Notes:
When wags put on a fake German accent, they automatically change soft "g" sounds to "ch" sounds, so "Germany" is rendered, with varying results on the hilarity scale, as "Chermany." This may be as old as the country itself, at least orally, and in print it goes back at least as far as 1862:
"My mudder? I knows more'n my mudder now,' said the young countrywoman of Mrs.Bayard Taylor, 'but den you know dey doesn't learn much in Chermany,' she added, apologetically."
