More than any other phrase in German I have a problem pronouncing zum mitnehmen. According to how I read the word mitnehmen I should be using 3 syllables: mit-neh-men, but when I hear German native speakers say this word, it sounds to me like they're only using 2 syllables: mit-nehm.
Is this because they are just saying it very quickly, but they're still using all three syllables? Or are they actually only using 2 syllables?
