Yeah I found this meme bit misleading, but I also got a good chuckle out of it since this is very relevant to me.I'm not a native English speaker but since I learned English earlier in life than German I still get confused about this in a real/fast conversations.
We have a similar one where the pronounciations are flipped in Norwegian.Cook(as in chef) = kokkCock = kukk
We've got !chinese@lemmy.world but unfortunately I'm not patient enough to learn it. Maybe one day I'll try to learn a few sentences to impress my chinese colleagues!
It was the british that changed german, not the other way around.
