Then you may be technically able to speak both English and French, but either or both with terrible accent. French cousin and English boing don’t end with the same sound.
I speak both fluently and with proper accent. Maybe I don’t understand phonetic notation? Please just explain what Germany is saying to France in the meme?

Germany is ending the word “cousin” with the same sound as English “boing”. There is no simpler explanation, and don’t pretend like it depends on knowing IPA. Understanding depends on knowing how “cousin” and “boing” are pronounced correctly.
If you cannot understand it from this, if you can’t hear how those two sounds differ, then I can’t help you. Maybe listen to some audio files of those nasals until you can tell the difference.
This did not elucidate anything to me

You just did a terrible job at explaining this, don’t accuse anyone of anything.

Many germans pronounce “cousin” like coosang.
The french word ‘cousin’ (which is used as a loanword in German), but with a weird German pronounciation.
