this comedian is such exelent - i can´t even laugh about some of his jokes because i think "damn he is right and nobody knows" . but i love seeing him on television .

by the way - very good translation

I'd just watched Georg Schramm as a Lt. Oberst or something talking about the Bundeswehr and my first impression was: wtf? but after a few minutes I recognized that he was joking and all this grap about some strange tatcics of Hitler were faked.

Hes really a great actor.

@Kubus77 Sorry, but verifiably there are quite a few errors and omissions. "Spoiling for a fight", for example, doesn't exist in English (but: "to kick up a fuss"). "Master prince" doesn't exist either. It's supposed to read "chieftain" or "warlord" ... etc. etc. etc. A faulty word-by-word translation like this spoils the tenor of Schramm's bite and irony (incredibly rough). And: there's no mention of Hitler. But we have to thank the translator for the upload and effort!

@JBS283 Also ich komme aus dem Staunen nicht mehr raus. Die Übersetzung ist leider ziemlich schlecht. Siehe meine Anmerkungen unter "groppermilk" oder auch meinen letzten Kommentar zu "jazzyfunkaholic".

Sorry, but I'm a professional translator. Near enough is not good enough. But we have to thank the translator for the upload and effort!

@SahRacer01 Nein, die Übersetzung ist leider nicht gut. Ich habe das unten ausgeführt. Es gibt nachweislich viele Auslassungen. "Spoiling for a fight" (???) gibt es im Englischen nicht. "Fight" (zu neutral) trifft die Ironie von "Krawall" nicht. "Master prince" gibt's im Englischen nicht (eine Erfindung!) . Das muss "tribal chief", "chieftain" oder "warlord' heißen ... usw., usw. Lieb, dass der Übersetzer sich überhaupt die Mühe gemacht hat, aber dat is nich so doll ... sorry. Trotzdem Dank!

@groppermilk Naja ist halt kein Einheimischer. Die deutsche Sprache ist mit eine der komplexesten ;)

[JazzyFunkaHolic]

Great translation! I'm german ;)

@groppermilk moreover the sync sucks (subs partially more than 5s ahead of vid) ... if punchlines, audience-responses etc. fail to match the related text-passages (and vice versa), watching the video becomes redundant. one could read it in text format instead of... (since ironic subtexts aren't conveyed appropriately anyway, ... )

@groppermilk so what ? i am no native speaker . so sometmes mistakes happen . don`t be that harsh . by the way : what is wrong with the translation ?
