    Thank you I’m learning German and I want to speak it with a German accent after I get better at it.
  • @MM-jm6do
    There actually is a good rule of thumb for “th”! We actually have 2 different sounds represented by the “th” in English. If it is unvoiced, like in “bath”, use an s/f. If it is voiced, like in “bathe”, use a z/d.

    I once told a German in the US, “Vielen dank.” He was so hurt. He asked me how I knew he was German, was his accent so bad? The more I said his accent was almost perfect, the more hurt he became. So I told him a story about how nice a German neighbor lady was, and he thought I was making it up. She used to paint our house for free because she said she was bored. He looked thoroughly offended. He said, “German people aren’t nice.”

    I wanna get rid of my german accent as a german XD. This video is counterproductive ragarding to that aim XD
  • @nigelogilvie9450
    Good explanation. I find that some Germans inexperienced in speaking English are uncertain about V and W and sometimes reverse them -- "votching tellywision". Final L is often very liquid - "comparablll". Words ending ing sometimes come close to sounding like -ink. And they have trouble with the progressive tenses - "I am living here now twelve years", or "tomorrow I go to Berlin for a few days". Sometimes they use "what" as the relative pronoun, "This is the book what I told you about". And the strict word order in German, especially adverbs, can be mistakenly carried over into English. NB none of this is to mock Germans, who make a better job of English than I make of their language.

    Echt witzig als Deutsche! 😂😆 Wenn wir „Darth Vader“ mit amerikanischem Akzent aussprechen wollen - also so, wie es eigentlich richtig ist - dann ist es uns peinlich, weil es für deutsche Ohren nachgeäfft klingt. Noch etwas, das wir anders machen ist das L. Wir sprechen es mit einem ä vorne äll Greetings from Dschörmenny! 😜
