Can Austrians understand German jokes?

Austrians can understand German jokes.

German in Austria is identical with German in grammar, and its pronunciation is basically the same as that in southern Germany, except for a few words. But it does not affect mutual communication.

German belongs to the Indo-European Germanic language family and is the official language of Germany, Austria, Switzerland and other countries. The formation of German and standard language can be traced back to Martin Luther's Bible translation. German is the mother tongue of more than 1. 1 100 million people. German is divided into highland German and lowland German. Highland German is homophonic, adopting some pronunciation rules of Low German, which sounds more like English and Dutch. The common written language is based on Highland German. There are great differences between dialects.
