American English Pronunciation Problems for Indians Many Indians from South Asia speak English very quickly. This makes it very difficult for others to understand what they are saying!Often times their fast speech is simply a carryover from the way they speak their native language. Sometimes they speak quickly because they feel nervous speaking with American English speakers.Speaking English too quickly forces your listeners to work harder to understand you. Pronunciation errors are more likely to occur when you speak fast because you are not taking enough time to articulate the correct sounds and stress patterns.Here are a couple of things that Indian language speakers can do to slow down when speaking English.Pay Attention to Thought GroupsWhen American English speakers talk they divide long sentences into smaller phrases called thought groups.

Why "Celebrity Gossip" Should Be Renamed While a celebrity is defined as ‘a famous or well-known person', celebrity gossip certainly doesn't cover every famous or well known person. Instead, it focuses on the badly behaved and the worst aspects of people's characters. A headline on a gossip magazine rarely emphasises things like charity donations or famous people doing normal family stuff. Instead headlines typically focus on aspects such as infidelity, money troubles or drug taking. While that's not to say this doesn't go on, it does seem somewhat strange that we see reams of news and magazine print about celebrities widely viewed as ‘train wrecks', such as Kerry Katona. However there isn't equivalent print space given to well-behaved people in areas such as Nobel scientists or authors. People might hold up Jeffery Archer as an example of an author with a lot of press, but the majority of that revolved around his criminal activities and jail time. There's nothing wrong with celebrity gossip, but occasionally you have to wonder why people who've done nothing more than appear on a reality show get huge spreads about them, while people who are doing...more
