Hi everyone,

Just recently posted a video of me speaking German. Probably the odd mistake so correct if you feel like it,
however I'm looking for any advice on how to improve my German pronunciation/accent.

All replies welcome.

Thanks :)

Your pronunciation is excellent. The only issues that I noticed was the pronunciation of bischen [ˈbɪsçən] and sechzehn [ˈzɛçtse:n].

Otherwise I only have some minor grammar nitpicks:

0:10: was ich gemacht habe, um Deutsch zu lernen...
0:17: ich sollte euch [vielleicht] etwas zu meiner Kindheit erklären...
2:18: was ich jeden Tag gemacht habe, um Deutsch zu lernen, daran kann ich mich nicht so gut erinnern...

(The words in blue are missing.)

P.S. I also found the faint background music a bit distracting.

Thanks for the corrections.

Yeah I find the pronunciation of sechzehn really difficult for some reason. Guess it's something to work
on.

I actually thought it sounded a little boring without some sort of background music. Oh well, I know for next
time.
