Kugelschreiber.... |

Hello audio deviants!
I have an idea for a new project, and I was hoping for a teensy bit of help...
If you have the time, this is what I would like you to do:
Please record yourself saying the german word: "Kugelschreiber" - meaning ballpoint pen - and post the wav in this thread. If you speak german, please use your best german accent, if you do not speak german - use your own accent (no pseudo-John Cleese goose-stepping, please )...
I deliberately did not attempt a phoenetic spelling of the word, because I think it would be interesting to have some voices (who clearly do not speak german) attempting to say the word. So PLEASE, if you don't speak german, record yourself attempting to say "kugelschreiber"...
If you want to say the word a number of ways (ie inflection, tempo, pitch changes etc), please do! Also any bitrate is just fine...
Of course, whatever 'product' emerges out of this project - electro-music.com [tm] would be the first to hear it!
Looking forward to any replies...

These are fantastic! Thanks guys!
Great quality and very usable, all...
Please keep them coming, if anyone else wants to contribute (or if you can post any more deviations..) - my enthousiasm for this project is growing enormously thanks to your input.
::watch this space::
PS: MP3s are fine, unless you spend a lott of time/effort on your recording, in which case it may be a waste?
----------------------------------------------------------------------
EDIT:
Seraph; do you have any more cool text-to-speech voices you could use and post?
----------------------------------------------------------------------
EDIT2:
In the interests of saving electro-music.com [tm] discspace - I have downloaded all attached files before this post, so you can delete them
