There is nothing wrong with having an accent(口音)． In fact, most native English speakers won’t care if you do． You should feel confident about your accent! But as you improve your language abilities, losing your accent might be something you’ve started to think about． And, if you’re entering the workforce in an English speaking environment, it is important to get your pronunciation to a level that native speakers can understand without difficulty． So, here, we’re looking at some tips to help you sound like a native speaker．
| Speak slowly and clearly
Pay close attention to getting your words out clearly and speaking slowly as you go． When your pronunciation gets better, you can speed up your speaking speed． |
Learn the schwa skillfully
The schwa is a vowel which sounds like “uh”． English speakers pronounce many other vowel sounds as the schwa． Learning when to exchange them can make your English sound more natural． |
| Use “He” and “She” correctly
Make sure that you call men “he” and women “she”． If you mix them up, it can be confusing(混淆的)for your listeners and it is a giveaway that you are not a native speaker． |
Fall tone and rise tone fluently
In English, the meaning of what you say can change based on the way you say it． Make sure to work on your falling and rising tones so that your meaning is communicated clearly． |
Learning how to sound like a native speaker can be a hard task． But it’s something you’ll have to do on your language learning journey． If you want to improve your pronunciation, the tips above will be of great value to you．
31． What should you do to make your English sound more natural?
