No. What i mean is stuff like two words written different and almost sounding the same or written almost the same (like tomb, bomb, womb or read and dead) and spoken differently.
Die, wie and the first part of Biene is the same except for the consonant. If you know how to say Biene you can say diene (serve) as well. Or Diener and Wiener.
Stretched vowels are a bit stupid, caus you might have aa (Aal), ah (Bahre) and there's the ie but no ii, again there's ih like in ihr.
Dutch has none such execptions except maybe in some names. So if you know how one thing is spoken you know how it's written and vice versa.
That makes vocabulary relatively easy. The grammar also isn't that difficult. And durch has many commonalities with english.
To be honest, at least for west germans it's probably the easiest language to learn. But orthography/pronounciation rules and grammar should make it relatively easy for someone who speaks english as well.
