Correct English Pronunciation.

Dean William

This is a topic that has been brought up in conversation over and over again without getting a real clear answer to.

 

So now that this has been mentioned, let me say this… 

 

“Depending on which English accent that you are interested in, all pronunciations are good to learn, but if you really want to be clearly understood without being misunderstood, it is best to speak as clear as you can without speaking very fast at all.”

 

As for myself, I feel that the best English speed and accent to learn is the California English accent because almost everyone in California can easily be understood all over the world.

 

I’m sure that many other native English speakers will say something else, but this is my own opinion, and I really don’t care about what anyone else may say and or think about this.

 

Other than that, the bottom line is this…

 

If you concentrate on pronouncing every word and phrase correctly in a very clear way while not speaking too fast, almost everyone in the world who is able to speak in English will have a very easy time to understand you.

 

If you are really serious about improving your pronunciation and you are willing to do what is needed to get yourself to speak much more clearer in English, feel free to send me a message and we can talk about it when I am free.
