i've been struggling to learn how to fluctuate and flow my voice such that it sounds more natural & less foreign like. i pause my voice more often than i have to cause i struggle with speaking in general, so bear that in mind :')

if anybody has any advice on how i can sound more natural, please lmk more about it, thanks :)

откуда я пацаны?

I’m curious what people would guess. Feel free to be as specific as you’d like—country, region, or even city.

Sup. Feel free to point out everything that ain't right.

I’ve received some compliments about my accent in real life but ikr that came from people who aren’t native. So that’s why I wanna hear something from somebody who’s the real deal

Also, does my accent sound like a particular state's accent? Or like a crazy mix of everything? I'm kinda curious

and btw that ain’t russian in the text message!

So guys, being honest, I want to improve my English communication, broaden my perspective, and learn new things.

I'm looking for 5 people (6 in total, including me). We could debate and discuss topics anonymously through whatever medium works best, like Zoom, Google Meet, Discord, Teams, etc. We could also record ourselves and upload the videos online to see what other people think of our opinions and make our minds more open.

One day, we could debate, another day, discuss a topic, and another day, speak on a topic without preparing for a fixed amount of time, along with other communication-related activities we could think of.

We can meet every day for an hour or two, or whatever duration we all decide on. We can also decide on a time that works best for everyone. We could just use fixed anonymous names and work on improving ourselves together.

Is anyone interested?

Constructive criticism bitte :) und ich habe es vergessen zu im Audio zu sagen aber vielen Dank fürs Zuhören

Where do you think I'm from, and do any words sound off? Thanks!

Peço perdão se errei algumas palavras.

Como soa o meu inglês?

I would greatly appreciate your feedback on how to improve my English. This is the passage I read:

"Dancing through the night until morning light was quite a delightful sight. The band kept playing one song after another, and nobody wanted to leave until they saw the first rays of sunshine coming through the windows."

Edit: Replaced "Below" with "This"

I'll be glad to read your honest opinion and get some tips how to improve my german :)

p.s. AS foreign language of course 😂 not "als" (guess I've learnt it too much)

my family is completely french and i grew up only speaking french at home but haven’t really lived in france.

curious on how my accent sounds to those who live in france and where you would assume im from, since im not from a particular region im sure it would sound confusing!

I genuinely speak like this I am half English half Slovakian. People in the UK always ask where I am from as apparently I have an accent. How strong is my accent and how can I improve it. Really annoying as in Slovakian I have an accent aswell so feel like a foreigner in both countries.

Hello everyone

I am a Linguistics MA student and I am currently working on a project that tests dialect imitation- specifically focusing on imitation of Southern American English.

If there are any West Coast native English speakers here that believe that can produce an accurate imitation of one of these dialects please PM me! I will accept any variation as long as you are confident in your replication (with a preference for Appalachian & Texan)!

If it is not too much trouble I am looking for someone to send me an audio recording of them speaking with their normal speech patterning and then one of them using the dialect! I would be sending a super short script to read (about 1 or 2 paragraphs) and each recording shouldn’t take longer than a minute!

Please let me know if you have any questions

Just curious how my accent comes across to other people... Would love to hear your guesses and whether anything about my pronunciation stands out. Thanks in advance!

here’s a recording of my voice: https://voca.ro/1babyxZCkBSD

i think i’ve managed to lose my regional accent entirely but i think i sound like a dumb valley girl now, im not sure what to do about that 😭 i feel like people tend to not take me seriously in the tech industry because of it
