    I'm second english learner sometimes for us it's difficult to sound like a native but with your videos I have been improving my pronunciation I'm happy because you're a great teacher you have been helping me with your wonderful videos 💖. Thanks for being a great help for us

    • @Englishwithkim

      Thank you for the kind words! I'm happy to hear you've been able to improve your pronunciation by following these suggestions. It is hard to sound just like a native, but people definitely notice when you're making an effort to speak clearly because it's easier to follow what you're saying. As I often say, trust the process, and keep going!

    My three-year-old has mastered the art of stressing or reducing certain syllables, so this is very learnable. In my General American accent with slight New England and Los Angeles influences, I pronounce the first syllable of “vacation” as “vay”, not “vuh”. I have elsewhere heard the latter, however.

    • @Englishwithkim
      @Englishwithkim  4 года назад

      That's awesome! The rhythm of English can be challenging if you've grown up speaking a language that is more syllable-timed. Yes, both pronunciations of "vacation" are acceptable. You will probably appreciate this video where I talk about the words I struggle to pronounce: ruclips.net/video/IOoXVZSNdzs/видео.html I realized when I was editing the video that I use a lot of secondary pronunciations of words. I can actually hear that my regional accent is stronger now that I've been back in New England for a few years. Ha!

      English with Kim Great video! I share many of your non-standard pronunciations like “kilometer” and “jewelry”. French also has words that are difficult to pronounce. My favorite is “Chartres”. Two guttural Rs in close proximity!

    • @Englishwithkim
      @Englishwithkim  4 года назад +1

      Do you mean you want to speak with an American accent? The biggest challenges I notice for Spanish speakers are stress, contrast, and vowel sounds. It takes practice to speak with the rhythm of American English if you're not used to it.

      That's awesome! That's the goal for so many people. In my experience, there is always something that will reveal your accent, whether you're a non-native speaker, or you're from another part of the US. It's up to you whether it's truly worth working on!

      You have to explore the pitch range in your own voice to find what feels natural to you.
