Talk:Bernd das Brot

Humor

You must see this in germany with English Subtitles. Every country has his own humor. But in english it is not so good, because german fairy tales like "Mrs. Holle" not exist in english language.—Preceding unsigned comment added by 87.164.117.156 (talk) 12:45, 25 March 2010 (UTC)

The article Frau Holle or "Mother Hulda" exists since 2005. 217.250.236.60 (talk) 15:22, 20 September 2024 (UTC)

Bernd's 'kidnap' and rediscovery

As there seems to be some difference of opinion between myself and Entrophie, I thought it would help to discuss any changes about the theft of the Bernd figure here, rather than enter into an edit war.

Here are the reasons why I've been changing Entrophie's recent edits:

• kidnap/theft - while it's true that the Bernd figure was stolen, it was staged as a kidnap, as shown by the 'hostage' video that was released. All of the articles I've read about the episode describe it as a kidnap, including the references at the bottom of the wiki article. The 'kidnap' angle appears significant, so as long as it's clear that we're talking about a resin figure, I don't believe anyone would be confused by the current wording.

• name of the activists - one of the links at the bottom of the article refers to the name of the activist group, so it may cause confusion if the name is removed from the wiki article.

• found by chance/ found by pupils - the article I read about the discovery of the figure simply said that it was found by chance. I don't know of any source that says it was found by children (if you know of one, please cite it). In fact I've just found an article that says it was found by five 'young people' from the Flugplatz Nohra society who were investigating the derelict buildings for 'Zeitzeichen' (time signals?). I imagine these were either teens or young adults, since I doubt such a society would allow children to take part in this kind of activity for safety reasons. At any rate, 'by chance' appears correct, while there's some debate about who exactly found the figure.

I hope that helps. If you disagree with any of my decisions, please discuss any issues here first rather than plan revision pingpong. Best wishes, Jammycaketin (talk) 17:14, 15 March 2009 (UTC)

"Zeitzeichen" means "Signs of a time", that is, relics. Judging from my own childhood German kids are very capable of telling their parents stuff on a need-to-know basis as well as taking precaution that the need to know doesn't arise.

„Berndi“, not „Bernti“

They don’t call him that with a t, it's „Berndi“ with a d. Did the creator of this article never learn German grammars? Sorry, but it triggered me. 2A0F:74C0:800:3C00:99B8:7CC1:F1B6:9F0F (talk) 19:25, 14 February 2023 (UTC)
