(official and working language)German is spoken primarily in Germany (first language for more than 95% of the population), Austria (89%) and Switzerland (65%). The majority of the small population of Liechtenstein also speaks German. Other European German-speaking communities are found in Northern Italy (in the Province of Bolzano-Bozen and in some municipalities in other provinces), in the East Cantons of Belgium, in the French Alsace region which often was traded between Germany and France in history and in some border villages of the former South Jutland County (in German, Nordschleswig, in Danish, Sønderjylland) of Denmark. Some German-speaking communities can still be found in parts of the Czech Republic, Hungary, Poland, Romania, and above all Russia and Kazakhstan, although forced expulsions after World War II and massive emigration to Germany in the 1980s and 1990s have depopulated most of these communities. It is also spoken by German-speaking foreign populations and some of their descendants in Bulgaria, Cyprus, Egypt, Greece, Israel, Italy, Morocco, Netherlands, Portugal, Scandinavia, Spain, Turkey, United Kingdom, and the former Yugoslavia (Bosnia, Serbia, Macedonia, Croatia and Slovenia).

5. Some Ways a German Language Marketing Translation Go Sour
November 05, 2009
The German culture is known for many things, including a love of sauerkraut, but one lesser known fact is how exacting and precise is the language. As Mark Twain once wrote of a language student, in Stuttgart "he would rather decline two drinks than one German adjective." How right he was! The same culture that crafts world famous cars to extreme tolerances makes equally exacting demands on their spoken and written language. It's no surprise then that even large companies sometimes get it horribly wrong when attempting to convey their message in German.

8. Speaking in Tongues languages...
October 13, 2009
I was at the 2006 FIFA World Cup Finals.
The flight attendant's greeting aboard German Airlines felt to me like a have-a-good-day message or enjoy-the-flight customary greeting. Unable to decode the language she was speaking that sounded so cryptic to me, I just jumped into an assumption (logical I hoped) that what her sounds meant were words of goodwill, either have a good day or enjoy the flight. "You're now just few hours from the World Cup. It's our pleasure to bring you safely in Germany," she then translated after the cryptic words. None of my guesses was right. I then saw the bigg...

24. Standards for Buying a Language Translation
August 13, 2009
Buying a language translation is not easy. This is because Translation is not a commodity.

For example, you’ll obviously need to specify which languages you want your text translated from and into (e.g. French to English or German to Japanese).
