The German language around the world

German is one of the most widely spoken languages in the world. An estimated 100 million people worldwide have learnt German in their lifetime. Add to that the 128 million native speakers of German, and it makes the language one of the 10 most important languages in the world.

In view of increasing globalisation, fluent communication is of great importance in the world of business. At the present moment, Germany is the largest national economy in Europe and the fourth-largest in the world. However, even without direct trade relations with Germany, German is frequently used as a lingua franca – a common language – in business dealings.

The language itself is shaped by the strong influences of the Roman Empire, meaning there are many connections to Latin. Approximately 21% of German nouns were originally foreign words that now enrich its vocabulary, like the many so-called anglicisms taken from English. In their free time Germans pursue their Hobby, perhaps going to a Fitnessstudio to work out while, in the world of work, Brainstorming is a widely used way of collecting ideas.

In the same way, German also influences other languages, something that can be seen in kindergartens across the US, while the English word doppelganger, meaning a person with a striking resemblance to another, unrelated person, is taken from German, too. When Swedish speakers want to describe a sensitive, attentive way of dealing with people or objects, they recourse to the German word Fingerspitzengefühl, which literally means a ‘fingertip feeling’.

We take care of the details!

The following examples make clear just how critical some details can be in German, such as how the use and misuse of capital letters or a space can change the sense of the whole phrase.

German “Die Spinnen” vs “Die spinnen

Translation: “The spiders” vs “They are crazy”

German “Der gefangene Floh” vs “Der Gefangene floh

Translation: “The captured flea” vs “The prisoner escaped”

German “fortgefahren” vs “fort gefahren” vs “Ford gefahren

Translation: “continued” vs “driven away” vs “driven in a Ford”

Our translators have the necessary Fingerspitzengefühl to recognise nuances and translate them accordingly. We only ever assign translations to native speakers of the target language, so that texts are not simply translated word-for-word, but also with consideration for particular cultural expressions and linguistic customs. We can then ensure that your text expresses exactly what you would like to put across, avoiding any misunderstandings across linguistic or cultural barriers.
