I mean, you chose to pronounce "ch" as a "k", not us...

It's not our fault the english language can't deal with ch-sounds. And it's you who chose to pronounce it as k and not (t)sh or something.

It took me like a full minute to remember English-speakers can't say the phonetic [x] or [χ] sounds.

Angelsachsen sprechen es vermutlich "Wir sucken dick" aus, weil die korrekte Aussprache einer anderen Sprache im Internet nachzusehen ist zu schwer.

Die ch=k Aussprache hat sich halt irgendwie auch einfach generell so im englischsprachigen Raum etabliert. Das ist ein Laut, den sie in der eigenen Sprache nicht haben. In der Regel können sie auch ein Fauchen nachmachen, aber keine Ahnung, ob das dann mitten in einem Wort zu schwer ist, oder warum sie das konsequent anders aussprechen...

As a French I find it more funny to see all the US places that sell bites.

Welcome to YUROP
The Ultimate Eurozone of Culture, Chaos, and Continental Excellence

A glorious gathering place to celebrate (and lovingly roast) the lands, peoples, quirks, and contradictions of Her Most Magnificent Europa. From the fjords to the Med, the steppes to the Atlantic spray, this is a shrine to everything that makes Europe gloriously weird, wonderfully diverse, and occasionally passive-aggressive in 24 languages.

Here we toast:
🇪🇺 The progressive Union of Peace (and paperwork)
🧀 The freest of health care
🍷 The finest of foods
🏳️‍🌈 The liberalest of liberties
🌍 The proud non-members and honorary cousins 💶 And the eternal dance of unity, confusion, and cultural banter.

Post memes, news, satire, linguistic wars, train maps, cursed food photos, Eurovision fever, propaganda and whatever makes you scream “only in YUROP.”

Leave your stereotypes at the border control and enjoy the ride.
