I studied German for 8 years and the German accent in the north is different than in the south....just like in the US. So there are bound to be slight variations in the pronunciations. For instance, I love you = Ich liebe dich. Can be pronounced ick lee-ba dic(k) but the proper German pronunciation is more like
isch lee-ba disch, the second be less harsh to ear. I personally would also say it should be pronounced like bee-vair. |
