Thanks for the video. I'll take this class in the future for sure. Watched your videos for a good while, and I love them. I truly appreciate your time and efforts.
Watching that as a German is somewhat funny 😄 I'm constantly working on my American accent and boy, it's not easy. But at the end of the day, it's just a matter of practice. I wish everyone the best in practicing their accent ✨
Agreed! It's a matter of practice. Consistent practice over a long period of time. You've got to stay consistent. But you'll get there. You have the advantage of easy access. You can watch movies, listen to podcasts, watch videos, and even speak to people. Many opportunities haha. I wish you well too with your American accent practice. You can do it :)
I'm interested in learning how to do a German accent and other ones too, I think they're really cool sounding. And American accents are wild tbh so I salute you for attempting to learn one but they're also pretty interesting. I'm American so ofc I find other accents a lot more interesting to hear and learn but I still think it's fun to learn more about cause there's so many different types and variations. Even where I live here on the eastern side of the US in Virginia there's different variations of accents and there's even more complexities when it comes to Black and other ethnic American accents. Sorry for all the rambling lol. Good luck with learning an American accent, hope it goes well! 🫡✨💕
I reeaaalllyyy need a Scottish one of these. I can not for the life of me figure that one out and you guys have the best tutorials out there, so maybe that will help.
It is indeed brilliant. Yes. You can be specific but my gosh, that's with many accents. I'm from the UK and there are many "British" accents, but we understand that learners learn the "standard" accent like for any other languages. I appreciate the video!
Wow. That was very effective! I've always wondered how to do it. I can do French, Spanish, Aussie accents no problem. But German, not so much. This was very helpful. Thanks!
Lol. You don't have to learn languages, to do accents. For instance, English is my native language. But I also learned to speak French, Portuguese and Spanish. I have friends who can do a super French accent, and one who can do a brilliant Spanish accent (from Spain). They don't know how to speak the languages. But they've HEARD francophones or Spaniards speak English many times through exposure to tourists, customers, movies, the media etc.
alright so if you really want to do a german accent learn how to pronounce ö pronounce english er like german ör. so her becomes hör. turn becomes törn. the a sound in words like "can", "ant", "act" etc. become close to an e. so ant is pronounced like ent, act is like ekt, and can is like ken. (I actually think it's closer to a german ä but it's very similar. learn to open your jaw and make the inside of your mouth bigger when pronouncing the oo or u sound like in tune, use, boom, etc. also, learn to add more glottal stops between words. A glottal stop is the thing you do with your throat to separate the two syllables in uh-oh. So for example an american would say "we are" smoothly, maybe something like "weeyarr". A german on the other hand would pronounce it as two distinct words "we ' are".
I surprisingly could recall all of the differences before you articulated them. I guess I am well on my way to mastery of this accent. I have heard a lot of german people speak, which gives me a bit of an advatage. I think in a future video you should talk about the shifts in vowel pronounciation, as it seems you mostly focused on consonants in this video. Vowel pronunciation is vital if you want to really sell the accent in a convincing manner.
@lorenzovonmatta8278 I live in Washington state, but that has nothing to do with my exposure to the German language. I was just autistophrenically fixated on the events of ww2 as a teen, especially those concerning the Shoah.
ita cool to watch as a german and every time you said and this sound turns into this I always said sound or word in German to see what it would turn into lol
The percentage of U.S. citizens who are of German descent is far greater than almost all of Europe combined, with roughly 50 million of the country's 330 million total population. For example, Pennsylvania was 30% German by the mid-18th century.
I hope you’re doing some modeling to subsidize your income. You must know you need to capitalize on your gifts and one of yours is your very good looks.

Everything about this is BRILLIANT. Thank you.
You've clearly never heard a German accent before. He sounds like someone from the north of Ireland doing a bad Dutch accent.
Everything about it is also wrong. It’s a somewhat passable Austrian accent, for someone who is hard of hearing, but not German.

@@lorenzovonmatta8278 No. No it isn't.

Step one: learn German
Step two: learn English

That's really cool! Is there any reason you've heard a lot of German? Which state do you live in? :)

I can speak a good bit of German and just because of learning the language, I can do the accent.
@makeairsoftgreatagain makes sense
it's funny because in my experience, germans are just as likely to switch w and v the other way (so vegetable becomes whegetable).
Can you do Cajun?
ita cool to watch as a german and every time you said and this sound turns into this I always said sound or word in German to see what it would turn into lol
İ really wanna learn it bruhh

Deafening of voiced sounds, as in Russian. Also, mine in German would be read as mineeee with the E sound at the end of the word
ok don't know where you got the idea for turning s into sh but that is not something I have ever heard in a german acccent before.
Do indian please
