Do you have an accent?
Guess what?! So do I!
People seem to think that having an accent is a BAD thing, but it’s only bad if your accent is so heavy that other people can’t understand you. Everyone has an accent — even the Queen of England!
The key to clear and confident communication has nothing to do with your accent, but everything to do with your speech and articulation. Whether you’re from Utah or Uganda, New York or New Delhi, focus on speaking clearly, not on changing your accent.

How do I pronounce new English words correctly?
Heather i was thinking of buying Ged a course for his 50th birthday,or is
he too long in the tooth for redemption. Speech impediment and neanderthal
articulation make this man a threat to society in his current state.What do
you think? : ) Ash
@MegaAshski Oh, Ashley…. you crack me up! I think it would be the perfect
gift for Ged! Please record him practising for me, ok? Preferably before he
hits the pubs, although it might be funnier after. 🙂 PS-> For everyone
outside the loop, Ged is a NATIVE English-speaking mutual friend with
amusingly horrible articulation. 😉
Great….Great…Great…
