Title10 German Words Non-Germans Can't Pronounce
Body

From http://www.dw.de/10-german-words-non-germans-cant-pronounce/a-18173048

Kate Müser contributes this article of 10 words that are quite hard for L2 German speakers to pronounce in a way that is understood by most L1 German speakers. The article also provides audio for the 10 words, pronounced by L1 German speaker Stephan Kaiser. It is always helpful to practice the most difficult sounds in a second language, especially if mispronunciation of these sounds interferes with meaning. That said, it's important to remind your students that they don't need to sound "perfectly German" to be understood, particularly since pronunciation of words varies even among L1 speakers.
