A struggle that i cant seem to get rid of and have heard a lot of other native german speakers do is the w/v thing. Like for example pronouncing vegan as „wegan“. Usually never when its an isolated word but mostly during conversation…

same with the city London!! German speakers would say “LONH-DN” instead of “LuhN-Den”

Phonetics and phonology 😊🫶🏼✨✨
Nitpicky nerd info-dump note: The "hab-m" is a point in case. The "schenk-n", I'm afraid, isn't - the more common "schenk-ng", however is (which is how I pronounce "schenken" in everyday speech): here, the /n/ is realised as a (syllabic) velar allophone of /n/ due to homorganic pronunciation with velar [k]. P. S.: The unstressed syllabic /n/ (as in German "schenk-n") is not foreign at least to British English: button, London, mountain, listen, hidden, reason, et al.

Now I have to think about us saying “habM” instead of haben and it bothers me so much. How have I not noticed that?!

Ok this is fascinating. I just thought about how I would pronounce chicken and if u were to go and order chicken McNuggets at McDonalds in Austria i would totally drop the e but if I were to say chicken in an English sentence I wouldn’t. Never thought about it before!

happens to Germans speaking Dutch. same verb infinitive structure but pronunciation is different, so you can always spot the German

Golden Face with Emeralds :
I am bilingual and have never given this a thought. I do pronounce the English words correctly (but I had to check first by saying them out loud in a sentence haha), but if someone said „opm“ instead of „open“ it wouldn’t sound way off to me.

Assimilation does take place in any language.not only in German. Might be different kinds of assimilation, but its a principle of any spoken language.
