Significado
To have an allergic response to something.
Contexto cultural
Germans are very health-conscious. It is standard to inform hosts of allergies before a dinner party. It's not seen as 'picky' but as 'responsible'. In Vienna, 'allergisch reagieren' is often used with a touch of 'Grant' (grumpiness) to describe a general dislike of modern changes. Precision is key. In Swiss German contexts, reacting allergically to 'Unpünktlichkeit' is a very common and serious sentiment. The phrase has become a 'buzzword' for identifying cultural misalignments in international teams.
The 'Auf' Rule
Always remember: Reagieren + Auf. Think of 'reacting UPON' something to remember the preposition.
Don't overdo it
If you say you 'react allergically' to everything, people will think you are very difficult or dramatic.
