I don't speak any German but I've found that American German accents don't really get the hard consonants hard enough, or something. I know English's roots are Germanic but like I've said before, English is a West Germanic + North Germanic + Norman French clusterf*** of a language.

Accents are tough. Take a monolingual English speaker like myself (I have some written knowledge in Spanish but am unable to speak the language) and put him in Quebec City, and see how fast the locals respond to him in English no matter how hard he studied and practiced a single French phrase in an attempt to respect the local language. Not that this happened or anything.



I fixed that for you.
Yeah when I went to Germany I was told my Rs were too hard as an American. They often would switch to English even if I started with German
