Can you really hear your own pronunciation mistakes? 👂🎙️
happy Sunday everyone! 👋 A study by Dlaska and Krekeler showed something very real for English learners: https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/abs/pii/S0346251X08000602 Most people can tell they have an accent…but they often struggle to hear exactly where the mistake is. 🤔 In other words: we often hear the version we meant to say, not always the version we actually said. 😅 That is why recording yourself is so useful. 🎧 Not to judge yourself.Not to feel bad.But to become more aware. Because once you hear the gap, you can start to fix it. ✅ So here’s a small challenge for today: 🎙️ Record yourself saying 2 or 3 sentences in English. 🎧 Listen back. 📝 Notice just one thing you want to improve. Small awareness = big progress. 🚀 Have you ever listened to your own English and thought, “Wait… do I really sound like that?” 😅👇
