Actually, quite the opposite - I’m pointing out that the German language is better at making the distinction between a true act of creation and something as trivial as writing a comment on Lemmy.
It’d sure be interesting to hear how you can pronounce capitalized words. Works in Terry Pratchett’s discworld novels, not sure how you pull that one off though.
Written German capitalizes all nouns, which you probably already knew, given your apparent obsession with German stereotypes. Doesn’t change the fact that you just tried to tell me “creator” and “Creator” are two different nouns just because you capitalized one of them.
Well, guess what Detective Bosch, nouns can refer to more than one thing. And in English, the language of discourse, you capitalize nouns if they refer to a title. Like detective or Detective.
But since you can’t tell when it’s pronounced, you can tell in two ways: the German way is you YELL IT, or … and this is going to be tough for a German, you can tell from context.
I’ll give you a break now, probably time for you to get back to ze factory and make more shitty cars.
Well, you yell it if you’re actually Austrian and you wear a silly little moustache to make up for having one ball.
I’m sure you’re familiar with trying to make up for personal deficiencies of any kind by other behaviors, such as trying to provoke me into reacting aggressively to your constant attempts to insult me using my German nationality.
You’d be surprised how little I care, because I don’t view myself as a German but as a European. But in case you’ve been unhappy with one of our cars you bought and that’s what made you so resentful towards Germans, thanks for the cash nonetheless.

So do we, creator vs Creator. But since there’s no such thing as a god or “Creator”, it’s really irrelevant.
Can we talk about your shitty cars now?

Also, I never built a car. Sorry.
Typical German reply. If you can’t pronounce capitalized words, why is your written language full of them?

You care exactly three paragraph’s worth.
I find this little dialogue entertaining, so it’s probably not the kind of caring you imagine.
