ABOUT ME: Hallo, Servus, and welcome to my channel! My name is Felicia (Feli), I'm 26, and I'm a German living in the USA! I was born and raised in Munich, Germany but have been living in Cincinnati, Ohio off and on since 2016. I first came here for an exchange semester during my undergrad at LMU Munich, then I returned for an internship, and then I got my master's degree in Cincinnati. I was lucky enough to win the Green Card lottery and have been a permanent resident since 2019! In my videos, I talk about cultural differences between America and Germany, things I like and dislike about living here, and other experiences that I have made during my time in the States. Let me know what YOU would like to hear about in the comments below. DANKE :)

I’m 76 and I was a film editor in the late sixties and early seventies, and I heard old timers refer to editors as cutters or film cutter. It probably was only used among among themselves in Hollywood as a slang, but they were called “editors” on film credits. Cutter also had weird connotations, hence the more appropriate word, editor. Cutter also referred to men who cut patterns in garment-industry sweatshops in the late 1900s an early in the 20th Century.

"Cutter" hat mich sofort an das Teppichmesser erinnert.

I’m German and I use the word “Mixer” for both mixers and blenders. Ain’t nobody got time for the word “Handrührgerät“ 😂.

My husband’s niece and nephew were visiting from Germany. His nephew kept saying “lust” to me with the name of a place nearby. Since the word in English has a negative connotation I nervously called for my husband to translate. When I found out in German it is used differently. They wanted me to go with them to see the sights. We all had a good laugh and totally enjoyed the day 🙂

My cousin won't believe we don't call it a "Handy" in Canada. She also really didn't believe me when I told her what "a handy" usually refers to in English speaking countries.

Knowing the word "cellphone", will come in handy in the US

My German stepmother would say "private hair" when she talked about her wigs. Needless to say, it was a little disconcerting as an American to hear it described as such.

I'm a german living in Australia. I was very confused when someone pointed at a girl saying her dress is so short you can almost see her box.

So I'm from Britain, and I've found out from this video that Germany takes a lot of their meanings for English words from British English. The only one I haven't heard being used normally like how you have described here is "partnerlook" I think it's pretty cool how similar German is to British English and how different we are to America. Love your videos :)

In the Netherlands we say ‘übercool’ for something that is really brilliant.

After watching a handful of your videos and being enchanted both by the language itself and your delivery of content, I've decided to try my hand at learning German! 5 day learning streak going on Duolingo and really enjoying it!

Hey i’m dutch. We have a lot of the same language confusions. The word smoking comes from smoking jacket, an old name for formal wear, that comes from putting on a nice jacket to protect your expensive dress shirt from sparks when you go into the smoking room. Very fancy, just weirdly abbreviated. I think the word tuxedo is much stranger. It sounds more like a mexican dish, a tropical storm or a colourful accessory then a dress suit..

Container ist ein Wort, was mich immer kurz verwirrt. Im deutschen denkt man an einen großen Müllcontainer vor dem Haus. Und im englischen ist es einfach eine Aufbewahrungsbox (tuppadose XD)

Drive -in was also used for an old hamburger restaurant where you would park, then order your food from the car and a waitress would bring you your food. Sonic is a drive-in.
