Useful German Party Phrases

Most likely the Germans are not the first nation that comes to mind when talking about party people. Somehow the Germans have a reputation for being hard workers and more serious than most. I still haven't figured out how the Germans managed to fool the world into believing that they are so conscientious about their work. The reality is in fact very different. Not only do the German's enjoy comparatively short working weeks but they also have some of the longest holidays. That's why whenever you travel abroad it's almost inevitable that you will meet Germans. Also now more than ever, young Germans value quality of life above the trappings of climbing the corporate ladder.

A popular German pastime is of course watching football and celebrating in style with plenty of flowing lager when their team wins. You might be surprised to discover that the Germans have an incredibly rich variety of funny German words and phrases to talk about partying because it's such a popular activity. A fun example is the German expression "die Sau rauslassen" (lit. to let the pig out), which means to paint the town red. I think you'll agree that this popular german phrase is wonderfully descriptive and is a great way to describe mayhem in bars and on the streets when the national football team wins important international matches.  More funny German words to describe intense party commotion are "eine Bombenstimmung" (literally a bomb atmosphere) and "das Remmidemmi", which is pure mayhem.

As already mentioned, more than anything else international football victories inspire some of the longest and wildest German parties. The German literally party until they drop or in German "Sie feiern bis zum Abwinken". So the next time you're on the lookout for a party holiday destination, I can highly recommend visiting Germany - especially if it's during the football World Cup! Also if you do decide to visit Germany be sure to learn cool German phrases before you go and you'll be sure to make loads of friends.
