Wasn't that what this whole thread was about? Did I already tell you I love this thread?!

Shanazel, didn't you know "angstschreeuw" means "scream out of fear"? Will I even try to describe the pronunciation? Ok, "angst" is like the English word "angst", but the "a" sounds more like the "a" in "far", got it so far? Then, "ch" is a hard g-sound, "r" is more of a rolling r, "ee" sounds like when you say the letter "a" and "uw" is a w sound similar to the w in "ew", does that make sense?
Don't you think it's lovely how we Dutch write words together? But aren't the people from Greenland even doing that with whole sentences? Isn't that even worse?

Adiemus, do you think it's too late to start learning French now?
