It's kind of strange how a huge number of monolingual anglophones don't seem to grasp this at all. Witness nearly every English newspaper talking about German football players who are apparently called Muller, Ozil, etc. They are actually different vowels, not just decoration. Mispronunciations are understandable, but this is as simple as copy/paste.
