What president said something wrong in German?

The legend went that John F Kennedy said "I am a jelly donut" when he was speaking in Berlin when he was trying to say "I am a Berliner" because Berliner Pfannkuchen means jelly donut in German and is usually shortened to Berliner in some parts of Germany. However, in Berlin, that phrase isn't used, instead jelly donuts are referred to as Pfannkuchen in Berlin. So, really the jelly donut myth is simply that, a myth.

What does ich bin ein Berliner mean?

The phrase Ich bin Berliner translates as I am a Berliner. N.b. it is not necessary in German to include the indefinite article (Ich bin ein Berliner) in such a sentence. It was famously made by JF Kennedy during his famous Berlin speech on June 26, 1963. The indefinite article is only required in sentences with non-human subjects.As a result of this "inadvertent" inclusion, Kennedy's famous claim is often affectionately translated by Germans as I am a jam doughnut (Berliner is a German word for jam doughnut)


What are some of the most famous quotes by presidents?

"Ich bin ein Berliner" John F. Kennedy. Funny story about it is he was saying "I am a citizen of Berlin." Breaking into German and saying that was supposed to convey that we are one people, despite borders and philosophies. However, his German grammar was a little off. He should have said "Ich bin Berliner." The fact that he added 'ein' made him say literally "I am A Berliner." Unfortunately for JFK, in Berlin, a Berliner is a jelly donut. So, in one of the most famous moments in polictical history, the president actually said "I am a jelly donut." To JFK's defense, most Germans knew immediately what he actually meant. I have spoken to German people who said that no German would have been at all confused by it, though they would have registered it as improper grammar. but those with a mischievous sense of humor (myself included) certainly enjoyed the absurdity of taking what he said literally. I believe the words before the German were in the gist of "I speak for all Americans when I say 'Ich bin ein Berliner' (I am a jelly donut). :> "If i had two faces, do you think id be wearing this one?"
