That was all that I learned so far.
Wrongness. Ich is pronounced "ish" in northern germany, and the "ch" gets harder the farther south you go. In Bavaria, it is pronounced "ick"

no its not pronounced ick in bavaria you tool, youd look like a tourist, which you do already.


its prounced "echhhh" with no kicking k sound at the end.
I see the limey would clearly know more about german language culture than me. *cough*.. Actually, its pronounced echhhhh in and around Berlin. Dumasche Anglander(in).
