Words are loaded with meaning. Certain ones conjure joyful memories and others remind us of less happy times.
For Nenda Neururer, the word 'oachkatzlschwoaf' invokes a range of emotions. The German word is very hard to pronounce and is synonymous with the Austrian state of Tyrol where locals tease outsiders by asking them to pronounce it.
Despite growing up in Tyrol, Nenda Neururer often felt like an outsider when confronted with this word. But when she moved to London she grew nostalgic for it and it became her little secret.
Found in Translation is a series made as part of the In The Mix project, in partnership with BBC Studios TalentWorks, Black Creators Matter and the Barbican.

That was very funny, very charming and, a bit melancholic. I love celebrating, or at least, trying to understand, other cultures; I don't understand the suspicions some people carry towards those who look, think, speak, or dress differently, though. How boring a world it would be, should everyone look, speak, etc., the same. And, you're very right: words are loaded with meaning - for good or bad. Thank you, BBC. Nicely done. :)

Really cool video, Nenda! You are sending a powerful and important message and some of us back here in Tirol just love to see and hear it! Keep it up, be sure to enjoy the angry comments and greetings von den Kunstschneebedeckten :]

When I moved to NZ as a child I did not look like, sound like or behave like everyone else there. I could not “blend in” even when I tried although I was the same “color”. People instinctively and unconsciously look for similarities and differences as it’s a basic human survival skill buried deep in our brains. I could not fault anyone for noting my differences and reacting to that. It’s human nature. I learned to cope with the way I stuck out, suffered it’s indignities and at the same time came to love the people and place that is NZ. Decades later, despite the challenges there I very much miss NZ and am a person of two countries in my heart 🤍

I grew up as an immigrant in Austria and properly pronouncing it was considered a rite of passage. Not a particularly good one, as plenty of natives can’t properly pronounce it themselves. 😅

"Eichhörnchenschweif" ist für Nicht-Deutsch Sprechende viel schwieriger auszusprechen als "Oachkatzlschwoaf".

In Afrika würden sie mich als Weißen wahrscheinlich auch fragen, woher ich komme. Ist doch ganz normal und verständlich.

Was it really about having dark skin making you suspect or was it just the fact that you didn't look Teutonic so they assumed you were an outsider with all of the normal suspicion attributed to outsiders?

This kind of Austria-bashing is unacceptable and far off from serious reporting.

Never piss off tbe Austrians, people never learn. This is why history is important for god's sake.

I didn't consider this Austria bashing. No country is immune to racism. Using humor to address/deal with serious topics isn't new. A modern example is the movie Jojo Rabbit. Austria is a beautiful country full of many fine people with a heart of kindness and compassion.
