The song is After Hours by The Velvet Underground
You can point out anything that make me sound weird or difficult to understand.
I'm not confident about my vowels and I actually have difficulty hearing the correct pronunciation

[spice fractal]

hey, im working on a documentary for a speedrunning history of Super Mario 64 DS. Although, I'm brazilian, and im afraid of dubbing the video in english, due to heavy brazilian ascent. May i send my recordings here? also, would u rather a ascent-heavy dub or just a subtitled video dubbed in another language?

I want to make the video in english bc most of the community are non-portuguese speakers

[stoic coral]

its easier for me personally to give u feedback if u not sing. because when u sing the instrument kinda make me difficult to listen to ur pronounciation. and when u sing.

[slim mason]

You can record an audio and, send it to us.

ohhh

[pallid garnet]

For for some it’s hard to judge your accent. It’s quite easy to judge if you are a native speaker. You have a very good voice and it’s easy to understand. Well done

@stoic coral sorry my friend I was just messing I was going to surprise you guys in the voice room and see if you guys could tell where I was from

If someone understand this, could I ask you to help me on grammar?

[river lance]

If you are subjective about your initial career successes (???) it means that you are about to encounter ??? and ??? to your career (act?)

[river lance]

[static badger]

How to pronounce the "t" sound in words such as "but", "right", "that", and so on?

I heard someone saying that you have to hold your tongue and stop breathing for a moment, but I'm not sure if I get it properly.

[latent igloo]

It depends. Some people say the "t" sound strongly but not others

[latent igloo]

yes it can help, or you can just don't say the "t" sound. Like in the word "butt"

[supple sierra]

hey guys! could you please judge my accent? i know it's super bad and i really wanna improve, i just don't know how and i'm really shy! thanks a lot!
also don't be rude hahah https://voca.ro/1kpt64b5RTgk 💛

[river lance]

Not Bad, I could understand it !

[river lance]

that's wrong ! you should place your tongue between your upper and lower

[misty tundra]

there are two ways to pronounce it.

[river lance]

I just saw this, so I apologize for any lateness.
To properly pronounce "t" in those terms, you put your tongue to the roof of your mouth (right before your front teeth) and then blowing it lightly to make a clicking noise. Attached is my own pronunciation of the terms - I purposely emphasized each sound to make it easier for you to mimic.

https://voca.ro/1ggnOSi2hz0z

[river lance]

Your accent isn't bad. It can be worked on, of course, but you are, for the most part, understandable. To improve your pronunciation, I can only suggest listening to someone read a book to you (i.e. audiobook) while you read the text, or by talking with other speakers and learners every so often.

I understand your stress and rage, though. It's definitely annoying to have an accent from your first language transfer to your second (it's that way with my own second language). However, it isn't harming your English accent much.

You're doing really well. Feel free to join the English voice chats here whenever you want!

[bright grail]

Are there Americans out here ?

[river lance]

I have an American accent, if that's preferred. What's up?

[bright grail]

That’s cool me too, I’d like to improve my fluency, because I’m slow and sometimes I think automatically in French

[quaint stream]

I am American, a key thing to keep in mind is that Americans have different accents and also say somethings differently depending on the region. But practice helps, and sometimes either u can go in the vc with someone, maybe watch some movies, or listen to an audio-book.

[bright grail]

Vc you mean vocal?

[quaint stream]

yea voice chat

[bright grail]

To me it’s better to have an American accent than a foreign accent… but it’s my opinion. A regional accent is good for me…

I think my American accent is already great, I just lack practice

[cosmic forge]

Anybody wanna vc

[river lance]

Yes

hi, I am a native Korean speaker practicing my American English accent. i know my accent is quite off sometimes, but can't explicitly verbalize what's wrong with it. any feedback would be greatly helpful!! 🤗 (feel free to destroy me lol)

text: https://www.lesswrong.com/posts/baTWMegR42PAsH9qJ/generalizing-from-one-example

[river lance]

nice accent
vowel sound in **did **sounds a bit off in my opinion

[modest cobalt]

👍

[delicate lagoon]

Your voice is very clear and understandable. Maybe the things that sound a little bit off is either some D or T sounds being kinda strong sometimes and some of the vowel sounds are off

[lucid quail]

Your accent is brilliant but I think you are trying to pronounce the words fast sometimes and it makes you turn back to your native accent. In the beginning It was hard to find mistakes but when you continue to read the text in the 'r' and 's' i heard some mistakes (also my opinion btw). Maybe you can stop and continue to read after the sentences or the words. 'a' word was really good btw. You are at very good level and I hope you get well too.

[glacial knot]

Hello guys! I'm practicing english pronunciation. I'm not that good as of now, could you judge my accent for me to know what are the things I should improve? The passage I read is from the book "Essays that will change your life" Here's my record https://voca.ro/1e6bp3a4oG3B

[river lance]

Idk what my accent like BTW I'm not that good at English

[river lance]

accent sounds familiar 🤔

here are some words to work on:
assume - sounded like [shum] should be [soom] or [syoom]
influx
vulnerable
/th/ in they

you got this

[river lance]

just out of curiosity, were you a lil nervous while reading?

I only listened up to a certain part. I mean the first few min is enough to know you read quite nicely. The only parts I didn't quite get were parts where you tripped over your words.

I don't read the accompanying text while listening the first time. Then, I check parts I didn't quite get afterwards, listening again to make sure it's that part.

"who among other achievements" --> I think you were gonna say "who among others achieve" and then self-corrected

My suggestions when you have to correct yourself in speech

1. Accept that it's ok to make corrections as you speak
2. Correct yourself with confidence and move on 😆
3. Correct the part that was wrong starting from a logical section.
   Here, the mistake wasn't just achievement but from "others". And would make sense to start from "who among...". It would sound like this:

The debate was resolved by Francis Galton, a fascinating man who among others achieve... who among other achievements

You can even start as far back as a fascinating man if you like

" doubts the evidence" --> you said doubts the existence

This has less to do with English ability and more a tendency to predict what's gonna come next (it's normal lol)

[river lance]

y'know what 's trippy for me
saying words ending in /fth/ and /fths/ like in Saks Fifth and four-fifths. I'd try it on my phone's google assistant and sometimes it would pick up what I'm saying, sometimes it'd show me all sorts of different results

[heavy dune]

Hi im studying for my IELTS exam, id appreciate it if anyone gave me any feedback on my accent thank you.

We know that human language is far more complex than that of even our nearest and most intelligent relatives like chimpanzees. We can express complex thoughts, convey subtle emotions and communicate about abstract concepts such as past and future. And we do this following a set of structural rules, known as grammar. Do only humans use an innate system of rules to govern the order of words? Perhaps not, as some research may suggest dolphins share this capability because they are able to recognise when these rules are broken.

[river lance]

hello, I think it's great. 👍 You sound a little bit British. Just a little 🤏
are you working on a specific accent tho?

[heavy dune]

Yes British English, how is my accent?

[river lance]

sorry i didnt look at your roles.
it's beautiful. May be you could speak a bit clearer (?). 🙂 But may be it's just me. (Idk much about accents but I'm quite familiar with the British).
Good job! 👍

[heavy dune]

Ok I will try that, thank you so much!

[river lance]

your accent reminded me of this https://youtu.be/ONilGMpUNGc she too souds british.
but there's a little difference you see.

Good luck with your exams! 🍀

[river lance]

I feel like your T's are not strong enough. then again there are various british accents yk

Alrighty
Check this one "No one can escape the absolute necessity of technology in our daily lives. Each of us is so heavily dependent on technology that we cannot do anything easily without it.
Technology is important because it is used in all areas of life. When you contemplate your daily routine and count all the technology gadgets you consume in just one day, you will realize how important technology is when you use mobile, watch TV, drive a car, and use a computer or any electrical machine.
In fact, day after day is increasing depending on technology whether during communication or transportation or search for any information or even entertainment.
Humans have also reached the moon with the revolution in space"

[late sorrel]

It's good! Really good, honestly. (Are you Russian or some slavic native?) The only thing are some of your vowels are not quite where they should be yet, but it didn't make it impossible to understand. Listen back to how you say the u in 'consume'. And pay attention to stressed syllables! Listen to how you said the word computer in the sentence 'use a computer or any electrical machine', you almost omitted the 'p'

[river lance]

No I'm Egyptian
Thnx for your notes, I will try to improve my myself and focus on vowels

[late sorrel]

well I was completely off 😅 but I guess that's a good thing, no?

[river lance]

Indeed
It's totally fine

I didn't practice so often and I didn't concentrate on vowels, that's why so I guess I get 7.8 or 8 @late sorrel

Btw can i borrow this text for the same purpose or you do have a problem with it?

[river lance]

Go ahead and thanks for your kind reply

[river lance]

listened without reading as usual and I understood every sentence despite some words not sounding accurate

Word stress (it sounded like all syllables had equal stress. stress should be on the 2nd syllable):
necessity
dependent
depending

/p/ maybe too soft:
computer sounded a bit like commuter

ur 'consumer' i'd think English UK, but ur mobile was English US. prolly doesnt matter. mine's a mix too if i don't think about it. but something to note if ud like to be consistent throughout

also, "technology gadgets" " day after day is increasing depending on technology" "revolution in space"
feels a lil off

i think i'd just say gadgets or tech (technological) gadgets

maybe like,
Day after day we are increasingly becoming dependent on technology whether for communication, transportation, searching for information or even entertainment.

Also, humans have reached the moon during the Space Race

Hello. Learning eng. by watching British (dr. who, the witcher) series for 1-2 months.

"In electronics, the Gilbert cell is a type of mixer. It produces output signals that are proportional to the product of two input signals. Such circuits are widely used for frequency conversion in radio systems.[1] The advantage of this circuit is the output current is an accurate multiplication of the (differential) base currents of both inputs. As a mixer, its balanced operation cancels out many unwanted mixing products, resulting in a "cleaner" output."

[river lance]

i finally did a recording haha

so i was raised bilingual, with English being one of the languages, but I'm not from those countries you'd usually associate with English speaking, so I wonder how I'd sound like to you guys

I'm not trying to do any accent. this is just how I speak

thought I'd talk about a chosen topic so you get a better idea how I'd normally talk about something and how I organize my thoughts
maybe I'll do another recording where I'm reading stuff

[river lance]

and here's me reading the first few paragraphs of Neil Gaiman's Coraline

https://vocaroo.com/1lQf1GeGvBWR

"CORALINE DISCOVERED THE DOOR a little while after they moved into the house. It was a very old house—it had an attic under the roof and a cellar under the ground and an overgrown garden with huge old trees in it.
Coraline’s family didn’t own all of the house—it was too big for that. Instead they owned part of it. There were other people who lived in the old house.
Miss Spink and Miss Forcible lived in the flat below Coraline’s, on the ground floor. They were both old and round, and they lived in their flat with a number of ageing Highland terriers who had names like Hamish and Andrew and Jock. Once upon a time Miss Spink and Miss Forcible had been actresses, as Miss Spink told Coraline the first time she met her.
“You see, Caroline,” Miss Spink said, getting Coraline’s name wrong, “both myself and Miss Forcible were famous actresses, in our time. We trod the boards, luvvy. Oh, don’t let Hamish eat the fruitcake, or he’ll be up all night with his tummy.”
“It’s Coraline. Not Caroline. Coraline,” said Coraline."

"In the flat above Coraline’s, under the roof, was a crazy old man with a big mustache. He told Coraline that he was training a mouse circus. He wouldn’t let anyone see it.
“One day, little Caroline, when they are all ready, everyone in the whole world will see the wonders of my mouse circus. You ask me why you cannot see it now. Is that what you asked me?”
“No,” said Coraline quietly, “I asked you not to call me Caroline. It’s Coraline.”
“The reason you cannot see the mouse circus,” said the man upstairs, “is that the mice are not yet ready and rehearsed. Also, they refuse to play the songs I have written for them. All the songs I have written for the mice to play go oompah oompah. But the white mice will only play toodle oodle, like that. I am thinking of trying them on different types of cheese.”
Coraline didn’t think there really was a mouse circus. She thought the old man was probably making it up."

What do you think my accent sounds like? Any specific region?

Thanks in advance

Exert I read:
"It was on their first day at the house that Rosie saw the stranger child. Standing at the sink,
her hands deep in suds, Rosie was overwhelmed by the tasks that lay ahead of her. Tired
after the long drive from London the evening before, she gazed vaguely at the sunlit,
overgrown garden where Sam and Cara were playing.
The sash window had old glass that blunted the image, wavering the straightness of fence
and washing line, pulling things out of shape. Sam was kneeling beside the patch of earth
that Rosie had cleared for him, making hills and valleys for his matchbox cars "

"The ground is full of magnetic elements. Iron, nickel, cobalt.
The ocean's floor is [lying with/lined with] them too."

I'm practicing my listening skill. Which of the two is the right one that actually was said? Both make sense in the sentence. Someone goes for the first, but another person for the second. It's confusing.

[earnest sandal]

I'd go with the second one. To be fair, I've never heard lying with in such a context so it wouldn't sound right to me

Trust me I'll respect you. Please try to understand that i need to improve my fluency asap, cuz I've got an offer for a job. And theirs only requirement for this job is english fluency. Which i haven't fully mastered yet. Please! Help me i don't wanna lose this opportunity 😥

[river lance]

@elder vapor what's your native language

[river lance]

So guys I'd appreciate your help and taking the time to judge my English Accent.. Thank you so much

[grim urchin]

oooh, your english is not that bad, you just need to keep using english a bit more. your accent, it's probably just me, but you do have a bit of a slavic accent, and a bit of an american accent. I'm not really good at determining an accent.

and here's mine. i need to know what accent that I'm using (since i mixed several accent whenever i talk)

here is the script if you need it
ah. You're finally awake. how do you feel?
I Know i know, you're probably wondering. Who am i? Where are we?
Let's just say, I'm nobody. but you can call me anything you like. But i do prefer being called Arthur

As for the second question, obviously we are deep within the forest.
Why are we here? you might be asking to yourself.
Well, I'm more or less the guardian of this place. As for you, I just found you lying down unconscious by the river. I Thought you passed out because of thirst and exhaustion.
but looking from the scratches on your arm and your face, that does not say anything about thirst nor exhaustion.
You are lucky that i found you.
For now, just take a rest. If you are hungry, i already prepared a soup right there beside you.
I advise to not wonder around the forest in the dark, as there are quite a lot of dangerous creatures roaming around at night. It is much safer to go during the day.

Well. I'm gonna go and find more people that might share the same fate as you. If you need anything, just wait for me.

[misty garnet]

damn man, sounds like an actual voice actor :DDD

[river lance]

frr

[still sand]

u sound amazing but you sound like you lack the cofidence

u r doing good

just speak motr

[still sand]

is this u :0

u r great

[grim urchin]

cheers, any idea for the accent that i'm actually using?

[grim urchin]

cheers

that's a thing of mine, also one of the reason why i asked about it in the first place

[rocky sleet]

judge my accent
i didnt know what to say, so i just read the fast part in eminem's rap god

why did i do this 😳

[still sand]

0.0 ur accent is fine but weird thing to read

[rocky sleet]

yeah😳

ill maybe record another video of me talking more casually later

[grim urchin]

lmao, this is cool

[pallid garnet]

I’m quite impressed ( you kept in character for the majority of the time. I didn’t really hear you change your accent much. You kind of had a Pierce Brosnan sound. Uk “ish” tone . Very mellow. When you were changing is where it gives away your accent if that makes sense

[slim storm]

https://voca.ro/1fTisF1fzj5y

Would be really nice to get some feedback, thanks guys

[pallid garnet]

I think you are making a good effort. Keep practicing and you will get better. I know your goal is to make it sound like you are a native speaker but for me it’s still easy for me to tell. But in my opinion when I head accent I think of the word acting. Like I can do and accents poorly but you would be able to tell that I’m not from that certain country if that makes sense

If you guys want I have a small amount of time to speak ( I just can’t be loud and I can explain more ) go to the lounge and I will explain what I mean

[slim storm]

For me you really sound like a native speaker. I don't have any advice coz I am myself not even fluent.

https://voca.ro/1dGb4DmZL2O5

Throw some good feedbacks on me

[ebon burrow]

I'm a native speaker and I understood everything you said - most is said correctly with the right grammar.

Just 2 things however, you said "I have been learning English since 7 years" - The correct way is saying "I have been learning English for 7 years". Also, you said "I start speaking English last year" - you should say "I started speaking English last year"

Apart from that, pronunciation of words isn't too bad as I understood everything, good job!

Thanks man, really appreciate it!

For you, I'd say try to not pause in between while speaking a sentence and you would sound much better, but other than that it was good!

He started to walk around the pool again. He had given Kandata a chance to get out of Hell, but Kandata showed that he was a truly bad person, and so Buddha had to send him right back to Hell. He seemed very sad at this. Meanwhile, the flowers in the pool continued to smell lovely. They continued to make their beautiful smell all throughout Heaven, and they did not think of Kandata. The green spider continued to make its golden thread, and it did not think of Kandata. It was a normal day in Heaven, and soon it would be noon. Once, there was a horrible king. He loved killing people. If someone bothered him, he said, ‘Fight me!’ and made the person fight him.

How much Time need to fluent in English!? Like American native speakers

[warm crown]

Person by person, might take longer or not so long for some people

Id say not to worry too much about progress, just keep learning
Personally, I hadnt even realized how advanced my level became through my years of learning - it was a gradual process for me

[velvet pilot]

Dude, you're pretty fluent. You just have a bit of an accent. But that's what makes you unique Keep up the good work man

Here is the excerpt - "Century Casinos, Inc. is a gaming company based in Colorado Springs, Colorado.The company operates ten casinos in Colorado, Missouri, West Virginia, and Alberta. It also operates casinos on four cruise ships for TUI Cruises.[3] It owns a 67 percent share in Casinos Poland, which owns and operates seven casinos in Poland.[4][5]"

[spiral pawn]

i’m not native but honestly i think it’s beautiful

[warm crown]

For the most part, the accents perfect imo
There was only a few points where an accent really stuck out, and that was on the pronunciation of "Casinos", "wikipedia", and "west virginia" and sometimes your words didnt blend together too well
Apart from that, in terms of the diction you're using - it sounds just like a british english speaker I think

In my opinion when it comes to grammar non native speakers are the way to go lol.... Native Speakers can relate lol

Yeah for sure, I've been living in the UK for the past 17 years, don't ask me any grammar questions

I just know what sounds right and what doesn't

Dude your English is pretty good, everything was understandable, and you practically sound almost like a native, but I'd say keep practicing so that your pauses aren't too long. Great work man, and keep it up!

[warm crown]

Well the entire point is that theres no script-

I have to like form my sentences

[velvet pilot]

Yeah ik ik, but don't pause too long man

Pretty good though

[velvet pilot]

Lol yeah I get it man, that's why, keep practicing brotha

[queen falcon]

I’ll listen later in the day when I can, and I’ll get back to you, okay?

[queen falcon]

Okay, your voice is so soothing that I believe you should be an yt narrator🥰 you really almost sound like a native boy

There were just some words where your accent appeared a little bit

But at your young age, you probably will be able to adjust that

With words such as “took”and “Russia” for example

(Your voice is still beautiful tho )

Congrats

Excerpt from the book "The Story of My Life" by Helen Keller

1. The morning after my teacher came she led me into her room and gave me a doll.
   The little blind children at the Perkins Institution had sent it and Laura Bridgman had
   dressed it; but I did not know this until afterward. When I had played with it a little
   while, Miss Sullivan slowly spelled into my hand the word "d-o-l-l." I was at once
   interested in this finger play and tried to imitate it. When I finally succeeded in
   making the letters correctly I was flushed with childish pleasure and pride. Running
   downstairs to my mother I held up my hand and made the letters for doll. I did not
   know that I was spelling a word or even that words existed; I was simply making my
   fingers go in monkey-like imitation. In the days that followed I learned to spell in this
   uncomprehending way a great many words, among them pin, hat, cup and a few verbs
   like sit, stand and walk. But my teacher had been with me several weeks before I
   understood that everything has a name.

One day, while I was playing with my new doll, Miss Sullivan put my big rag doll into
my lap also, spelled "d-o-l-l" and tried to make me understand that "d-o-l-l" applied to
both. Earlier in the day we had had a tussle over the words "m-u-g" and "w-a-t-e-r."
Miss Sullivan had tried to impress it upon me that "m-u-g" is mug and that "w-a-t-e-r"
is water, but I persisted in confounding the two. In despair she had dropped the subject
for the time, only to renew it at the first opportunity. I became impatient at her
repeated attempts and, seizing the new doll, I dashed it upon the floor. I was keenly
delighted when I felt the fragments of the broken doll at my feet. Neither sorrow nor
regret followed my passionate outburst. I had not loved the doll. In the still, dark
world in which I lived there was no strong sentiment or tenderness. I felt my teacher
sweep the fragments to one side of the hearth, and I had a sense of satisfaction that the
cause of my discomfort was removed. She brought me my hat, and I knew I was going
out into the warm sunshine. This thought, if a wordless sensation may be called a
thought, made me hop and skip with pleasure

[queen falcon]

If u are this good in English, can’t even imagine ur French

[warm crown]

Im sure :,)
I appreciate the sentiment though :D

[warm crown]

Much more worse; I've been learning English for WAYYY longer than I've been learning French. More than that I've developed this problem with accents - When I see latin letters, I automatically default into a more English accent because I've associated the latin alphabet with English
And I have this same problem with other slavic languages, since I automatically default Cyrillic to Russian, being that it's my native.
Too convoluted, all this.

In total, I've been exposed to English for nearly all my life but I've only seriously learned it for like 5 - 6 years so

But I put all my time in learning it into grammar and accent, so I'd say that I'm still lacking in vocab
BUT THAT'S FINE
I wouldn't have joined this server if I thought myself to be perfect

[pallid garnet]

well read but if you are going for a "Native accent" you are getting there ( You had good runs with your accent but could tell you broke out of it a few times )

Its unfortunate when you ask "natives" they can almost instantly tell if someone is or isn't native within the first couple words

although I have been tricked b4

[next ridge]

Hello everyone, I'm Avo. I need some pointers on my spoken English. Thank you 🙏🏼

The moons and stars were hidden from sight, making that particular quiet night especially dark. The town guard had to carry torches to make their rounds; but the man who came to call at my chapel carried no light with him. I came to learn that Movarth Piquine could see in the dark almost as well as the light - an excellent talent, considering his interests were exclusively nocturnal.

One of my acolytes brought him to me, and from the look of him, I at first thought he was in need of healing. He was pale to the point of opalescence with a face that looked like it had once been very handsome before some unspeakable suffering. The dark circles under his eyes bespoke exhaustion, but the eyes themselves were alert, intense, almost insane.

[static ocean]

Judge my accent pls

I want to reach a near native accent to get good score on IELTS

[ebon burrow]

You speak really well, well done! I understood everything. One pronunciation was wrong however, "quiet" is not pronounced the same as "quite". One more thing is "considering", you pronounced the s as z. Try to pronounce it with an s and it will sound better, but that is not a big deal. Everything else was very good, good job

[next ridge]

Thank you very much! I will practice more by listening and checking the dictionary for the pronunciation, thanks, Seb 😁

[ebon burrow]

Awesome, you're welcome!

[pallid garnet]

“The light” (needs to be clearer ) (considering, interest needs to be stronger ) exhaustion (needs to be clearer ) @next ridge adding on to @ebon burrow (Sebs suggestions) I think you did really well. I however did catch some other parts of your speech you read. Keep up the good work

The Distances
This house, pitched now
The dark wide stretch
Of plains and ocean
To these hills over
The night-filled river,
Billows with night,
Swells with the rooms
Of sleeping children, pulls
Slowly from this bed,
Slowly returns, pulls and holds,
Is held where we
Lock all distances!

Ah, how the distances
Spiral from that
Secrecy:
Room,
Rooms, roof
Spun to the huge
Midnight, and into
The rings and rings of stars.

It sounds okay to me, but your accent would make some things hard to understand without the text though D:

[warm crown]

Just a little tip for reading poems; sometimes you have to interpret where the end of a sentence is—especially in more contemporary poems where punctuation is basically naught in the poem—but the general rule is if you see punctuation at the end of some lines and not others, you go into the next lines without a pause if there isn't a punctuation mark to say you should stop. Of course this isn't a set in stone rule, but it's good to keep in mind.

Excerpt from "Leech" By Hiron Ennes
The sight of this old train car saddens me, though I cannot quite articulate why. There is something unnamable about the rattling of the empty wooden seats, so like the pews of a deserted church, that puts me in a lonely humor. It is an unusual feeling, since I have never in my life been alone.

Jagged mountains rise and fall outside the window, dotted with white trees and the occasional lodge long since abandoned to the wild. It has been one hour and forty-two minutes since the last snow-shrouded sign of civilization crawled across the landscape, and it will be fifty-four minutes before the next appears. This is not accounting for delays, accidents, breakdowns, avalanches, or seismically-induced derailments.

The only other occupant of the car is a young boy, bundled so heavily he resembles a sphere more than a child. He sits alone because he failed to follow his mother off the train at the penultimate stop, but he does not appear distressed. The conductor promised to deposit him at the correct station on the return south, and he shrugged in reply, biting shyly at the forefinger of a well-chewed glove.

The train stops twice so workers can clear snow from the tracks, adding, according to my timepiece, forty-one minutes to the journey. It is not so deep into winter that such a delay will prove fatal, but I will arrive on the dangerous side of dusk. Perhaps that is for the better. The man I plan to meet at the station is not likely to be punctual, especially since he does not expect me. He may not even yet know of the death that brings me north.

The snow-laden firs bow their heads and shed motes of light as the sun slips between two western peaks. The boy squints out the window, drawing intricate outlines of mountains in his condensed breath and wiping them away with equal enthusiasm. I study him at play, noting his movement and development, his flushed cheeks, the herpetic sores at the corner of his mouth. He is a charming creature.

polish off means whine

halfa jugga shine means drinks alot

me maw and pe paw mean mom and dad or grandpa and grandma

double wide means far

over yonder means over there

kinfolk means kid

My friend speaks fluent southernese

and he claims that it translates to "I didn't do anything like that since I was a kid living far away with my mom and dad. My mom was tough. She drank a lot of whine.

I know a lot of southern words and lingo but I can never get the accent right for some reason

[thorn nova]

oh ok

[ebon burrow]

You sound like a native, however an interesting word you said was "export" - you pronounced it as "export", emphasising the "port". So you basically said "ex" quickly, then said "port" and dragged it out. Usually with words that can be both a noun and a verb, they have different pronunciations - for verbs, you emphasise the ending of the word (like you did), but for nouns you typically pronounce the beginning (Export).

E.g
"This car is an EXport"
"Just exPORT it"

[thorn nova]

oh i see

how about the last word

"additionally"

[meager cobalt]

u did sound native with that word too

anyone can rate this

[river lance]

This guy can rate i believe

[river lance]

If the rating needs to be on intelligibility, then about 8.5-10 (speech might become a bit confusing at times in quick everyday discourse, but it's 100% comprehensible and easy to understand.)

If purely from an accentation and dialectical point of view, 5-6 perhaps? It's a mix of an american and a british accent, but doesn't seem to be a trans atlantic. If you want to retain the foreigner vibe whilst being as intelligible as possible, or convey a certain message, such as me talking like in RP, nothing wrong with that, but if you would like to imitate a native, you should probably choose which kind and stick with it

Some words could be improved upon, such as new orleans and route, but speaking slowly might fix that as well.

You have a nice voice though 👍

[desert tinsel]

im not familiat with american cities like new orleans

so i have a hard time pronouncing them

what do you guys think about my accent and pronunciation?

[river lance]

Lol thats blunt

It’s not «awful» but in time he will improve, he’s already on a good track.

The first part is the only part that needs work, aside from that, pretty good

[river lance]

It's an American accent, but I still believe that I could be of some assistance.

It sounds good; the places where you could improve is the accentation of each sentence i.e. whether it's going up or down at the end of each sentence.

Listening and repeating after audiobooks in your desired accent would help.

Another thing is some consonants, such as 'th'

It's a very difficult one, and will need practise.

Search how to pronounce 'th' and keep practising.

Ur accent sounds kind of cute if u ask me

Your voice is a bit unclear but I understand almost everything you are saying, was it intentional? Or do you really have trouble speaking? and of course you have to relax so that your message is conveyed, don't be too fast.

Please, rate my pronunciation 🙂 Thanks

[barren oasis]

Is that so, I hope you get well soon

[barren oasis]

6/10 Some don't sound clear, don't get too close to the microphone, then the pronunciation of "Salmon" is still wrong.

[stray depot]

Might have to refer back to any of the resources you used to practice speaking. Most of the words are either pronounced incorrectly or unclear

[still sand]

I could not hear some words. Others were incorrect so I can't rate u more than a solid 6/10 just like Seven

[mellow pagoda]

[barren oasis]

Can you write down the sentence you said in the 48th second and the last second

At first I didn't understand but I heard it 4 times and guessed that what you read was Tower of Babel

if I compare the text with your recording, there are quite a lot of words that you may repeat or pronounce incorrectly.

Take notes of words that you find difficult or long to say, then figure out how to pronounce them. do it until smooth and uncomplicated on the tongue. If you have difficulty pronouncing a word that you feel has a similar tone or sound, give it a little pause so that the listener understands.

Hope it helps 👍🏼👍🏼

[still sand]

I hope I didn't mess up badly with my pronunciation O-O
https://voca.ro/12DZbnRUogWp

I wanted to give it a shot and here I go-

[barren oasis]

The pronunciation of "Caramel" is wrong

[still sand]

o

i knew it

shall i record it again?

[barren oasis]

Up to you..

[still sand]

but like

can u tell me

what do i need to work on

overall

[barren oasis]

write on google the word or open an online dictionary, hear the pronunciation and read the pronunciation correctly, imitate and try to record it. Immerse in thoughts and make new correct mentions

[lyric nova]

How do you pronounce it?

Depending on dialect

It can be ca-ra-mel(the way I say it)

Or the American Car-mel

[barren oasis]

She agreed that she was made a mistake, she said Camel not Kar-Mel

[still sand]

https://voca.ro/1ahMC8mBZL5c

Camel is Animal

[still sand]

a cute animal

acute angle

[barren oasis]

Haha.. Hope you do it better from now to the future

I used to be like that too, so many mistakes in pronouncing words. But it's understandable native English speakers, and they also taught me a lot both pronunciation and how to distinguish a sentence that sounds the same

[still sand]

my awkwardness adds up a lot tbh

but ye

practise is all I need to do

[lyric nova]

Ah

I know a native speaker in Canada who can barely pronounce words correctly

It’s a friend of mine from Toronto

[ebon burrow]

a few things I spotted:

Oil - try to pronounce the L more
Iron - try not to pronounce the "r". It's read "ion" (at least in British English😁 )
Data - try to make the "t" sound more like a "t" and less like a "d"
What did you try saying at 0.22 after toilet?

Everything else was really good!

[mellow pagoda]

I'm not trying to imitate any accent

thanks!

I gonna try this later, after study the words.

[river lance]

6— some words are wrong; try to pronounce each consonant clearly whilst you practise before putting the speech back to everyday tempo.

[river lance]

Better; which accent/dialect are you going for?

[river lance]

desert boi

[river lance]

[river lance]

I pronounce iron like I-earn, and ion like i-yonn

[ebon burrow]

Ah yeah that's better, I was struggling with typing it out lol

but I think British sounds great however unachievable for me

[river lance]

Try trans-atlantic

Me too, feel a little nervous when I speak to someone in the past. Communication is the means by which we build a relationship, and it is very important. It's better if you take seminars and training both offline and online on how to speak in public, and read material about knowledge of communication and apply it with the closest people. Maybe you are worried about a bad response from other people but remember, first try whatever results you get will be a valuable lesson.

And one day when you become a leader, it is communication that allows you to move them and lead the business and the work you run. 👍🏼👍🏼

[barren oasis]

Cool, the human ear declines in function as we get older, this of course makes it difficult for us to catch what you are saying if you speak quickly. When we speak, of course, what we want is our message to be conveyed, therefore we need a tempo in speaking, especially when speaking to the elderly.

we talk to convey a message but if you can speak fast and pronounce it correctly maybe you are the rapper singer of the future XD 🤘

[still sand]

I do understand what u say and If I have to be honest ur accent is great!

[river lance]

I completely understand everything you say and your accent is great, however when you say "Gibberish" that G is pronounced like a J, that's really the only mistake I can hear in this.

[warm nacelle]

@wooden carbon Pretty

[wooden carbon]

🥺🥺🥺🥺

[river lance]

Practise cutting off speaking along with any 'uhh' and 'uhms' when you are nervous. Replace that with absolute silence, as if you're thinking. It comes off as much more confident.

Also,
Speaker at a slower tempo in general; it will be easier to remember words that way.

[river lance]

-->the best way to speak in a language is to speak in the formal most manner so as to not offend anybody and be comprehensible to everybody.

[river lance]

Or the best way to teach someone is to teach them the way we actually talk everywhere so they wont sound weird in public

We speak pretty informal

[river lance]

Well yes

If you want to sound native you will do the same

Whilst teaching that is true

Not be like 1800s boi

[river lance]

Like nobody says "Whilst"

Theres nothing wrong with it 100%

[gleaming lantern]

[rugged island]

My biggest issue is the letter P. I feel like Im consuming too much energy to pronounce the letter since it doesn't exist in my mother tongue language.

[gleaming lantern]

new or-leens

pe kahn

agen

sir up

to say the letter P, it's kinda like making a popping sound

depending on the next letter

obviously don't make a pop, but the motion is similar

[rugged island]

When I pronounced pecan I was thinking about bacon with a P (pecan is a new word for me)

Kinda disappointed I mispronounced something easy like again and syrup

[rugged island]

Could you elaborate on this part please?

[gleaming lantern]

its not necessarily a complete difference, its just how its pronounced

my bad

like in potato, you stay in the P position longer than if you were to say something like please

does that make sense? if not then don't worry about it, just focus on pronunciation

it doesn't really matter

[rugged island]

Is it like one of these if a vowel/constant comes after P rule?

[dull kettle]

whom are you talking with

whom are you talking to

which one is correct

this one

although not a lot of people say whom

"im talking to her"

Heyah! It's me reading a text in English. I'm a native Russian speaker but I've been trying to improve my accent for quite a while. The first variant is me trying to speak with an American accent, in the second one I speak without putting any effort to the articulation process.

[soft owl]

you speak more advanced english than most russian speakers that I have met insofar as you have, to a greater degree, the correct cadence and tone of an english speaker, putting emphasis on the right syllables and words 95% of the time.

with that in mind, some mispronounced words:

copy https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/copy
reproduce https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/reproduce
share https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/share
egg https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/egg

but as for the hard part of getting the macro-level rhythm down, you're doing well and should simply continue to practice listening and reading aloud as i presume you already are

[real epoch]

Thanks for the analysis of my speech :)
Yeah, it still confuses me sometimes whether to use this or that sound in words, just a matter of practice I guess

And the hardest words for me to pronounce are the ones that we use in Russian as well

Like «copy»

[soft owl]

oh really? is it a loanword?

[real epoch]

we say копировать
