Some other amusing German videos - phyrrus9 - 10-16-2016

Fun fact, the word for give/gift in german is actually shenk (like shank)

It's schenke. Schenke means also tavern, it's really about how you use the word in a sentence.
Nouns are always capitalized in German, that's how you can instantly tell the difference if it's in writing.

Did I mention my spelling is terrible... Writing in english, german, russian, and 5 different programming languages makes it really hard to tell which ruleset youre using

It's not a big deal, really. Just figured I'll point that out.
I invested more time in spoken languages than programming ones because I moved to different countries and I had to familiarize myself with their stuff obviously. Adapting to completely new environments can be hard sometimes.

What did the Germans ever do to you?

The emphasis generated In the German pronunciation and body language Is priceless.
Ever since you've contributed these videos, I've grown to love the German accent/pronunciation more so than ever.
