Barnikel again
Posted by Nick B. on 7/11/2012 2:15:29 AM
Only if you pronounce it correctly. Note the spelling is neither "fahck" nor "fook". Germans tend to say the former, Cumbrians(?) and Irishmen(?) tend to say the latter.

(The English "short u" sound doesn't exist in German, so it's notoriously difficult for them to say things like "bubble", "public", etc., with the right vowel sound.)

Not that I want to make light of a serious situation, of course. Reuter is one of your favourites, right?
