ö,ä,ü (a question for native english people)
In my language we have the letters ö,ä,and ü
I know they dont exist in english . SO I wonderd if they are visible for "english" Pcs. What do you see? |

How interesting. Of course they can see it, a lot of people already asked me how I do those umlauts ä ö ü or ß ..they are just fixed on our keyboard. :D
Hard to explain is the pronouncing of them... |
I know that the b thing is pronounced as "ss". Well thats how you pronounce it in german.

I can explain their pronunciation. However, I might not get it right. I've only studied Deutsch a year and a bit, so forgive my incorrectness.
O with an umlaut is pronounced 'er' and 'h' at the same time. U with an umlaut is pronounced 'ur' with a bit of 'oo' at the same time. I've never actually encountered A umlaut. |
We see them, but they're not on our keyboards. We have to get them from Character Map, thusly: ä ö ü...

:
Just pronounce the Ä as your usual A (it's the same pronunciation) We pronounce the Ü as "ue", and the Ö as "oe", we used to write "Hoecker" and not "Höcker" some years ago (as an example) |
This is what I found in a english dictionary It's how you pronounce them:
ã as in Fate ä as in Far å as in Fall a as in Fat ee as in Me è as in Her e as in met ë as in air ê as in The î as in Pine i as in Pin õ as in note ö as in move o as in not oi as in boy ou as in pound û as in tube ü as in bull u as in tub |
Hey, I found this on the internet on the other day while trying to figger out how my French Program works.

We've got the letters å ä and ö. And in Finnish they're pronounced like this..
å as in all ä as in bat (not like in far.. that's an aa) ö as in pleasure (not like in move.. that's uu) |
oh yeah,I love doing that, passes the time.
