๐ฅจ German Accent Test: How Good Is Your German Accent?
German speakers of English often use a 'z' for 'th', firm consonants and clear, precise vowels. The delivery sounds orderly and evenly stressed.

โZe train is four minutes late. Zis is completely unacceptable.โ

How to do a German accent
- Turn 'th' into 'z' or 's': 'ze train', 'zis'.
- Make W sound like V: 'vee vill', 'vater' for water.
- Harden final consonants: 'goot' for good, 'hant' for hand.
- Keep vowels pure and short, and give each word a crisp, firm start.
The most common mistake
Shouting it; a convincing accent is calm and precise rather than aggressive.
