How to Improve Your Pronunciation

Language study is a great way to keep your mind fresh and supple. To fully reap the benefits, you really need to actively practice pronunciation. Try talking on a topic for five minutes until you develop methods of thinking and talking at the same time. Think about how we use the language to be polite or indirect. How does humour added to what we say? How does intonation affect the hidden meaning behind our words? Explore these ideas when you listen and then test them out in your speaking.
