If you need help with German for the Junior Certificate, Leaving Certificate or for University, look no further! I also help those who are simply interested in learning German, those who wish to move to a German speaking country or even native speakers who need help with the layout of the Junior or Leaving Certificate Exam Papers!

🎶🕺 It's really rare for social media feeds around the world to be flooded with German music - even funny music, something that Germans are not necessarily world-famous for. But in recent months, this has become an unthinkable reality. 

🥧👩 A song with a particularly catchy title for non-native speakers, ‘Barbaras Rhabarberbar’, appears in our feed with new dance numbers every day. From young to old, whoever is anyone on Tiktok or Instagram has already given their own interpretation of the dance.

🇦🇺🔜🗺️ However, it wasn't Bodo Wartke and Marti Fischer who started the trend, but two Tiktok dancers from Sydney. Their choreography was quickly picked up by dancefluencers with a wide reach, just for the fun of it.

🇩🇪🤪 We assume that hardly anyone really understands what the rap is about...in short, it's about a woman called Barbara (at least the name is internationally recognised), a bar and rhubarb pie. The rest of the content of the song is almost irrelevant, because it's not about the exciting plot, but the absurd string of tongue twisters and the phonetic gibberish that results. Of course, Bodo Warte didn't invent it, but it is well-known among native speakers and speech therapists.

☝️🤓 For those who have read this far, here's a little smart arse treat: In German, there is the expression ‘rhabarbern’ or ‘Laberrhabarber’: this denotes that someone babbles or talks without content. In the end, however, it is of course the wordplay and the hilarious sound that makes this expression popular. 16/06/2024
