except the German "r" is pronounced in the back of your mouth, a little bit like a combination between a "w" and an "r" sound. The best waay to understand the sound is by hearing a native speaker say it. BTW DO NOT trust Rammstein's pronunciation of "r"s, the trilly thing is only used in music lyrics, where the normal German "r" is just a major turn-off
Reply:Same way you pronounce it. You don't say it any differently in another language because it's your name. Names don't change when they traverse into different languages. =)
