For Arabic speakers, Try to say " iهch " , like " اهش " but with very subtle ش . Thanks for the video !

Best explanation on pronunciation for this I have seen. Even when I put videos on 0.75 playback speed and heard the pronunciation slow, I couldn't get it until you explained it. Thanks so much!

I was actually surprised when I start saying it right! Danke! I can finally start trying to pronounce "Milch" without going "-chgHL" at the end
