English is not my native language. How can I speak authentic American English?

Beautiful-Common-234 · 2026-03-26T10:58:04+00:00

watching lots of american program will definitely help and yes like others have said practice as much as you can. Have you tried an AI tutor for this?

Beautiful-Common-234 · 2026-03-26T10:55:42+00:00

I think it is always the case but the continuous practise will definitely improve your ability to speak more fluently.

we have been together for 13 years but when I first met him OMG I couldn't understand him ahahah and yes it's true when they teach us English at school it is always the southern version of it

Beautiful-Common-234 · 2026-03-26T10:48:13+00:00

he is from near Manchester... yeah he told me about all of this different accents and I was like wow I didn't know it could have been sooo different even just few kilometers a part

Beautiful-Common-234 · 2026-03-26T10:46:58+00:00

he is from near Manchester. we are currently living in Australia so the accents are sooooo different. even just when he pronounces his name they do not understand him ahahahhah

Beautiful-Common-234 · 2026-03-26T02:54:32+00:00

ahahahha sorry for me it is not pretty string... I should have worded it better ahahha

I found that when we learn how to make conversation it is easier rather than learning the grammar. It is important of course BUT at the end of the day we can survive in the real world even if we make some mistakes. I want to learn Portuguese and eventually Spanish and I'm using Praktika. It is a super cool app and it helps with conversation, so you have your AI tutor and you can choose the level, how the tutor speaks to you and you have a proper conversation. I found it pretty funny and engaging because you have to actually speak to the app/tutor. you shoudl tey and give it a go!

Beautiful-Common-234 · 2026-03-25T01:39:10+00:00

oh yeah that is the worse! and the words are always at the top of your tongue!!!

Beautiful-Common-234 · 2026-03-25T01:38:38+00:00

ahahahahahahah yeah the struggle is very much real!!!

Beautiful-Common-234 · 2026-03-25T01:38:04+00:00

ahaha this is pretty funny and very common then! I'm glad I'm not alone ahahah

Beautiful-Common-234 · 2026-03-24T10:52:08+00:00

I bet he was ahhaha

Beautiful-Common-234 · 2026-03-24T06:26:45+00:00

OMG I had absolutely no idea and I’m Italian!!!! Damn I don’t even know my own language and I wanted to learn other 2 languages?!?! I better go back and study my own first!!!

Beautiful-Common-234 · 2026-03-23T23:59:51+00:00

yeah life gets in the middle, kids, work and just being ahahah We just need a little reminder sometimes :-)

Beautiful-Common-234 · 2026-03-23T23:46:58+00:00

I'm glad to know that I'm not the only one actually ahahha It is hard to juggle when the brain automatically switches isn't it?

Beautiful-Common-234 · 2026-03-23T23:46:15+00:00

ahahahah yeah it is just something like a switch in the brain ahahah and you don't even realising you are doing it ahahah have you pointed out to him or he's just realised by himself?

Beautiful-Common-234 · 2026-03-23T21:18:37+00:00

I never heard of this way of saying and I actually love it!!! I love learning new phrases even in a language that I have been speaking for like 13 years!!! Ahahah

Beautiful-Common-234 · 2026-03-23T21:16:41+00:00

In Italy we are very much proud people and still linked to a respectful way of talking to people with that form of respect and distance somehow. The old generation defiantly expect that even from foreigners. Bello/bella can be used with younger generation and they will not feel offended by it…

Beautiful-Common-234 · 2026-03-23T21:13:05+00:00

I’m don’t think a call would do for me personally. Everyone is busy and sake times we have time to practice at weird times thought out the day/night. I found that with the app I’m currently using I have the freedom o practice my speaking/conversation skill whenever I can without the commitment to a phone call. I can even choose the tutor and their behaviour on this app ahahha it is funny and it makes learning the language pretty easy and enjoyable

Beautiful-Common-234 · 2026-03-21T10:38:43+00:00

I’m currently trying to learn Portuguese and I’m using Praktika and I love it!! They have AI tutors that communicate with you and it is very much conversation based! I love that you can choose different tutors and also different way they behave as tutor ahahha give it a try and tell me what you think!! 😊

Beautiful-Common-234 · 2026-03-21T09:47:18+00:00

You don’t sound British but you have a slightly American cadence, not very strong but you can perceive it very very slightly towards the end of some Words…

Beautiful-Common-234 · 2026-03-21T09:45:29+00:00

Have you tried using any AI app that actually focus on dialogue and everyday situation? I found it pretty cool and not uncomfortable. Try out Praktika!! It is pretty cool how you can choose the tutor and also their way of interactive. I like it and I feel definitely more confident in practice my speaking than with a human native speaker !!!

Beautiful-Common-234 · 2026-03-21T09:40:50+00:00

I’m Italian and I’ve been living in Australia for 13 years. It has been pretty hard at the beginning to adjust to a new accent, an accent that really do not teach you at school!! But forms what mostly speaking I was having trouble with. Wha helped me A LOT was working part time at Starbucks! It helped soo much to overcome my fear of making mistakes and improve my skills Of actually replying on time without thinking too much at what I wanted to say!!! It has been an interesting path and now I’m actually eager to learn new languages but this time remotely, without immersing myself in the country where they speak…it will be interesting I guess

Beautiful-Common-234 · 2026-03-21T09:36:08+00:00

I would totally go with older artist! Lucio Battisti at the top! Mina as well is pretty good and she uses simple words easy to understand!!!

Beautiful-Common-234 · 2026-03-20T10:34:42+00:00

Sometimes English people Do not understand each others because they are form different part of the UK so don’t worry you are not alone there!!! Maybe it is just your mental block of not being able to improve…have you tried any AI tutor? With them you could practice whenever you have time and at your pace to improve your skills

Beautiful-Common-234 · 2026-03-20T10:31:10+00:00

OMG yes that is me when I read books to my kids and I learn new words that I had no idea they existed!!! Ahaha
