How do you say Metalheads in your country?

[Lucretia]

Who speaks Klingon around here?

Metaalhoofden, but I'll forgive you.

okay, Metaalhoofden then
the Klingon version I found in another forum...

 

[Frau Diebels]

Also bei uns ist dat ganz klar en Metaller...manche sagen auch Metlar...was ich total bescheuert finde...es heißt Metaller!!

In my language it is a Metaller! Others like to say Metlar but I think it's not correct! It is definitively a Metaller!

I hate my knowledge in English...aaaaah

@ Zombi

[Huldran]

In Russian, you write it with a double L ...however, this doesn't affect the pronunciation at all.

Oh, and by the way, Russians use the word "Metaller" (like in English) as well.

I get called emo quite a lot by morons at school.

The majority of british youth has no clue what a MetalHead is, generally they'll call them goths, grungers, greebos or emos.
