I think I pronounce it well, don't know it though. The Dutch and Swedish languages are a lot alike, I believe. Their roots are both German, so the 'sound' sounds a lot the same. Swedish Rocks!
But do you have the letter ä in your language? As far as I kno it's only swedish, finnish and some arabic languages that have that letter. the same with å and ö. Originally posted by alexxthefool[..]

Always fun to write down my hometowns name to a person with english as their first language. It's like teaching an american to use the 'ng' and 'gn' - sound we have in swedish.
(Like in the name Magnus)

'Officially' we don't have that letter, I think, but we know how to pronounce it: here it sounds a lot like 'ee'.
It's indeed funny to hear how English/American people pronounce our German-based languages. On the other hand I think it sounds cool.
Jeremy, try to pronounce Alex' hometown: can you?
I can't even tell how to pronounce ä cause it has it's own sound. But it's a little like an e.
