Ah, then you're not a migrant, from our point of view, just a foreigner. That was confusing.
We use "migrant" to denote people who moved to Germany or have at least one parent who is not a German citizen at birth.
I guess you could be a migrant, from the Dutch point of view, but I don't know how they measure that.
we call that (second generation) immigrant (it me)
or at least, we used to call it that.. the central bureau of statistics now say "person with migrationbackground" bc of some reason i cannot recall since 5 years or so
but i think u mean to you im a foreigner bc not from germany? is that what u meant.. confused now too 😂
Ah, they probably changed it to match Germany. We call it "Mensch mit Migrationshintergrund".
Actually has little to do directly with ethnicity, which tends to confuse people.
It's not some sort of way to tell who the ethnic Germans are. We have no measure for that.
But, looking around at my childrens' age group, it must be a minority. They don't count. Most of their friends and schoolmates don't count...
It's actually more the case that lots of "migrants" are now essentially lumped in with "bio Germans". So, the definition is expanding, to continue to encompass a majority.
Same way Americans are redefining "white".
ye it becomes kinda meaningless to define someone as migrant after a couple generations deep
idk if it's comparable, ethnicity vs nationality
well eventually they merge and it then depends on who writes the history books what bc og or not i guess
bc=becomes
