Pronunciation, posted by Fer.




Each language is a vast variety of knowledge.

Some people consider English as a "weird" language, because they consider it is difficult to learn, and one of the reasons why they think that it's because of the pronunciation.
Phonetically, English contains several unusual challenging sounds.
When I started studying English I considered that one of the most difficult parts of learning a new language was "Grammar", then I realised that it wasn't. At school it was easier, "copy-paste" method or just repeating what my teacher used to said. 
Then I started getting confused about pronunciation, every year was a different teacher , so I had to "addapt" myself to how each one of them pronounced the words. At first of secundary, a new "system" arrived to my school, my director made a agreement with University of Piura, which consisted that the teachers of this university was going to be our teachers and they will divide us in levels acording to our english knowledges.



At the beginning it was hard to get accustom but at the end we got the rhythm. I learned some things about phonetics when I was in 4th grade but that was all.
Now that I'm in the university I used to practise by myself but I think I should practise more bescause today , when I was doing pronunciation exercises I noticed that it is not too easy as I thought.
