How can i improve my accent in english?

Question

I watch movies without subtitles,i read many english books etc.Can anyone help me?

Answer 1

I recommend that you learn Phonetics. Check out in your local library or book-store for a book on phonectics and pronunciation.

Seccondly, you absolutely must learn the correct sound of every common word.

I reccomend for listening practice to listen to Radio NPR, if your learning American, or to the BBC if learning British. It is better than movies because the pronunciation is very careful on the radio.

Answer 2

It depends whether you want an English or American accent but you should listen to the radio and films in english and try to copy the way they speak.

Answer 3

Hello there

i think u should make friends, and listen to them, watch tv, listen to the radio and take english clases and read the books. and it will take about 2 years to improve your accent :)

good luck

Answer 4

Podcasts are the way to go because when you're listening to a podcast you focus solely on the spoken language (how words are pronounced, which ones are stressed, et cetera) without being distraced by the images.

You can download podcasts for free using iTunes:

Yes, and listen to music and sing it with the lyrics standing right in front of you.
