@eirmosonline.bsky.socialAlthough it's not a bad idea to work on your accent, your #pronunciation problems are more urgent.
And, honestly, when you say "My house likes me very much" or "Chickensoup likes my mother", it's not your #accent that betrays you.
Stop listening to clueless #influencers.
Just saying.

@kilolingo.bsky.socialFrench pronunciation rewards learning the silent letters as a system, not word by word. Final consonants usually go quiet, 'eaux' is just 'o'. Once the rules click, spelling stops looking like a cruel joke. #LanguageLearning #French #Pronunciation
@odonohoe.bsky.socialEven the days of the week can spark a pronunciation showdown. How do you say Tupperware, cabinet, button, and Saturday? #theodonohoeagencygalveston #Pronunciation
@emory-f8.bsky.socialYeah, that bothers me too.
I live in Indiana, so that's two out of every three people I meet.
@bonnieht.bsky.socialDo you want to improve your English reading, spelling, and pronunciation? Are you confused about verb tenses, homophones, spelling exceptions, vowel digraphs, and other challengers. Check out www.youtube.com/@PennyRedink #ESL #English #pronunciation #language
@twichty.bsky.socialIs that how you say it??! #twichty #twitch #pronunciation
@nihongo-sensei.bsky.socialJapanese 'r' sound is neither English R nor L β it's somewhere in between, like a soft 'd' almost. γ γ γ γ γ. Practice saying 'ladder' really fast! π π£οΈ Try using this today! #LearnJapanese #Pronunciation
@andrewcgrant.bsky.socialIs it AL-mond or AH-mond? It's both.
The story of "almond" involved adding an L to its spelling, losing it from its pronunciation, then adding it back in its pronunciation due to its spelling.
@hebrewbyinbal.bsky.socialPronouncing the βSukkotβ greeting correctly and so much more with my PSP System!
Speaking Hebrew with the proper syllable emphasis is a must. Come learn more about how I help you master it.
@andrewcgrant.bsky.socialNo one agrees how to say "pecan" (and that's fine)
Many think it's a regional split but survey data tells a different story, one involving 3 axes of difference and an Algonquian origin.
@andrewcgrant.bsky.socialApe-ricot or app-ricot? It's both. And Iβm not sure how we got here.
"Apricot" circled the Mediterranean, turned P to B and back, and added an Arabic definite article. And yet none of that explains the different pronunciations.

@andrewcgrant.bsky.socialIs it "care-a-mel" or "car-muhl"? It's both, and so many more.
It varies by region, with the OED listing six acceptable pronunciations (no matter how the French pronounce it)
@kilolingo.bsky.socialRecord yourself speaking, then wince. Everyone hates it. But you cannot fix a sound you never hear yourself making, and the gap between how you think you sound and how you do is where the accent lives. #LanguageLearning #Pronunciation
@habliko.bsky.socialPractice the "th" sound by gently placing your tongue between your teeth and blowing airβtiny effort, big clarity! π¦
