I only managed it correctly a few moments ago...
Through my regular habit of Floccinaucinihilipilification I have found this thread to be worthless...:D |

Its not so much that I can't pronounce them, but the way I say Tiger, Spider, Wire, Fire and so on is apparently 'very funny'. (Apparently I over-emphasise the 'i')
Anyway, I'm an engineer, so I have much much more difficulty with spelling & grammar. |

Minimum. I have to get around it by saying something like "opposite of maximum" (which i can say).

AH'NOLD!
When jesse 'The Body' ventura became for governor of Minnesota they got t-shirts printed with "My Governor is harder than your Governor" as a way of having a go at them old Californians. I love that.
He also wrote a biography called "Aint go time to bleed", a genius. |

I have a hard time with words like Arzt, jetzt... up until a few days back I didn't know that the last 't' should be pronounced, and now I put too much stress on it, sounds funny! |
