Asian Accent ? Hello everyone, I'm looking for some friends with whom I can practise speaking English. It actually isn't a big deal for me to chat in English, because I know quite a lot of slangs and idioms. But I find it so difficult talking to foreingers. I have a really bad accent actually. I just can't get out of my Asian accent. And when people don't understand me and ask me back: " Sorry, what did you say ? " I immediately feel so shy and disappointed and reply to them " Nothing" or " Never mind " then end up the conversation. That's reason why I have lots of overseas friends and talk to them fluently which is just on the internet, never in the real life. I'm also into British accent, I wish I had that accent, I think I can learn it aswell if I try my best. But the first thing I need to do now is to try to practise speaking English with someone and try to lose my Asian accent. I would appreciate if you guys could please help me. Thanks in advance.
