Not for the first time and probably not the last , the broadcasters of a game involving Germany put the words of the German national anthem on the screen but started with 'Deutschland, Deutschland uber alles...' They got the umlaut on 'uber' (hooray!)but didn't appreciate how offensive the words were (boo!). Germany stopped using those words in 1991.It's no good saying that those words are not quite as imperialist or threatening as they appear to outsiders, they are not used now because they are associated with the Third Reich and have unfortunate connotations.The country now uses the third verse of the original anthem of 1922, which is all about brotherly love and friendship, and not the first verse, which has the unhappy words.

Does this sound about right?(Been "Google Sprechened")
quote:
Wenn in der Theorie, Hitler habe einen "Deutschland" über die Proportionen (und den Krieg gewonnen!)
Stellen Sie alle politisch korrekten Merkliste Hitler-Klone marschieren über die Europäische Landschaftskonvention alle Kontrolle über einander!
Das ist eine dachten, wir würden alle nicht gerne wissen,
Aber ... Die Europäische Gemeinschaft hat sich ein vernünftiges Faksimile von Hitlers Traum in den letzten Jahren
