3 tips for sounding like a native speaker

How to speak like a native English speaker? Here are the tips. Check it out to make yourself a better English speaker :) 



1. Connect consonants to consonants. 
   
For example: 

we do not say: "black coffee", we don't say: "ke, ke". There's only one "k":

We don't say "o" - sorry -, we say sort of a small "e". "Wha do ye do?" Practice that. "Wha do ye do?" Strange, huh? No "t", "wha", "de ye do?", "Wha de ye do?" That's how a native speaker would say it naturally.


2. Roll the consonant into the vowel and separate the syllable before.
   
 A syllable is the vowel sounds in a word.

Native speakers don't say: "Not at all. Oh no, not at all." 
We say: "Oh, not-at-all.", "Not-at-all.", "Not-at-all." 
The "t", so this becomes: "No-ta-tall", "No-ta-tall", "Not at all". Say it quickly, blend the letters one into the next. 

3.  we squeeze some words.

Certain words, we don't say all the syllables, we don't even say all the letters. I've heard many students say: "Com-fort-able", "com-fort-able", but native speakers, we don't say this part, we don't say the "or". We say: "Comf-ta-bil", and notice the last sound is like a small tiny, tiny little "i" in there. "Comftabil", "comf-ta-bil", "comftabil". We don't pronounce the "or": "Comfortable". Nope, don't do that.
