police team buses Big cars with six seven or eight police officers inside Right here at this intersection We are on Eberswalder Street in Berlin and it's especially lively here This is already a hotspot for celebrating and going out Now on New Year's Eve it's even more special Especially many people are here There is also a bit of an aggressive mood sometimes Many people are here many people are celebrating Just so you know when you come to Germany It's a bit crazy this whole mood here What did you have planned for this evening We just want to have fun and slide smoothly into the new year Yes and get up healthy again tomorrow What do you wish for and what are you standing for For a lot of happiness and health No nonsense man for a party really Well what do you wish for What What do you wish for in the new year Just a really awesome new year I'm not sure exactly Thank you What would you like for the new year Okay well Dear viewers it is now exactly midnight The new year has begun It's the highlight of this New Year's party Honestly even I as a German am a bit shocked What was going on here There's a war in the background You have already seen that we have interviewed a few people They asked what they wish for their New Year She has already messed up once or twice But now it's a state of emergency It's hard to believe what we can experience here Yes dear viewers that was really it from us today Silvester was a bit crazy We hope you've gotten a little impression How the Germans celebrate New Year's Eve We hope you enjoyed it Write to us in the comments how you celebrate New Year in Bavaria That would interest us so much I think it's probably more peaceful there than here Write it in the comments Thank you for watching thank you for your support See you next week with Easy German You have to say goodbye Goodbye What is special about Germany and what one doesn't have internationally in English they say Happy New Year Before and after New Year's or before and after the new year In Germany there are two different wishes Happy New Year on December 31st before 12 AM and people say "Happy New Year" after midnight And if you say "Happy New Year" in Germany earlier Then comes the misfortune that the Germans think That means hello Yeah hello everything okay Everything clear yes That means if you say "Happy New Year" beforehand you can't say it This is a special language tip for you If you want to wish your friends a Happy New Year You need to know whether you are there before or after midnight on December 31st Because before that it's "Happy New Year" and after that it's "Happy New Year"
