The Difference between English and Chinese in Pronunciation I find English has a lot of monosyllabic words,but Chinese has lots of polysyllabic words. The difference means when one speaks English their tongues go much more quickly and softly,however,when one speaks Chinese their tongues go much more slowly and hardly. So English sounds like a stream,cheer,quick,and soft,and Chinese sounds like a fall,heavy,slow,and hard. That's why Chinese can hardly speak English like a native.Chinese English sounds like one letter after another,broken English. I think Chinese should mimic native speakers and change their way of pronuciation. By the way,it is not easy to find a native speaker of English to talk here.
