online german dictionary wihth audio pronunciation for words
Probably not, as German pronounciation is extremely logical. If you learn the rules, you can pronounce everything. For samples of German, listen to net radio or TV.

Through my experience, I have learned that German pronunciation is not as straightforward as let's say...Spanish.
When reading a German word like "tochter," I don't know whether to voice the r at the end or not. In some recordings, they second syllable is an unstressed e sound, but that is contradictory to the rules because you're supposed to voice the r. For example...
"bitte" has an unstressed e sound.
"bitter" is supposed to have a voiced r to distinguish it from "bitte."
So I don't know when to voice the r and when to not voice the r.
And I also have problems with stress. In multisyllabic words, where does the stress fall? In spanish, there are concrete rules of placing stress, but in German, I have not come across any rules.
Can someone please help? Maybe direct me to a link where they have an in-depth analysis of German pronunciation?

German doesn't need such a lexicon,you read what it is written.
No problem with spelling and pronounciation as in french and english!
