Do most people in Munich, Germany speak English?

most people in Munich, Germany, speak Kauderwelsch... *g*...

.

Munich is really a large city with: cafe, nightlife and accommodation listings, with hotelbye , you can have a look. Munich may be the capital city of Bavaria and the third-most populous city in Germany. For centuries the seat of the Dukes, Electors, and Kings of Bavaria, the Munich Residenz is without question one of Europe's many magnificent palaces. Presented around eight big courts, the great resident complex comprises three major sections: the Königsbau, fronting into Max-Joseph-Platz; the Alte Residenz, facing Residenzstrasse; and the Festsaalbau (Banqueting Hall) overlooking the Hofgarten. The very first section with this big complicated to be built was the superb Antiquarium, built in 1579 and now area of the excellent Residenz Museum. Munich is really a town with a lot of record, make sure to explore it whole.

Munich is a student city, so most younger people will be quite fluent in English, but the working population will only know the basics or will resist to speaking English at all, for fear of they might make some embarassing mistakes. But, basically, in all of Germany, there is quite a good knowledge of English.

It is, however, helpful, as I keep repeating in this section, which is called "travel", to know as a tourist some basic phrases of the country you're visiting, like "good day" ("Guten Tag"), "entschuldigen Sie bitte" ("excuse me please"), "thank you" ("danke"), "sprechen Sie...?" ("do you speak...?") -- Even if it's not actually NECESSARY to know, it can make you friends in less than a minute.

And, remember, you might be all alone in a car and meet a sign like this:

"Parken nur für Anwohner Sa-So 7:00 - 19:00, Fe/Fei frei"

I had to riddle around with that altough I'm native and had it explained to me by an "Anwohner" (a person living in that street), so, as I understood:

Parking is only allowed for Anwohners, but on Saturdays (Samstag) and Sundays (Sonntag) [Sa-So], you can park your car between 7 am and 7 pm there but have to move it overnight, EXCEPT it's a school holiday (Fe = Ferien) or a state holiday (Fei = Feiertag).

Simple as that is, state holidays and school holidays vary from state to state, so HOW THE HELL am I supposed to know when exactly "Ferien" are? Seriously, I got no kids. THEY would know.

Germans are reallly good at English. Especially in the big cities. Most people will speak English but it is basic english... nothing too fluent. However, you will meet a lot of people who can speak fluently.

Well yes, we Germans seem to learn english faster than other countries, however it is often with a strong accent but yet at least 90% of all the population even in rural areas will speak english as it has bit obligatory to learn it in school for at least 3 years.

Yes, many speak with an accent and is broken English. Still one can manage with English without knowing German.
