It's ˈaJnˌʃtʏɐtsəndə ˈnɔJˌbaʊtən. You're welcome, OP.

>>64066022
write: einstürzende neubauten
read: ainstuerzende noibauten
>>
>>64066116
This might be the case, but ultimately its unhelpful to tell someone to sound out a foreign language.

For instance, the "stür" in Einstürzende would be pronounced "shtair" and not "stur".

Honestly its kind of more difficult for English speakers because letter combinations can have multiple pronunciations and you can only tell from context. "Tough" and "Dough", for example.

no it wouldn't it is pronounced:
ine-shture-tsendeh noy-bow-ten


note: think of (n)ine as in the number and bow as in on a ship, and not the weapon
>>
>>64068627
>shture
More like shtuar

Should be "Einstürzenden Neubauten" here.
This is basic grammar senpai, come on apply yourself.
>>
>>64068768
wouldn't make any sense in english. nobody knows the difference between einstürzende and einstürzenden.

but to be honest, you're completely right: it's one of the few bands where the name should be altered in a sentence.

you also would never say "die "die toten hosen" sind eine behinderte band und ich gebe einen fick auf campino und ihre beschissene möchtegernfürimmerpunkattitüde"
>>
>>64068849
>>64068849
>wouldn't make any sense in english
It's still necessary.

>you also would never say die "die toten hosen"
Yes, that is because the article and declination are already in the name.
>>
>>64068627
No, the stür" in Einstürzende would be pronounced "shtair" and not "stur", that is the point of the umlaut.
