[Facts] I am confused (m)
in reply to a message by Ylva
To me the "ch" in Mädchen and the "ch" in Charles are two very different sounds.
Otherwise, I agree -- the "ch" in Mädchen is the typical German "ch" (like in nicht).I think this thread calls for our resident Germans, Satu and Andy :).~ Ivayla,
