Join us as Claudia, Bastian, and Michael discuss the 5th Season in Germany and Austria.
Karneval is an annual focal point for many Europeans and celebrated for several months - the 5th season.
We're comparing notes from Southern and Central Germany, with some of the Austrian experiences during this season.
###
Also, coming up at the GAI, on February 8th, our in-house Karneval, including the GAI's Amateur Drag Competiton. For every competition entry (entries are free) the Germanic-American Institute will donate $50 to JustUs Health, an organization that works for equitable health care access for folks who are living with HIV and the LGBTQ+ community. Bar tips will also be donated to JustUs Health. Find all the information here

Idioms - phrases that are difficult to translate, sometimes they make no sense at all when translated verbatim, so we're trying to unlock the mystique behind common German idioms.

As always, if you have any suggestions for topics or guests, please let us know - we love to answer your content questions! Email us at: language@gai-mn.org and we'll include your request in the next episode. :)

Have a happy Karneval - 5th season, and we'll see you on the 8th!
