This announcer is really committed to pronouncing "Kimmich" correctly, huh?
>>155554017i promise you he is nothe is probably saying Cum-michkhhhhForeigners generally can not do the german ch
>>155554495She is doing it and it's distracting because it's a sound we don't have in English. Imagine if in a German broadcast they used the American R for one player's name
American broadcast always does it with Spanish names. It's fucking unbearable.
>>155555415lol, better than bongs making zero effort and just saying the names all wrong"martin-ez"
>>155555415You should hear Hispanics with American accents say their names.
>>155554495It's just a j sound, "kimmij" that's all
>>155555573No, lol
>>155555527Zero effort is better. Randomly switching accents to say a single word is cringe as fuck. No foreigner will ever say Palhinha or Vitinha or João correctly, just throw the towel before attempting
neh-oo-erkee-meechesh-loh-ter-bekweertθkhah-bertθ
>>155555809What sound is the theta supposed to represent here
japanese names are incredibly easy but no one gets them right not one name
>>155555809>θThere’s no θ involved irl
>>155555787Even if you can pronounce the names perfectly because you’re bilingual, switching accents will always be cringe (unless this is a comedy skit)
>>155555905aspirated t
How do you pronounce Glasmacher?
>>155556189your country is a fake soulless shithole that shouldnt exist
>>155557127You're just seething>richest country in Europe>free public transit>beautiful city>majority whiteAmericans WISH they could live in Luxembourg.
>>155557127Is this a sports post? Which sport exactly?>>155557315I go there sometimes, on the upper side
>>155561408>I go thereWhat's it like IRL?
>>155554663Martin Tyler said he deliberately pronounces names wrong so as to not be distracting when it sounds too foreign
why are people offended by proper pronounciation lol
>>155561719It's performative. It sounds like she just learned how to say the German "ch" yesterday and she wants to show off how worldly she is.
>>155554663>Imagine if in a German broadcast they used the American R for one player's nameBut that's what they do?Like, we have a guy called "Brown" on our team and they use the English pronunciation for his name.
>>155554663That's literally what they're doing with our US-Muttoid called "Brown".
>>155561866CringeThey should just say it like Braun
>>155562255That isn't his name though.>>155561719Because they're incapable of doing the same.
>>155562224Well tbf there is a difference in that English is the dominant lingual franca of the world
>>155562255But he's not called Braun he's called Brown and has a US-Background.
>>155562306Honestly isn't is the closest you would get to the American pronunciation of Brown with German phonemes?
>>155562343Okay and? Tons of Americans have German surnames, we don't pronounce them like you would in Germany
>>155554017This nigga is actualy 5 ft tall or something ? looks really short in the field
>>155562313I agree - English is factually the lingua franca. How does it relate to the correct pronunciation of names tho?
>>155557315You might trick people who haven't been there, but that's where it ends. All of those bullet points are utterly meaningless considering how completely empty and soulless the people are. now post the 99% of the country filled with commieblocks
>>155562453>commieblocks>LuxembourgYou're baiting
>>155556596Just say it like that, simple as
>>155562404And you want me to go out and execute your people in the streets because they can't speak and pronounce German surnames? I don't get your point. None of them is being paid to provide high quality commentary on international football games.
>>155561719>f1 fags joke that americans will mess up the names of all the drivers >they say them correctly, even though most of the drivers themsleves say "luhklurrrk" >why are they trying so hard?redditors just look for any reason to be performatively anti-american
>>155555537>theirArgentinians speak english like natives but you mean guatemalns or mexicans.
>>155561866>>155562224>>155562255Our subhuman commentators try to say all names of all players as they do in their countries. Its so fucking annoying that i would love to punch their heads off
>>155562503You've never been to Luxembourg. I have.
>>155555642not like you would know, Portugieser
>>155562530Just transliterate the sounds into German. So instead of "Brown" say Braun. My opinion on this matter is heavily colored by the pronunciation of Hispanic names in America though, so take it with a grain of salt I guess.
>>155562572When was Luxembourg communist?
>>155562585He's not called Braun. He's called Brown. I literally don't see what's so hard to understand here. Calling him "Braun" would be incorrect and I'm not paying 18€ a month for them to make intentional mistakes in pronunciation.
>>155562536>mfw Sky Sports pronounces everything normally but then they get to>>thickt
>>155562659Braun is the closest way to pronounce his name using the sounds that German offers. Unless you're going to stop calling France "Frankreich" then just be normal. Don't try to pronounce everything like a native>BUT HIS NAME IS NOT BRAUNYeah it's not however you'll butcher the American pronunciation either.
>>155562776We're not like you, we can actually pronounce foreign words.We're not monolingual retards.
>>155561535Calm, a bit tiresome (sloping neighborhood) and gray (sky is rarely blue like in the picture)
>>155562453>99% of the country filled with commieblocksWat lol
>>155563045>Vy don't you speak more languages, like ve do in GERMANY
>>155563311>overcast weatherKino
>>155555573no>>155555809now say Eichhörnchen 3 times
>>155561783>It's performative.aka>"let us be dumb ignorant burgers. different pronunciations hurt my fat head"
>>155562620when they decided to build ugly ass commieblocks on the periphery and surrounding countryside of that relatively tiny cherrypicked historic area you posted.
>>155555905'th' as in 'thorn' I think.
>>155554663They're doing it in every language.Whenever i watch Portugese football and then some guy called MENDES or FELIX gets the ball they yell out MENDSCH and FELIESCH. Just sounds weird.
>>155563492A normal city in Luxembourg seen from the sky (here: Diekirch) looks like this lol
>>155563492Luxembourg City seen from the sky (I live here)
>>155563478The most performative response imaginable lmao
>>155563800>I live hereDoesn't most of the country?
>>155562549Whoa, take it easy, Adolf.
>>155565222No, just 136k inhabitants in the city (we call it "the city" lol) in a country of 700kThe country is very small but it’s not a city-state
>>155565706I thought it was more desu. How's the free public transit?
>>155565706Have you ever kissed a guy?
>>155565740Very high quality and comfortable desu, but I don’t know one single native Luxembourger who doesn’t use a car daily (Luxembourgers are "the rich ones")
>>155566154N-no, you will be my first one
