-ers?

many languages have difficult sounds for english speakers, such as hindi with retroflex consonants, arabic with the letter ع, tamil with the letter ழ், etc

what do you think would be the hardest sound in english for foreigners?

clog-wearing windmill tulip enthusiast here (dutch)

i learned english as a natural second language whilst growing up and the only trouble i remember was trying not to trill my r's

was pretty young though so it's probably also related to age.

I believe the sound we make for the a in ball or hall is something that Americans do but a ton of other accents and languages just don't have. I think that's the one anyway.

@briarr

you mean the "ah" sound?

lots of languages have that, in fact it's how A in latin was pronounced

Words with quite a few "r"s and "l"s. I'm a native speaker and I still have trouble with words like "rural".

I know people of British accents have trouble saying this a lot.

Same with Valkyrie - the "W" sound. I'm from Germany too, but up north a bit (Potsdam)
