Through, tough, and bough are all spelled with "-ough" but pronounced COMPLETELY DIFFERENTLY?! Are you kidding me English?! 🤬 For today's video, I collected some of the most frustrating things about English pronunciation and spelling that make non-native speakers like myself go insane from time to time. Please add YOUR best examples in the comments below!

ABOUT ME: Hallo, Servus, and welcome to my channel! My name is Felicia (Feli), I'm 27, and I'm a German living in the USA! I was born and raised in Munich, Germany but have been living in Cincinnati, Ohio off and on since 2016. I first came here for an exchange semester during my undergrad at LMU Munich, then I returned for an internship, and then I got my master's degree in Cincinnati. I was lucky enough to win the Green Card lottery and have been a permanent resident since 2019! In my videos, I talk about cultural differences between America and Germany, things I like and dislike about living here, and other experiences that I have made during my time in the States. Let me know what YOU would like to hear about in the comments below. DANKE :)
