LOL

"Wir" is German for "We."

Interestingly enough, the German "W" is pronounced like an English "V" (while the Latin "V" is pronounced like an English "W")

BTW - I have the video for this. I can pm you a link if you want it. It's a rather somber track - the video is from the ambient mix. Kind of depressing, really.

Here's a LINK to the lyrics (in German)

gg ...something between "sh" and "ck" you need to pronounce the "ck" smooth/soft ...to get something like "ch" ...actually you need to hear how german speaking people pronounce it, to say it correctly ...

bree you already had 100 tries and indy too...


Posted by Vlad on Sep-27-2004 19:23:

Michi, what comes first the 'sh' sound or the 'ck' sound?

Cause the way Im understanding it... its pronounced... Mish-ki.

i doubt that ...*remembering the flight from NYC to Miami*


Posted by BloodfIower on Sep-27-2004 19:30:

its impossible to explain/discribe how u have to speak CH with written words or letters...

its also in the tschechien and russian language and it isnt to hard to speak

its like the sound when u write ZZZZZZZZZzzzzzzzzzzZZZZZZZZzzzzzzz as a person sleeps and breathes heavily, just with lesser S in it...

not fair! i was nervous..i was in mid-air...i was tired...

hehehehe. the fact is, you wouldn't say it enough times so that i could copy you. so now i'll get my dad and bloodflower to help me perfect it.

no one pronounces my name right either.

Well the way he explained it thats how I guessed it...

Anyway, I bet if I heard him say it, I would be able to say it, especially since Robby says its kinda similar to how some stuff is pronounced in russian. If I could hear it, I would probably be able to teach people how to say it.
