It comes to my mind that most other languages don't pronounce the letter Z this way, only we Germans do ... the other (like French and English) simply say S. For example zebra. How do you pronounce it? The word is the same in all three languages, I guess ... We say t-s-ebra. --- Am 17.03.2023 um 20:36 schrieb René Jansen: > I’ve heard Germans say ‘six’; in Dutch we say ‘kicks’ like the Brits. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to lists...@listserv.ua.edu with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to lists...@listserv.ua.edu with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN
