Even over email! As someone who's working in a "small dinky town"-Verwaltung I can attest to that. We're doing what we can, but you can only bend the law so much.

Both avatars are based on the aquiline personification of the Bundesverfassungsgericht as imagined by political cartoonist Heiko Sakurai.

Is using "Euer Ehren" instead of "Herr Vorsitzender" or a mistake on part of the cartoonist?

Kopijeger posted:Is using "Euer Ehren" instead of "Herr Vorsitzender" or a mistake on part of the cartoonist? "Euer Ehren" is the stereotypical address for judges. The actual recommendation is "Frau Bundesverfassungsrichterin" or "Herr Bundesverfassungsrichter", respectively. edit: ah just understood what you wanted to say. "Euer Ehren" is a Hollywood import. But yeah, you don't call the constitution judges "Vorsitzende" either. Honj Steak fucked around with this message at 22:24 on Sep 16, 2015 |

In practice its only used in very formal settings. Normally it would just be Madam Chancellor, Mr. Ambassador, etc.

Lol at these rules. Did they ever had to address Guttenberg with "Durchlauchtheit" because of this?
|
# ? Sep 17, 2015 09:52 |
|
Nope, because “Durchlaucht“ is a title of nobility, which was formally abolished in 1919. You can call him that (or whatever the correct way of addressing someone of his rank would be) if you want to be polite, but there's no need to. Now when you're working for the Auswärtiges Amt and have write a formal invitation to some English lord or whatever, it would be expected of you to address him as your lordship/your grace/your royal highness or whatever, as the law over there still knows titles of nobility.

Hey Germany thread, the 182. Oktoberfest is now officially open. Please mind where you vomit and if you see some young chick or guy with no alcohol in their hands please do the needful and offer to pay for the next round. Munich is a student town and most student can't afford to get blackout drunk on the October anymore, thanks to tourist pushing prices every year! Also, try to pass out lying on your side and stuff you wallet in your underpants before you lose consciousness! Have fun!

I ended up as "Diplom-Verwaltungswirt des allgemeinen nicht-technischen gehobenen Verwaltungssienstes in der Besoldungsgruppe Amtsrat A12" as "Job". "Beamter auf Lebenszeit" is a "öffentlich-rechtliches Dienst und Treueverhältnis" so I don't even work based on contract but as a service for a "Anstalt des öffentlichen Rechts" which may have "Beamte" in duty by law ( § 121 BRRG iirc). Beeing Beamter is SO deutsch ;-)

As opposed to ungesicherte Armut working for a business In addition, while you can't go on strike, the German state will grind to a halt when you carry out Dienst nach Vorschrift.

Cingulate posted:I honestly don't understand how this sentence is supposed to work, linguistically. What is he saying the Greens managed to win back? It seems it can only be "de[r] Verlust der Hälfte der eigenen Wählerschaft". "Doch hatten nicht gerade die Grünen zwischen 1998 und 2002 nach Kosovo und Afghanistan bewiesen, dass man selbst den Verlust der Hälfte der eigenen Wählerschaft durch Beharrlichkeit und Überzeugen zurückgewinnen kann?" Wen kann man zurückgewinnen? (Den Verlust) (der Hälfte) (der (eignenen) Wählerschaft). Can't find anything wrong with that sentence. We love our long convoluted sentences.

"Verlust zurückgewinnen" means exactly that in this context. If you win back a loss, you get back whatever you lost before. In this case, we're talking about a German political party winning back voters they had lost in earlier elections. I know German can be a bit convoluted sometimes, but the meaning is crystal clear this time.
