why can anglos say the word "strengths" but complain about our consonant clusters

>>214467657
Your consonant clusters look more intimidating than they actually are due to all the unfamiliar digraphs.

just because its easy it doesnt mean i have to do it

Some time ago, I almost missed my flight from Spain to London Stansted because when it was called the guy kept pronouncing it like "Estene-Estedde".

I don't know and I don't care.

P.S. I do care. I lied about not caring. I always care.

They lost their connection to Spain so now they must suffer. All Latinx is like a child with daddy issues. They have to unite with Spain (Papa) again. It will only get worst for them until then.

There was a native Mexican guy who used to work at the car repair place I used to go to would pronounce those sounds as shp, sht, or shkv. Not sure if it's because it was a German car repair place or if it was because Natives also pronounce like that. He was some sort of Mayan.

We don't, doe

We know how to pronounce English names. Normies sometimes say "London" instead of "Landen".

But you're right - S plus consonant is generally "sch plus consonant" in German. We do write it out, like "schlafen", "schmecken", "schnarchen" - s+p and s+t are the only exceptions. And what's more, they are pronounced "schp" and "scht" at the beginning of a syllable, but "sp" and "st" at the end of a syllable. Like our "Rest" means exactly the same and is pronounce the same was as the English word "rest".

Don't some German dialects pronounce it as sch(consonant) regardless of position in the word?

>>214474065
German: "Staat"
English: "state"
French: "état"
English: "squirrel"
French: "écureuil"
You do put an é in front of sp, st, sq and then swallow the s.

>>214474378
Yes, I think so. And Hamburgers also pronounce sp and st as sp and st at the beginning of a syllable. There is some variation. Standard German that you hear on radio and TV is how I described it, though.

>>214474419
That's not what OP said
He said we, LatiniXos, cannot say squirrel and therefore say esquirrel

>>214468045
skill issue, is just a vowel
anglos speeaking spanish will always make every vowel a diphthong, yet nobody claims not undertanding
