Deutsch

NOT Dutch!

Deutsch ~ The German word for German.
As in "Ich Spreche Deutsch" - "I speak German".
"Ich bin Deutsch" - I am German.

Dutch ~ English word refering to things or people from the Netherlands.

"He's Dutch" - "He's from the Netherlands"

Dutchman: Kijk die Duitser daar!(Check that German over there!)
Foreigner: Dude, are you speaking Deutsch?
Dutchman: WTF! I'm Dutch not Deutsch!

German: ...Deutsch?! :D
Foreigner: *confused*
