>Notes on German: "eu" is pronounced "oi" (not the English pronunciation of "o" and "i", but the international one), so you got the pronunciation right, but not the spelling. For instance, Europa is pronounced "Oiropa". In Greek it is similar, I understand. Apart from this vowel combination (and another one: "ei" being pronounced like "ai"), the pronunciation is quite regular in German.

Thanks, Hilmar! I studied German in 4th and 5th grade, but I remember nothing from these years. Also we tried to study German with my future husband couple of years ago, but again, I recall nothing...

Similar thing happened with Hebrew. I was able to speak, read and understand it, but now I remember just few common phrases and the alphabet...
