*How to pronounce "Dasistwirklichseinnachname"

[BigKicks]

I was thinking it was "seine nachname" for some reason ???????

But I refuse to say the ch in wirklich as a hard K sound. Just as I refuse to pronounce "Ich" as "Eek".

Also "sein" is pronounced like the the second syllable of "deSIGN" with the S sounding almost like a Z and a hard I before the soft N.

At the end of the day, I came in with 0 prep, chugged 4 beers, and made words come out of my mouth. If that's not the quality content you come to the site for then I don't even know why anyone bothers.

You do you my man. I just felt that this needed to be said so that there would be no more issues. And you're right, sein is pronounced "zine" in German as a stand alone word. The words surrounding it, however, sort of cannibalize it, and in some accents it turns it into my aforementioned pronounciation. "Sen" and "zine" in this instance would both be correct.
