Today we are covering a very well-known German hip-hop song: “MfG” by the group Die Fantastischen Vier. We’ll also learn a lot of German acronyms and how German grammar treats acronyms. Finally, knowing the German acronyms featured in this song will enable you to understand a lot of things better - not just German texts and conversations but also culture.
Listen to an excerpt of today’s song at Amazon.com. Americans can also buy a legal mp3 of the full song right there; international visitors will have to go to 7digital instead.
