[quote:D. Bunker:MV8xMjIzNzUwXzE5OTE4MzA4XzZGQTlEMjgz] [quote:Anonymous Coward 1076086] Me like an immigrant of Germany, it was a very big target, to learn German perfectly - it took many years; but as I began to study and did travel through Germany, too, I made a discovery: There are too many dialects in Germany, and all people think, that their dialect is the true one, and that the official German, you learn in the school, is a dialect, too. So, the German you learn in Hannover is a different one, you learn in Bavaria; also, when you are a teacher from the south Germany, and you go to middel Germany, to teach German, you will realize, that the school mates laugh at you - so you go back to your home south Germany, because you begin to feel like an alien in the another region of Germany; so, please, tell me, what is the real idea behind "speak German", when the most Germans do not like to speak the official German?! [/quote] I think it would be nearly impossible for someone to learn German as a second language and be indistinguishable despite which regional dialect and or accent you try and adopt. [/quote]

Attempts to build a multicultural society in Germany have "utterly failed", Chancellor Angela Merkel says.
"Anyone who does not immediately speak German", she said, "is not welcome".
