This short video deals with a German sound whose pronunciation is not difficult for speakers of Arabic because it is used in Arabic: short "e". In German it is represented by two letters: "e" and "ä". And if you can't pronounce it, you can easily get from German [ e: ] down to [ ɛ ]. It requires some training though.
