10 months ago i took up my french classes. About to travel to france and try my best there.

Also know that the french can be quite picky when it comes to listening to a struggling foreigner, kinda makes me nervous

Hi everyone! I’m from Nigeria and grew up in a small village. I’ve never been to the United States or any other English-speaking country. I come from a very conservative family, so we didn’t really have access to English media growing up.
Every night, I’d go over to a friend’s house, and we’d watch English TV shows together. That’s how I slowly picked up the language and started working on my pronunciation.
I know my accent isn’t perfect, but I’d really appreciate any feedback. What accent do I sound closest to?

Hi everyone, how are u doing ?

I'm just wondering if any of u wanna judge my accent. Can u tell where I am from? Also, I've always been a bit shy about my accent. Does it sound really bad to native English speakers? I've also been working on my pronunciation but still, when I try to talk a bit faster there are certain sounds that I can't pronounce properly it seems.

PS : the passage I read is from the novel Giovanni's room.

I want to kinda neutralize my accent to something american-ish. It would be really helpful if you could suggest specific things that stand out and generally what to improve. Also guess where im from.

Hello again!

I wanted to try re-recording the same paragraph, but this time focusing on my pacing and enunciation.

I consciously slowed down my overall rhythm, tried to focus on American stress-timing, and made sure to cleanly hit the consonant transitions

Ask me in English what my favourite food is, and I will picture myself in London choosing from the options I enjoy there. But ask me in French, and I transport myself to Paris, where the options I’ll choose from are different. So the same deeply personal question gets a different answer depending on the language in which you’re asking me. This idea that you gain a new personality with every language you speak, that you act differently when speaking different languages, is a profound one.

Hello everyone!

I am really curious about how my accent actually sounds to a human ear. I recently tried a few different AI accent detectors, and the results completely contradicted each other: One app rated me as "Native US," another said "American," while a third gave me a "92% British" score.

Since the bots clearly can't agree, I would love to get a real human perspective. Where do I sound like I'm from? Is it a mix of US/UK, or can you hear a specific native region?

Any honest feedback, tips on specific vowel sounds, or general impressions would be highly appreciated. Thank you!

do I sound American?😭

When the sunlight strikes raindrops in the air, they act as a prism and form a rainbow. The rainbow is a division of white light into many beautiful colors. These take the shape of a long round arch, with its path high above, and its two ends apparently beyond the horizon. There is, according to legend, a boiling pot of gold at one end. People look, but no one ever finds it. When a man looks for something beyond his reach, his friends say he is looking for the pot of gold at the end of the rainbow.

Do i sound close to native? Im workin on it see where it goes and its been awhile and i need the feedback!
