Did Clarkson confuse a “marmoset” for a marmot? Because the latter is an actual member of Rodentia, particularly Sciuridae, and thus the squirrel family while _marmoset_ is Primatata.
The best part of this joke is that it works in german, too. Because no Brit, no matter how good their german is, can say "Eichhörnchen". Which is the german word for squirrel.
Not always true! My mother emigrated from Germany to the United States in the late 1950s and she is able to pronounce the word "squirrel" as well as any of her natural born children!
As a German I can pronounce squirrel just fine. My British husband was actually quite disappointed when he found out. However he can't pronounce Massachusetts properly.
Yea, it's because your fucking Rs are shit Diese Rs sind nicht mal ordentlich Rs, sondern eher Ws. Ein R kommt aus den Kehle und wird ni mit der Zunge gemacht
This is my German friend to a Tee 😂
Germans can't say sqirrel, but Brits can't say Eichhörnchen 🤣🤣🤣
Skuawearl skuireal?

I kind of want to try this with my German lecturer… lol
Do let us know how it goes 😂
not like these guys could ever say "eichhörnchen" correctly
The word for squirrel in every language is unpronouncable to everyone else not from that language, don't believe me? Try saying écuirel
Now lets see if we can find an english person that can say "Oachkatzlschwoaf" 🤣
Scottish people can’t say “purple burglar alarm”
Limmy 😭
Jeremy is an evil jerk !
Christoph Waltz exists.
Palyanytsya
The hardest English word for Germans to pronounce is “already”
I'm german and I can say squirrel very well, but now it's your turn my british friends I wanna hear your Eichhörnchen !!
I can offend a lot of the staff at my work by asking them to say squirrel 🤣
My partner is German and has no issues saying Squirrel.

Ironically english speaking people can't pronounce the germand word for Squirrel, which is "Eichhörnchen"

British cant say it either
Squirrel in German: Eichhörnchen👌
And Britains can't speak German while they are expacting a perfect English by the germans....🙄
Das einhörnchen. there.
Eichhörnchen
What a clown to man he is
As a German I can pronounce squirrel just fine. My British husband was actually quite disappointed when he found out. However he can't pronounce Massachusetts properly.
That's absolutely not true. I can and a lot of others can as well say squirrel
This really makes me laugh

To be fair Americans can’t say “squirrel” properly either.
Ah, yes. The American sqwhirl...
@@DomWeasel They also don’t have mirrors in America either. Only meeeyers.
WTF!!?? I'm German and I can say Squiwirirl perfectly!
me as German ohhhhh no anyway
I speak both. German is sooooo easy because there are rules and almost no exceptions. In English there are exceptions and almost no rules.
This from the man that can’t say Nissan, Prius, or aluminum.
It’s aluminium*
And after many years ppl around the world understood that Clarkson was actually racist lol
I mean... as an American, we don’t even say it that well. We say skwerl.
You can't say aluminium correctly either
AdamTheMan1993 True, and you can’t say aluminum haha
I guess this is why they casted Christoph Waltz as a German in Inglorious Basterds because he needed to say squirrel 😂
Yea, it's because your fucking Rs are shit Diese Rs sind nicht mal ordentlich Rs, sondern eher Ws. Ein R kommt aus den Kehle und wird ni mit der Zunge gemacht
And Brits can't say Eichhörnchen.
We would if we were speaking German but unfortunately we don't because we stopped Hitler from making that happen
@@AdamTheMan1993 But we didn't stop the Normans from taking over, which is how the English language came to exist.
Then try to say Eichhörnchen :D
We would if we were speaking German but unfortunately we don't because we stopped Hitler from making that happen
And James May would say: Deutschland, Deutschland, Aber ja natürlich Hans ist nass, er steht unter dem Wasserfall.
christoph waltz didnt have a problem saying it in inglorious basterds.
He's Austrian😂
@@MISSINGSITTERS no fucking shit? i couldve sworn he was german. fair enough.
it is one thing germans can't say squirrel, but a car media person that can't pronounce Ferrari, but say fuoaui... is more ridicolous.
