There is no such thing as 'correct' pronunciation of any language ....
Ha ha. Of course there is.
Which is why so many people go to big efforts to properly learn languages, proper pronunciation and correct grammar. As well as the meanings of words.
Just because there are often regional accents to a language doesn't mean there isn't a proper way of saying the words.
Too bloody true, John!
Just because you're free to pronounce a word in your own quaint way, and because there are accepted regional differences (tomato/tomato), doesn't mean there aren't rules of proper pronunciation, grammar, and especially spelling. (Millennial thumb-talkers please take note!) Without agreed rules and practices, we would degenerate back to the prehistoric days of point and grunt. Much like using touchscreens and texting....
That being said, I have no idea of the accepted German pronunciation of the word nickel. Sorry.
