what a useless and funny OT thread... I guess the most difficult thing for anyone not German, Dutch, Scandinavian or Israeli is the CH in LICHT, it's not a SH as english speakers use it, it's more soft and produced by an entirely different use of your tongue and mouth, I know people who haven't learned it many years of trying.

My friend who lived in Austria says that Irrlicht is a flash of light, fast blink or something. He pronounces it like
EEAR (but you can't hear R) - LEESHT (where SH is pretty soft, i can't explain it, it's like CH in Ich)

Ah Oui ? Merci. At least we can pronounce Irrlicht properly. Btw, how old are you?

I was not really serious, man! For example, I don't sound gay speaking french

I'm 21, btw, do you speak french? Why did you said "thanks"?
