German is full of sounds and consonant clusters that might seem completely alien or unattainable to learners. How do you deal with the pronunciation of Knopf, Eichhörnchen, or Streichholz? What ways are there for learners to get to grips with these unfamiliar speech sounds? 

In this episode I'm joined by Anke Sennema (University of Vienna) as we discuss German speech sounds that might be particularly tricky for non-native speakers. There'll be some tips and tricks too.
