[-==ahylingel==-]

just see it as a challenge.. to correct and properly pronounce the words that you utter in the future.. it's for your own good.. don't let them pull you down or affect you.. aja! ^_^

Just think...

If you got hired based on the standards of your company, that means you and your teammates are on the same level. If it weren't the case, then you'd be elsewhere right? So if your English comm skills suck, theirs might make no difference at all.

hmmm.. a thread that dates back 2 years ago..


anyway... dont mind the your teammates.. NOSI BA LASI bai... ana lang

naa man jud uban tao nga gahi ug dila but you have to accept the fact that the norm in your workplace is expected to demand good pronunciation of english. don't complain about how they tease you, take it as a positive criticism and work on it, now that you know your weakness. always practice a tongue twister of the sounds or letters that you mispronounced. in that way, you'll get used to the diction.

ayaw lang na sila i-mind. but practice lang aron sa sunod, kahibaw na ka kung unsa-on ang correct pronunciation...

Take it as a challenge. Practice, practice, practice. Don't mind your workmates. Chances are, you might still have FLI (first language influence) in your accent. It has been fossilized after being used to speaking that way for so many years.

My advice? Listen to foreign newscasts. Tune in to CNN and repeat how they say the words. Read more books and accustom yourself to the English language syntax. Converse in English with your teammates and friends as much as possible. Practice harder. After all, you can't win Rome after just 1 day of siege.
