German Language Day
It’s one of the longest words in German and something to consider on National German Language Day, which occurs every September 10.
“Rindfleischetikettierungsüberwachungsaufgabenübertragungsgesetz” may seem like gibberish to the non-German language speaker. In actuality, this word (which we won’t even attempt to pronounce) is now obsolete. It translates as “Beef labeling monitoring delegation Act.” And yet, today, we mourn its loss.
German is the language of poets Bertolt Brecht, Rainer Maria Rilke and the classic Weimar-era cinema.   To promote the language and encourage more people to learn it, the German Language Association (VDS) created this day 17 years ago, helping to revive the speaking of German across the globe.
German Language Day timeline
1st century B.C. The first recorded use of German
Historical records reveal that ancient Romans were in contact with German speakers.
1522 Lutherbibel is published
Luther translates the Bible into German, providing a people's alternative to the dominance of Latin.
1981 Famous German war movie, "Das Boot," is released
Directed by Wolfgang Peterson, this German classic earned fame all over the world.
2001 German Language Day debuts
The German Language Association (VDS) celebrated this day for the first time, embarking on an endeavor to promote the German language, worldwide.
German Language Day Activities
German, anyone?
Read a German classic
Have a beer. Prost!
Learning German can be a whole lot of fun, especially when you actually get a chance to use it on a European trip. But if you can't travel to Germany, right here in the United States, there are German pastry shops or bookstores where you can try out what you've learned.
Even an English translation will do. Because the more that you read, the more you'll learn. National German Language Day is also a great day to watch some classic German horror films like "Nosferatu" or "The Cabinet of Dr. Caligari."
Okay, so this is not exactly Oktoberfest. But as far as we know, anything German calls for a cold beer. And a meaty, bratwurst!
5 Facts About The German Language That Will Untwist Your Tongue
It's the sixth most widely-spoken language
German is the language of writers and thinkers
German and English are sister languages
Unlike English, German has three genders
German has some funny proverbs
By ranking, these are the most widely-spoken languages in the world: Chinese (encompassing both Mandarin and Cantonese,) English, Hindi-Urdu, Spanish, Russian and German.  It's also the most widely-spoken language in Europe. Gut gemacht!
Goethe, Schiller, Brecht, Marx, Nietzsche — great thinkers all, were masters of the German language.
Both languages are a part of the West Germanic languages. German and English have greatly influenced each other’s cultures and sometimes, there's also a little sibling rivalry!
Masculine, feminine, and neuter. If that's hard to wrap your mind (and your mouth) around; some languages, like Polish, have six grammatical genders!
"Das ist nicht dein Bier" translates as, "that’s not your beer." But what it really means is, "this is none of your business, stay out!"
Why We Love German Language Day
German is the most widely-spoken language in Europe
Language and culture go hand-in-hand
Forgetting your mother tongue is a real loss
Spoken by 95 million people worldwide, German is the native language of Germany, Austria, Switzerland and Liechtenstein. Plus, it's fascinating when one German word contains 80 letters!
In a world where English is becoming the go-to language on the international stage; individual countries are working hard to maintain their own national lingua franca. Reviving the German language is also an attempt to preserve the culture and history of Germany.  But if you want to learn contemporary German, watch German television on National German Language Day.
For German children living outside Germany, learning and speaking their mother tongue is one of the most important ways they can connect to their culture and heritage. It's also an added asset to be bilingual or even trilingual in today's international business climate.

sam winchester, laptoppin it up :)
I feel like it's either extremely obvious that I've watched all 15 seasons of spn (11 of them as they were airing on tv) or somehow Not Obvious, despite the fact that I semi regularly reference it in one way or another.
god. anyway. sam. I will never recover from the poetic tragedy of sam. praying while being marked down as lucifer's vessel. the constant focus on wanting to be clean, the way free will versus pre-determination is in a constant state of narrative friction just by his character existing. the scope of horror in being damned and doomed before you were even born, by your own mother. wow. character of all time.

Okay yall I’m CONVINCED this has to be because it was my birthday!!!!!!
Tumblr media
Like the game let’s you celebrate your birthday in game for 1 week and literally since the day it started my pulls have been fucking wild????
Like I got Rafayel in my first 10 pull and then when I did a 10 pull with the pity guarantee, I got not just Zayne who was my precise wish, but Xavier too (so both the limited cards I didn’t have) AND an extra Zayne so I could rank him up a level?????
This cannot be a coincidence, especially with getting a 5 star on two separate non-pity 10 pulls, there’s just no way skdjksks
If anyone else has a birthday coming up soon and they have the means to test this theory out please do and tell me the results because this has been absolutely insane!!!!

"No man knows, till he experiences it, what it is to feel his own life-blood drawn away into the veins of the woman he loves"
I missed this in previous readings, but it makes it all that more significant that all of Lucy's suitors donate their blood. I just. Hm. Well done Stoker.
(Also Jonathan Sims made this line Something Else, holy fuck)
