    Default The Germans cannot pronounce the word 'squirrel'

    Obviously it applies to those whose mother tongue is German, not some American ''Germans''. And not all but many ...

    Discuss. Or tell me what is your reaction to this funny revelation.

    I doubt even Arnie could do the word justice lol
    If you see a post in red font made by my username, that means that it is Pompey's post, not mine.

    That's correct. We truncate the 'rrel, so that it is pronounced like squirl (rhymes with 'whirl').
