Finally some quality tutorial without the typical crappy "it sound like in English XX" to try to describe sounds that don't exist in English! Most people have good intentions, but little idea. Great stuff, please do more like this!

I want to start studying German sometime soon, and I've been trying to find helpful phonetic guides for the German language so I'll already have an idea of what German is supposed to sound like when I start my studies. This video was the most helpful one I've watched so far, the phonetic examples and descriptions are great! Thank you for this.

Since I snore, I find the German R easier to pronounce

Finally all these years studying phonetics and phonology at uni came in handy!!! Great video!! Thanks a lot!!! Have you made any video dealing with linguistic variation in German yet? It would be awesome!!

This is awesome! I've been waiting for these videos for so long!

That was super helpful, thanks! I've been speaking German for over 6 years now and I still had a few things to learn about pronunciation. ;)
-
Well done - excellent explanation - I've been studying German for years and some of this was new to me.
-
Currently learning German, so this helped a lot! You mentioned English not using glottal stops so much?! My native dialect is part of the Cockney (London) continuum, where we heavily use it, especially since we mostly drop the /h/ and /t/ sounds!
-
as someone who studied English pronunciation through the IPA, this is super helpful! I can easily review the easy consonants and focus more on the newer, more difficult ones. The IPA's helped me so much with breaking down the sounds and get the correct pronunciation in English, and I hope it'll be the same with German!
-
It's very 'klug' the way you explained the sounds of German and compared the 'same same but different' sounds as well. Danke!
