Most difficult letter/word/phrase to pronounce!

For example, the letter 'Ř' (a ‘raised alveolar non-sonorant trill’!) from Czech is reputed to be one of the most difficult letters to pronounce in the world – except (of course) if you are Czech! Can you come up with something just as difficult to pronounce or even more so – either in your own language or in the one you are learning? If so, send us a short video illustrating this challenging piece of oral dexterity and why it is challenging! We will select a winner of Europe's most difficult utterances to then be featured on the EDL website.

De schoonheid van talen

Elke taal heeft interesante uitdrukkingen die de unieke charme en elegantie ervan uitdrukken. Vaak horen daar boeiende of grappige anekdotes bij die uitleggen hoe ze gebruikt worden. Ken jij mooie uitdrukkingen - in je moedertaal of een taal die je aan het leren bent - en een beetje uitleg geven over de betekenis?
