American pronouncing difficult German words

[@haehnchendieter153]

7:46 you saying "donaudampf" sounds like my vietnamese friend's mom saying "donald trump"

[@linastein2625]

You did a good job, wooww!!! 👏🏼👏🏼❤️ „You know what I have to do Germany? Because your words are so long?! I have to turn my phone sideways!“ 😂

[@KendraAshanti]

Thank you!! 😂

[@bushrahassan6285]

Who come from germany and look her Videos Me:) just me or

[@saltydagger6635]

Your pronunciation is already really good and clear, the R‘s too 🙂

[@KendraAshanti]

Thank you!

I love when you speak German at the beginning of your videos. I'd like to hear you speak more German in your videos. (I'm studying Italian and Dutch.)

[@monikadeinbeck4760]

let me say first that your pronounciation is very good. Your contest speaking difficult german words remembered me of this little precious. It's the prologue to Christian Morgenstern's "Galgenlieder" (gallow songs). The author tries his best to drive the difficulties of the german language to the extreme. The language is a bit outdated, but still amusing. Have fun. www.oppisworld.de/morgen/galgen.html

just spent most of my afternoon watching your videos and had a lot of fun with them :D/

[@KendraAshanti]

Thanks so much!

[@willshedo]

These words are all not used in common daily language. They are actually selected and tackled together to be long and stress German-learners out ;-)

[@KendraAshanti]

Mission accomplished 😂

[@ZalinaW]

I am look forward to it! I admire the fact you are attempting to even pronounce these German words. When I speak in German to a German, I avoid saying the most difficult pronounced words.

[@KendraAshanti]

It was challenge fo sure 😅

[@ZalinaW]

I agree the "r"s, the umlaut a, e, and especially the o are the hardest to pronounce. There is a lot of using the back of the throat, and shaping your mouth in a circular way to properly pronounce the words. It's very awkward for me from California. 😨 Great video! You are brave to pronounce the words.

And now a word that's actually used: Sonnenblumenblütenblättertee.

[@besi-shop7801]

Danube are River.

[@thomasbuhler2250]

You do well. These words are not regular ones. It gets easier when you cut them in the single words they are composed of. Let us Germans say these words three times fast, most will trip over as well. Even Germans avoid many consonants in a row, but they exist.

[@JayStephan]

Wow...hmmm, I can't even attempt to pronounce those words. You did great!!!

[@KendraAshanti]

Thanks Jay 😅😅

[@MrCarponizer]

Donalddampf ?? och man das is so Süss :)

[@SethinBerlin]

For whatever reason I have a problem with the word Zusammen. I have no idea why

[@KendraAshanti]

It's the z immediately followed by the s lol

[@SethinBerlin]

@@KendraAshanti My mouth just doesn't want to make that sound!

[@arnodobler1096]

[@MrCarponizer]

7 jahre und ich schreib english :)

[@wora1111]

Sehr gutes Sprachverständnis. Sprichst Du tagsüber viel Deutsch?

[@robertzander9723]

Serwas Lieblingsnachbarin, Kraftfahrzeug (KFZ) means any kind of car/ motorcycle. Gesellschaften means the whole bunch of insurances in total not a specific one. Donau/ Danube is the name of the river the ship's of the companies are driving on. Correctly written is the word with three letters of f in the middle. Nice video, well done 👍 You are the Thursday evening video bonbon very entertaining.🍭🍬🤭😋

[@KendraAshanti]

Danke Lieblingsnachbar 😅

[@ilcritico2685]

You drink too much coffee. It's not healthy. Now translate it in German.

[@guinessdraught2758]

[@richardb.9391]

I understand Donald Trump and not Donaudampf. Funny

[@beccicrazy]

your pronounciation was great. but really, some of the words were just... ridiculous... almost no one in Germany would just causually drop them in some conversation. Many of them were quite difficult legal terms, where even native Germans struggle to pronounce AND understand them. And in Germany there is almost anything possible if it comes to the lengths of a word. You can kind of glue different nouns together to get a whole new word where other languages would use an entire sentence to describe the same.
