Bri, that may be so, but I'm pretty sure Till was using phrases and words that are well-known in the English-speaking world, rather than as per German conception of them. Lederhosen is up there with Sauerkraut and Bratwurst as an iconic German word IMO.
:O I NEVER NOTICED THAT, it makes me sad :( Lederhosen is probably the best German cliché
ReplyDeletePossibly because a lot of Germans see Lederhosen as Bayern and not German.
ReplyDeleteYes, I know that Bayern is part of Germany but a lot dont see it that way.
