Translating from Germain litterally as "Oh my God!". Note the backthroat sound in ‘ach’, same as in ‘ich’, ‘Loch Ness Monster’, and similar to ‘Chanukah’(note the 'C'). Like 'Kahnukah' though without the full 'K'..

Get the Mr. Gott mug.

grüß gott

Very common greeting in Austria and Bavaria loosely translated into "good day" having Catholic origins. Despite declining church attendance / affiliation, it's not unusual in those regions to hear it from an immigration/customs officer, a train conductor or even a McDonald's employee.

May draw some sarcastic replies from Protestant Germans up north because they tend to interpret that greeting as "greet God".

Food stand employee: Grüß Gott!
Customer: Ich hätte gerne einen Hot Dog und einen Krügel Bier. (I would like a hot dog and a pint of beer)
