most germans have this weird thing where they pronounce the name of the show like "the big bang theory", with just that one syllable stressed, it's super weird.


also, in german academia, it's super common that people pronounce "review" like "reff-you"


i have no idea what that is about either

the german word "theory" is pronounced tay-ohr-ey, with the stress on the first syllable. also in german the letter v makes the english f sound. i dunno why but the german accent is notoriously strong and hard to erase when they speak english, i've known germans who've spoken english for fifty years or more and have an excellent technical grasp of the language, but they still sound basically like a bond villain

Nah that's everybody. Speech (as a physical action) gets super hard wired into your brain when you're young and if you learn a language later in life you never really unlearn all the physical-speech stuff so you end up with an accent forever

Talk to anyone who emigrated as even a teenager but is now old, they'll still have a solid accent after living the vast majority of their life speaking another language

every time they interview toto wolff i know i know i know the guy speaks great english and he picks his words carefully and is able to make subtle points and pick the tone of his words carefully and if i read a transcript of it after the fact that would be obvious but when i listen to it he just sounds like a terminator

that's not really true, it's technically /v/ just like in english and differentiated from /f/, but i guess the actual pronunciation may commonly be less salient than in english

in the case of "review" though, if "rev" is treated as the first syllable and if it's stressed (as usual in germanic words, even if "review" isn't one), it makes sense that it'd be pronounced [ref] as - to my knowledge - in german, all ordinarily voiced plosives and fricatives become unvoiced at the end of a syllable

also i imagine many germans, like dutchmen, are lazy with their vocalisation, which results in voiced and unvoiced consonants being swapped

No, that's wrong. It's /te.oˈʁiː/ (roughly: Tay-oh-REE), with the last syllable stressed. https://commons.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?title=File%3ADe-at-Theorie.ogg

There are two separate ways v is pronounced in German; like the English f (mostly in Germanic-sourced words like Vater, Vogel, Vier), and like the English v (mostly in Latin-sourced words like Vase, Virus, Gravitation).
