<a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dTFMbQyGZno&amp;t=58">0:58</a> Untrue. The ß predates the grammatical rule that defines when you use it (i.e. after an elongated vowel). The Eszett only serves this purpose since the reform of 1996 (Rechtschreibreform von 1996). If you read things written from before then, you see it more or less randomly.<br>Some instances I remember off the top of my head are: &quot;Strasse&quot; instead of &quot;Straße&quot;, and &quot;daß&quot; instead of &quot;dass&quot;, which you sometimes still see older people write today.

&quot;Genuine Austrian dialects are actually further removed from Standard German than Danish is from Swedish — and Danish/Swedish are officially treated as separate languages.

Standard German is an abomination and a major reason modern German dubs are absolute garbage. And I give them a shot now and again but by god.
