If you only had one night in Munich, which Christmas market would you pick, Medieval Market, Marienplatz, or Sendlinger Tor? And if you’ve been before, what did we miss?
Great markets review!
Another fantastic video guys, I love the look and feel of the Medieval Market!
As always, you two are so much fun to watch! Thank you for sharing your Christmas Market adventures.
It looks like you had a ball guys! I hope you had a great Christmas and have a happy new year!
Great video! 👍 In Germany, there's a saying: "Only cash is king." Medieval markets take place throughout the year in Germany. We live our culture. Greetings from Radevormwald, Germany.
Chris totally nailed german language!
And I totally love how you get drunker and drunker during the video <3
The German Z sounds like the English ts sound in bits.
a=something like the 'uh' in D'uh!
ä=English a as in Batman. ez ^^.
E=something like the first E in Everglades…approximately.
say English E and while doing that constantly round ur lips=now you can do German Ö sound.
German ch sound is like the first H in the name Hugh.
Sometimes it is pronounced as a K, just like in English–>chemistry-christmas:chamomille-charter.
It varies.
56% of all articles are female, and all plural are female article "die" pronounced dee.
So, use die for pl and sl and be almost always right. 🙂

au=ow

French lean words are, contrary to most English French lean words, are still being pronounced French, albeit being written a bit differently sometimes.
