Do you know which is the most "rude" city in the world? You will be
Berlin

A very interesting study has recently been published which lists some of the most 'arrogant' cities in the world for 2022.

In their annual poll, Time Out Magazine polled more than 27,000 residents from cities around the world from Melbourne to Madrid, Chicago to Copenhagen and Tel Aviv to Tokyo to come up with some truly intriguing conclusions.

According to the thousands of people who participated in this index, Miami was named the third rudest city in the world, ahead of Hong Kong in second place and Berlin in first!

The three roughest cities are also some of the most attractive and advanced metropolises in terms of art, technology, food and cultural activities.

Meanwhile, Manila – the capital of the Philippines – was voted the least rude city in the world.

But why exactly Berlin?

We should not be surprised at all.

Being 'arrogant' is a characteristic that comes with being a Berliner – and the latter wear this part of their personality very proudly!

And why is Berlin so proud of its 'roughness'?

Actually, it's quite simple.

In the German capital, rudeness is part of everyday life. There is even a term for this and it is precisely: Berliner Schnauze

Berliners are proud of their Schnauze: literally 'snout' or 'nočkë' which in Albanian would resemble the expression 'turivarur!' or 'Don't hang the mugs!' – an expression that apparently should never be said to a proud Berliner!

Berliner Schnauze is said to be an expression that originated in the working-class dialect of the German capital.

Characterized by a staccato rhythm, harsh sounds, biting irony and a particular hatred for 'poseurs' or fake people, this dialect is often quite difficult to understand even by Germans coming from other cities.

Historians have highlighted the origin of this dialect in the period when Berlin began to transform into a modern industrial city. Various European peoples migrated to Berlin causing this very special dialect to borrow words and sounds from other languages, from French to Yiddish or Yiddish - a language spoken by Jews living in Central and Eastern Europe before the Holocaust .

So next time you're in Berlin, be careful because in the Time Out Index survey, a full 55% of Berliners surveyed described their city as rude, but it seems clear that most of them don't see this characteristic as anything at all negative, they even pride themselves on being a Berliner Schnauze!
