CSU: Immigrants should speak German at home, CDU says LOLwhat ?

[Ban my account ffs!]

Well... Sollten is the equivalent of should while sollen would be shall or must.  I think "strongly encouraged" would be the best english translation.

Al put it best
"The language I speak at home is none of your f""king business"

I would add that if you have a problem with that, kindly eff off.

I think all German speaking people should speak Hochdeutsch at home.  And in the Schule und Arbeitsplatz as well.  These ramshackle, outmoded dialects should be discouraged and teachers and bosses should punish people who still insist on chipping away at a unified German culture by speaking their native language privately among their close friends and families.
