The muse (voice version)

Hi, I wrote an English text and I would like to know how is my English accent on it.

I dowloaded it on YouTube, let me know your opinion !

Your pronunciations is excellent. However, now and then you have tonal errors and stress weaknesses, i.e.,

0.45 deed - stress the ee, like deeep

0.48 notices - you forgot the s

1.02 wicked - perhaps you preferred using be right?

1.06 bad - it sounded like bod

1:48 caressed her body isn't clear

2.02 word isn't clear

2.06 witness sounds like watness

2.49 They couldn't sounded like

2.49 passion sound like patent

2.52 Could they? sounds like cruel day.

Apart from a few words that could be improved, you are doing very well. Actually, I jealous of you, as my French is nothing in comparison to your English pronunciation. You also have a pleasant sounding voice.  If, for example, we were speaking with someone and not reading a text, I think most of this minor errors would never occur.

Also "I don't want to be wicked" /wikid/, not /waikt/ :)

Watch out for "art" - it has no "h" sound at the beginning in English. Or are those titles mistaken - are you saying "hard" and "heart"? Try to make sure to sound your "s" sounds at the end of your plural nouns, and your third person singular verbs. "Corrupted" - the "u" is shorter and lower than you sound it :)

Woaw, great job, I wasn't expecting that! Your speaking is really clear and your light accent is no barrier to comprehension. For me, the words where your pronunciation was most noticeably French were the following: Notices (you drop the 'es'), corrupted (the u sounds French, should be more 'aah' sound), hairs (you drop the 's', kissed and caressed (you drop the 'ed'), brush, (same comment as for corrupted), word, witness, spectator, crowd, passion.
