The art of writing I'd be really chuffed and grateful if someone corrected this small text. ______________________ The art of writing By now, there can be nobody who does not recognize that the art of writing is falling down quickly whereas the number of writers, if they can be called truly writers, increases faster than ever. This relationship between quantity et quality is well known in economic domain, but nowadays it’s specially manifested in the social media. The point is, beforehand, if we wished the people read what we had written, it was necessary to fight in a ring with many others whose dream was the same. This competition made the fighters better by pressing them to development and improvement in this art of writing: who dares to deny that a well written text boosts the lector and makes the information much more tasty? For the sake of this competition, we could see many good writers whom day by day become more and more rare. How can we overcome this problem?

The imitation exercise I should be grateful if someone would kindly correct my text! _______________________________________ One can find everywhere on the internet videos and articles about techniques and advices addressed to foreign language learners who wish to reduce their accent when they are speaking another language. Beyond the correct pronunciation of each word which is surely important for learners in order to be understood, there is another aspect that although is not necessary for the comprehension, many learners desire to achieve: the perfect native accent. Getting native accent means to use the same “song” during speaking, that is, to make the same rhythm and nuances as a native produces in a spontaneous way. If one lives abroad in a complete immersion and makes efforts, he may acquire it. But, is it impossible for these who live in their own countries? I do not think so. My main argument bases on the imitators. They can imitate the personality, the voice, the rhythm et cetera. If the language learner uses the imitator’s techniques, perhaps he should gradually create a new “personality” or adapt his. Having realised it, I have been working on my accent through this method. For it, first I chose one native person whose personality and lifestyle are near to mines, secondly, I watch videos trying to notice the speech “song” of this person. Then, I transcript the speech and repeat some sentences in an imitation way. I do not ignore that this exercise is not the most pleasant language practice and it could become a little boring as well as hard, but in my view and by my experience I risk to say that this imitation work is efficient.
