça peut être un jour où on vient
passer du temps avec des amis et la famille
parce que la grande majorité de toutes les personnes en Allemagne
n'auront pas à travailler ce jour-là.
Ce qu'il a dit de la loi
vous ne pouvez pas être bruyant le dimanche,
c'est vrai pour toute la journée du dimanche
et aussi tout autre jour férié
ce qu'il a dit à propos de la nuit
que vous ne pouvez pas être bruyant de 22h00 à 7h00
(ou je pense que c'est en fait 6h00)
C'est vrai pour chaque jour, pas pour le dimanche.
Je suppose donc que c'est encore plus extrême que ce qu'il a dit.
C'est parti, numéro un:
Et numéro un
[Briggs]
[Briggs] Les nazis sont toujours là:
L'Allemagne a encore des nazis. Cette fois-ci 
ils ne sont pas payés par le gouvernement,
[Briggs] c'est une bonne chose.
Plus de 4 000 attaques contre des étrangers ont eu lieu
depuis 2015 certains avec des cocktails molotov, 
c'est toujours sympa.
[Briggs] J'ai lu sur ces livres étranges des années 40
qui peuvent avoir contribué à donner naissance à ce type de mentalité.
[Briggs] Les livres disent que les mères ont besoin
d'ignorer les besoins émotionnels de leur bébé.
[Briggs] Voici maintenant où ça devient bizarre:
Joana Haarer (je crois que c'est son nom),

Joana Haarer (I believe that's her name),

English: 
[Briggs] a physician whose books were written during the nazi era,
urged women to distance themselves from their young children.
[Briggs] Here in the 'States, we don't do that
until they're about 30 and don't have a job.
[Briggs] The books have reached nearly biblical status in some nursery schools and childcare centers over the years.
[Briggs] The domestic intelligence service estimates that there were
12,700 violent right-wing extremists in the country in 2017.
[Briggs]
Yeah, so that's not a good thing for Germany.
Keep that in mind if you're going to visit or move there,
but I just found that whole avoiding our kids emotional need thing is weird. [Briggs]
I agree, that is weird,
but okay
there was a lot in there.
So where should I start?
So it's true that there have been a lot of attacks on foreigners,
especially since the refugee crisis in 2015
but also before that,
but fortunately, the majority of all Germans 
do not identify with that at all.
So it's really not like you go to Germany
and the first thing you'll see are Nazis.
Yes, there are neo-nazis in Germany and there is a political party called

French: 
[Briggs] un médecin dont les livres ont été écrits à l'époque nazie,
exhorte les femmes à se distancier de leurs jeunes enfants.
[Briggs] Ici aux États-Unis, nous ne faisons pas ça
jusqu'à ce qu'ils aient environ 30 ans et un emploi.
[Briggs] Au fil des ans, les livres ont atteint un statut presque biblique dans certaines écoles maternelles et garderies.
[Briggs] Le service de renseignement intérieur estime qu'il y avait
12700 extrémistes violents de droite dans le pays en 2017.
[Briggs]
Ouais, donc ce n'est pas une bonne chose pour l'Allemagne.
Gardez cela à l'esprit si vous allez visiter ou vous y déplacer,
mais je viens de découvrir que le fait d’éviter les besoins émotionnels de nos enfants est bizarre. [Briggs]
Je suis d'accord, c'est bizarre,
mais ok
il y avait beaucoup de choses là-dedans.
Alors, où dois-je commencer?
Il est donc vrai qu'il y a eu beaucoup d'attaques contre des étrangers,
surtout depuis la crise des réfugiés en 2015
mais aussi avant cela,
mais heureusement, la majorité de tous les Allemands 
ne s'identifient pas à cela du tout.
Donc ce n'est vraiment pas comme si vous alliez en Allemagne et la première chose que vous verrez, ce sont les nazis.
Oui, il y a des néo-nazis en Allemagne et il y a un parti politique appelé

English: 
...that has a lot in common with the original Nazi Party
...but it's very small and it's not represented 
in any of the state parliaments in Germany 
or in the Federal Parliament.
In the early 2000s, there was actually a 
murder series in Germany
conducted by a Nazi group called...
The trial was very prominent in the German media
and I think in international media, too,
so maybe you've heard about it, but unfortunately
there are neo-nazis in almost all European countries 
and in the US as well.
Now the book that Briggs mentioned is definitely not used in German nurseries or childcare centers anymore.
He said the books have reached biblical status
or something like that.
Well that was during the Third Reich and post WWII,
but that was like over 60 years ago.
Those books haven't really been around 
since the 1970s or 80s at the latest.
I personally had never heard of the book that he mentioned by Johanna Haarer, I looked it up of course,

French: 
... qui a beaucoup en commun avec le parti nazi d'origine
... mais il est très petit et il n'est pas représenté 
dans l'un des parlements nationaux en Allemagne 
ou au Parlement fédéral.
Au début des années 2000, il y avait en fait une 
série de meurtres en Allemagne
menée par un groupe nazi appelé ...
Le procès a été très médiatisé dans les médias allemands
et je pense que dans les médias internationaux aussi,
alors peut-être que vous en avez entendu parler, mais malheureusement
il y a des néo-nazis dans presque tous les pays européens et aux Etats-Unis aussi.
Maintenant le livre mentionné par Briggs n'est certainement plus utilisé dans les garderies ou crèches allemandes.
Il dit que les livres ont atteint un statut biblique ou quelque chose comme ça.
C'était pendant le troisième Reich et la deuxième guerre mondiale,
mais c'était il y a plus de 60 ans.
Ces livres n'ont réellement pas été utilisés depuis les années 70 ou 80 au plus tard.
Je n'ai personnellement jamais entendu parler du livre de Johanna Haarer, je l'ai cherché bien sûr

English: 
but yeah, it hasn't really been a thing since like the 1970s.
I'm sure neo-nazis do read those books. I'm sure he's right about that
but neo-nazis don't represent modern 
German culture at all.
Now what he said about over 12,000 violent right-wing extremists in Germany in 2017, that's actually true.
However, that number refers to people
who are ready to use violence,
which means that not all of them actually have been violent
and I'm not saying that this isn't a problem for Germany,
it definitely is and so is the rise of another right-wing party the AFD in Germany,
but 12,000 out of 82 million is still a rather small number
and this definitely is not something that 
you'll see at every street corner in Germany.
So I'm not sure if I agree with his ranking here that this is really the number one reason not to live in Germany
but each to their own.
[Briggs] Alright, so that's today's list.
I hope you guys enjoyed it,
I hope you got some information out of it.
[Briggs] Maybe you want to stay away from Germany
at least know what you're getting into before you go there

French: 
mais oui, il n'a plus aucune importance depuis les années 70.
Je suis sûre que les néo-nazis lisent ces livres. Je suis sûre qu'il a raison à propos de cela
mais les néo-nazis ne représentent pas du tout la culture moderne allemande.
Maintenant ce qu'il dit à propos des 12000 violentes personnes d'extrême-droite en Allemagne en 2017, c'est vrai.
Cependant, ce nombre se réfère aux personnes prêtes à user de violence,
ce qui signifie que tous n'ont pas été violents
et je ne dis pas que ce n'est pas un problème pour l'Allemagne,
c'en est définitivement un, comme la montée d'un autre parti de droite (AFD) en Allemagne
mais 12000 sur 82 millions reste un petit chiffre
et ce n'est définitivement pas quelque chose que vous verrez à chaque coin de rue en Allemagne.
Alors je ne suis pas sûre si je suis d'accord avec son classement ici, que c'est vraiment la raison numéro une pour ne pas vivre en Allemagne
mais chacun son avis.
[Briggs] Bien, c'était donc la liste du jour. J'espère que vous l'avez aimé,
j'espère que vous avez obtenu des informations,
[Briggs] Peut-être que vous voulez rester loin de l'Allemagne, ou au moins vous savez à quoi vous attendre avant d'y aller

So this was a rather long reaction video
but I hope you guys learn something and who knows?
Maybe you agreed with him a lot more
than you agreed with me
but I have to say that,
out of those 10 reasons not to live in Germany,
I think I really only agree with two of them
as valid reasons why I really think
that would be a reason not to live in Germany
and that is the high taxes and the weather in Germany,
even though his description of our winter was a little bit off,
but the truth is that the weather isn't the best in Germany, it does rain a lot, it's not very reliable,
so I'm actually very glad that I got away from that,
Other than that, I'd say that maybe air conditioning would be a valid point
but I personally really only missed that
on very hot days in German
and whenever I want to work out at home, 
and, when you're used to how convenient everything is in the U.S,
it's definitely annoying that stores are closed on Sundays in Germany

[Briggs]
Soyez sympas entre vous, okay. Alors c'était une vidéo de réaction plutôt longue mais j'espère que vous avez appris quelque chose et qui sait ?
Peut -être que vous êtes plus d'accord avec lui que vous ne l'êtes avec moi
mais je dois dire que, de ces 10 raisons pour ne pas vivre en Allemagne,
je pense que je ne suis d'accord qu'avec deux d'entre elles
que je considère comme des raisons valides
pour ne pas vivre en Allemagne
et ce sont les taxes et la météo en Allemagne,
même si sa description de nos hivers était un peu à côté de la plaque,
mais la vérité est que la météo n'est pas la meilleure en Allemagne, il pleut beaucoup, ce n'est pas très fiable,
alors je suis très contente de m'en être éloignée,
A part ça, je dirais que la climatisation peut être un point valide
mais je n'en manque personnellement que lors des jours très chauds en Allemagne
et à chaque fois que je veux m'entraîner à la maison, et quand on est habitué à quel point tout est pratique aux Etats-Unis,
c'est définitivement ennuyeux que les magasins soient fermés les dimanches en Allemagne
