Pronunciation
Pronouncing every word correctly leads to poor pronunciation! Good pronunciation comes from stressing the right words - this is because English is a time-stressed language.
Here are some telltale signs that you need to focus on improving your pronunciation of your new language:
»You stumble or hesitate when pronouncing certain consonants, vowels, combinations of consonants and/or vowels, tones (if applicable), stress patterns, intonation patterns
» Teachers, tutors, helpers and/or others point out problems with your pronunciation
» You struggle to pronounce words, phrases and/or sentences clearly enough to be understood by native speakers of your new language
» When listening to native speakers of your new language, you can understand isolated words, but you find it difficult to understand the stream of speech
» Native speakers have to speak especially slowly so that you can process their language, even though you can readily understand the same sentences when you read them
