    Hans must be really clean if every employee washes him every time they use the restroom.

      “Don’t forget to scrub” doesn’t appear to be correct German either.

      Most Germans wouldn’t notice. I didn’t. It is a very common mistake among Germans.

        It’s not a mistake. It’s just a feature of spoken German to contract long pronouns or indefinite articles.

      Yeah totally incorrect german spelling as opposed to the very german words “don’t”, " forget", “to” and “scrub”?

        But the prompt to scrub the wiener implies a motion towards the object (the rag goes towards the wiener), hence you need to use the accusative case. It’s the same in English, just that the case declensions are one and the same for all cases.

        Well, the audience possibly would have had too hard a time understanding “Vergiss nicht, meinen Schniedel zu schrubben”

          Which is how we arrive at some intersection between languages where grammar is irrelevant and needs no correction.

      The sign would normally say “hands” but instead it says “Hans” which is a German name.

    I feel like the wrong penis slang is used. ‘Schwanz’ is a synonym that rhymes nicely with ‘Hans’, whilst maintaining aliteration with ‘scrub’.

      As a native German speaker, “Schwanz” is more like “dick”, pretty vulgar and crude. “Schniedel” was originally used around children and has a cute and somewhat humorous connotation. I think it’s the better fit here.

        As a swamp German, I’ll take your word for it. Allthough vulgar humor speaks to the child in me.

    Dict.cc translates der Schniedel as “doodle”, “talkywacker”, or “swizzle stick”. So that seems fitting.
