To German Bluebirds, do a lot of German people speak English

Im thinking of going to Germany to do an IY placement and would like to know if many people speak English too, in the main cities?

Im going to start learning some German but just enquiring. Thank you!

I spent 10 years in Germany whilst serving in the British Army!

I also played football for several German teams and a large proportion of the younger Germans speak English, whilst the elder ones didn't speak English as much!

Okay cheers for the information. What I expected to be honest but thought I'd ask. Looks like I'll go ahead with it. Looks a lovely country and can go and watch some Bundesliga football and learn about another culture.

I regularly visit Stuttgart, but also visited Cologne, Karlsruhe and Heilbron and find many people are capable of speaking or understanding English as a second language.

If you visit libaries, banks, resturants and any other governmental insititutions you will find many people will be able to speak English.

Where are you thinking of going to?

Dortmund, Munich, Hamburg, Stuttgart, Berlin, Essen - Any of the big cities where I can get a placement really.

Been to all those cities and would recommend Munich over all the others!

Essen is very industrial as its part of the Ruhr industrial region, Dortmund was very militarised the last time I was there, although I believe all the British military have now moved out!
Berlin is okay, along with Stuttgart, but whilst all the cities have their plus points, Munich and Bavaria is stunning, very cultural and would be my preferred destination! Dachau concentration camp is worth a visit, along with Schloss Neuschwanstein, but the Bavarian Alps are a must, as they are absolutely beautiful!

Okay cheers. Munich and Dortmund were my preferred options but I think i'd take up any opportunity to go there on work placement to be honest. It'd be very interesting and a learning curve of life. Cheers, appreciated.

I thought you were a Serie A scout

Ive been in Germany for the last 16 years and can only recommend it if you get the chance. The sooner you start learning German the better. Its not as difficult as you might think.
You should be able to get by well with English as alot of people speak it but its always better to start with some German before asking if they speak english. Its a general respect thing and youll get loads of bonus points for it.
If you can get to a few Bundesliga games then do it, you wont be disapointed. The atmosphere is MUCH better than any ground in the UK. They still have Terraces and the Tickets are cheaper here. Youll get a season ticket for about 120€.
I always go to see city when im back in Wales but end up sitting alone because by father and brother have season tickets.
The FA should really wake up, terraces work all over Europe without any problem at all. Why not in the UK? You cant even take flags in fffs

Bloody should know English we did win the war after all.

Thats original, and quite pathetic really

Grow up ffs.......

Why pathetic? It's true. We also stationed thousands of troops there after the war defending them from the Russians.

Cheers mate for this!! Im definitely up for it and hopefully can get a placement. If not I'll just move over there once I finish my degree. Pointless being stuck in this depressing hell hole. May as well move if I get the chance.

More people probably speak English in Germany than in Aberystwyth, hillbillies galore up there.

Dont go to Berlin.

Dont go to Berlin.

Why?
Berlin is amazing.

Why assume that because we won the war they should all speak english?
That was 70 years ago ffs. Forget it, if you go back a bit further then the british were no angels neither.

Been to Germany a few times over the years and one place where I really like was Leipzig

Why not just re-title this thread:

"LOOK AT ME - IM GOING TO WORK IN GERMANY EVERYONE"

You transparent little tw*t

Your in University you c**t. You know full well that lots of young Germans speak English.
Same as most other European Countries.

Back in your cage Taffyapple!

I was lucky to learn German in school (tried French, just couldn't do it!) and it's easy to pick up. If in doubt, just say the English version of the word in a German accent!

Best of luck with whatever you choose to do. It's a life-changing decision.

Okay cheers. Munich and Dortmund were my preferred options...

2 cities with 2 of the sh1ttiest clubs then, just add Frankfurt and you got the triple...

I love the fact he says he wants to move out here but knows so little about the country that he doensnt even know if many speak English!

Think he'd be better going somewhere more his level like Shetland isles than coming over here.

Swansea would suit him.

Do me a f*cking favour. A random guess would tell most people that lots of young
people in Germany speak English. He's planning to go there to work, through Uni,
and hasnt any idea if he'll have anyone to talk to so he posts on here???

Attention seeking c**t he is.

Thats a guess though. I was asking bluebirds in Germany who have experienced living there. Not people who think they know.

Also, why would you assume a lot of Germans speak English? You mean like the many Brits that speak German? Oh right yeah I forgot they don't.

Always on a mission to abuse and belittle. Must live a terrific life.

calm down you 2
