There are lots of other names for Carneval in the several German regions: Fastnacht, Fasching, Karneval, Fasnet, and more. People also shout many different salutations. "Helau" and "Alaaf" are only the most famous ones. In southern parts you shout "Narri Narro" for example.

People in Mannheim always shout "Ahoi" during Carneval time. Greetz and "Mann'em – Ahoi" Diego

I'm a famous movie star and I wanted to know stuff about the german carnivals and this website is rubbish i've never seen such rubbish in my life. I'd rather sit on a loo for like forever than look at this website. And i know this new person who will become a huge star and he would sue the company of this site if he saw it. Get your act together mate!!!!
Bye Bye
