As you prefer. You'd be easier to understand with a normal russki accent than with whatever this is.

I mean isn't it beautifully ironic how he spams pronunciation posts and yet one can barely understand him.
If anything the lack of awareness together with the breathy spergy speech proves that there is a critical lack of self awareness. It's both sad ans scary at the same time

Telling a native English speaker to "cope" when they give you helpful, constructive criticism over your pronunciation.

Do you think I should switch to the British accent?

In that case, does listening to this recording make you want to forget English? T-that doesn't count! Why? J-just b-because it doesn't ok?!

It's AI.

Do you think I should switch to the British accent?

Could you please record a vocaroo of you speaking with a British accent?

Just to be safe:
All pretty good except for the 'Rührei', strangely enough. Just too ... I dunno, "soft"? See

Other than that I'd recommend putting a bit more emphasis/force on the "B" of 'Brötchen' and "sch" of '-schächtelchen' respectively. Great otherwise.

Interesting, thank you for the recording.
Native English speaker anons of /lang/, does he sound British?
How would you rate his accent from 1 to 10?

But I’m Aryan as fuck, Prussian-German phenotype, and you ignore me Russia-kun.

What did you say?

Send pedo porn.

If I am listening without having text to read along to, I understand about as many words as I do in my TL that I have been doing for 2 months. That is to say, not many

Then set you volume higher or something.

Kek holy shit it’s literally exactly the same but with a forced vowel shit. You have to be b8ing. PLEASE just talk to some English speakers, no matter the accent.

I think this:

I’m curious to see how you’ll reach an advanced literary level in English and just stroll into every conversation with natives ready to correct their pronunciation, but they’ll barely understand you.

it's the same but different in everything that's different

Ok.
Sounds very Mexican-coded.

its peppa pig time. one hour down, three more to go. its my italian experiment.

Why only four hours?

Yeah it turns out IPA fails to encapsulate the full depth of dialectical difference Ivan.

Just make your volume higher holy fuck.

I mean that you sound nothing like a native british speaker whatsoever. Like you just took your “American” accent (which also still sounds like a Russian trying really hard to use IPA and not like a native at all) and slapped an incredibly forced and unnatural vowel shift and called it a day.

This would all be fine, if you were open to learn, but you’re not.

you just took your american accent and made it british

Wow. You must be really smart in America.

sorry, four hours today. i plan on watching every episode in all 6 seasons, then take note at how much my italian has improved. im starting from 0 italian and not using any other forms of study

"Ah, so e don happen. I don finally find di ultimate English pronunciation pattern wey go make sense! Na like dis e dey:

0. We go yarn American English as base, still carry all dia main wahala like dat /æ/ wey dey rise before nose sound, an’ how ‘marry,’ ‘merry,’ an’ ‘Mary’ don marry each odah (no be lie!).
1. Di COT an’ CAUGHT vowels don become one useless [ɔ] (just round ya mouth like say you dey vex).
2. Di STRUT vowel don shift commot go front like [ɐ] or even [ä] (abi, na same damn thing!).
3. Di TRAP vowel no go move—e go still dey [æ], but dat useless OUT vowel go follow am dey near like [æw].
4. Who send you to raise PRICE? Make both ‘prise’ an’ ‘price’ just dey [äj] make we hear word!
5. Di GOOSE vowel go waka small go front as [yw], but GOAT vowel no go gree move—e go still dey back as [ow] or [ɔw].

E sound smooth like palm wine, no too much stress. Di two kain yeye problems wey bin dey make me dey mad don clear:

1. No need to dey force STRUT vowel to turn to dat kain [œ] nonsense wey sound like frog dey cough—COT vowel no go jam am again!
2. An’ no need to dey use dat flat [ä] rubbish for words like ‘ALL’ (who send you?!), an’ no need to dey kill yasef to separate COT-CAUGHT vowel from ALL vowel. Na win-win!

off by one

Is it the native American English, sirs? Like what he wants me to speak like? Lmao.

You sound Indian.
So basically it's a Turk, an Indian, and another Indian who are mad at me. Colours me surprised.

Yah man dis be how we dun do da talk’n bout tings man

Ok. So may I stick to the proper British English at that point? Like just compare this to this I'm terrified.

Amazing

You can't unironically think I sound bad. Just stop baiting me.

You should try to sound more like this

You can't unironically think I sound bad. Just stop baiting me.

a million hours of IPA

dabbler weakling

study grammar retard

if this is what IPA does to an esl mf i am second guessing my inclination to go to uni for linguistics...

never

I already sound good with IPA and everybody understands me. Maybe the volume of my recordings is too low due to the shitty micro but the pronunciation is very clear. Just raise the fucking volume on your side.

you will never be fluent

So it seems I've found the ultimate English pronunciation model. So it goes:
0. we take American English as the basis, keeping its main features such as pre-nasal /æ/ raising and marry-merry-Mary merger etc.
1. the COT and CAUGHT vowels are merged to the rounded [ɔ].
2. the STRUT vowel is fronted and lowered to [ɐ] or even [ä] (they're really the same sound).
3. the TRAP vowel stays as [æ] and the OUT is brought closer to it as [æw].
4. no PRICE raising, both prise and price have [äj].
5. the GOOSE vowel is fronted to [yw], while the GOAT vowel stays back as [ow] or [ɔw].
It sounds pretty neutral and natural and is easy to maintain. Basically the two problems I struggled to resolve all along are solved:
1) there's no need to artificially elevate the STRUT vowel into a weird strange-sounding [œ]-like schwa sound to avoid its merger with the COT vowel,
2) and there's no need to either use the merged unrounded [ä] in pre-dark L environments (like in ALL) which sounds extremely weird as well nor to maintain the inconsistent distinction between the merged unrounded COT-CAUGHT vowel and the rounded ALL vowel.

No amount of volume boosting will fix your slurring ass. You sound like Ethan Ralph on a bad day if he was russian.

wanna bet?

It literally will.
