What do you mean by accent? I can only do an American accent (maybe a little British if I try hard)
True. I just don’t get why so many Americans can be so confident. I hope I can keep up with that. Cause my parents ruined my confidence with all the trauma they introduced to me. But maybe it would help just going out of the country of my parents
Yea it definitely doesn’t sound as bad as many other Germans but I don’t have the American sound down to the nuances so you could definitely tell. Idk why but I think it’s quite hard to get the nuance if you haven’t been raised with the language, it sucks if you don’t sound 100% authentic, I hope it will come with time.
But you really have to study each tone down to its core including its cultural context to get it perfectly. Imma try to do that though for sure
