I love all the accent. That meme was was great idea. While listening to some recordings I was surprised that many who speak German as a second language have some troubles with the word "Zoo". I've never thought that it could be hard to pronounce that "Ts"-sound at the beginning.
Yeah, that's true. However, I don't think that they actually have problems to pronounce the "ts" but simply pronounce the "z" like they would in their native language. Many languages have the word "Zoo" too. Most speakers of English, for example, try to pronounce the German o in the end while they're apparently not aware that the "Z" is pronounced differently as well. :)
