How do you pronounce Kein Mehrheit Für Die Mitleid?

there´s a wikipedia page that will probably tell you, I for myself respect the choice the band kmfdm has made and stay with the abbreviation ..

I looked on Wikipedia and there was no information.

I also respect the bands decision, but that's not a good reason to avoid learning how it is pronounced. There is no good reason for avoiding knowledge.

Besides, conversations often go something like this:


A: Who are you listening to?
B: KMFDM

A: Never heard of them
B: Have you heard of Rammstein?

A: Yea
B: They're like them, but much better. There's really no comparison.

A: Oh, ok. What does KMFDM mean?
B: Its an acronym for something in German

Keine = no; Mehrheit = majority; Für = for; Die Mitleid = the empathy; loosely, "no empathy for the masses".

If you are wondering how to pronounce the words, it's pretty straightforward. "Keine" sounds like "kind", but with an "uh" instead of a "d"; "Mehrheit" sounds like "meer" from "meerkat" combined with "height"; you can probably guess how to pronounced "für", and "Die Mitleid" sounds like "D mit-light".

thank you

loosely, "no empathy for the masses".

My German isn't that good, since I'm still learning. Where did I go wrong?

the sentence in german makes no sense, your translation does ..

Looks like it's supposed to be a joke or something. "No masses for the empathy", maybe?

Mehrheit is pronounced more like mair-height. Sort of like "hair" with an m.
