Greetings! :D Leo's here. I'm living in Hong Kong, one of the busiest metropolitan city in the world. Mandarin is my second language and English is my third. I'm currently learning Japanese mainly my reading books and watching TV shows. My goal is to be able to go to working holiday in Japan as soon as I can ;) My English is defintely not perfect but I was able to obtain 8.0 overall score and 8.0 speaking in Ielts. If you are interested in either Cantonese, Mandarin or English learning, you are most welcome to hit me up with anything you wanna start with :D こんにちは！LEOです。語言交換も大好きし、いろんな人と話すことは興味もあります。コロナの三年間ずっと日本語を独学で勉強していました。早くペラペラでしゃべれるようになるのは私の念願ですが、今はまだまだです。一生懸命に勉強しているのに、まだポロポロした日本語しか喋れません。 英語は私の第三言語として、完璧わけがないですけど、 IELTSという英語試験で 8.0点を取りました。もし英語、それとも中国語を勉強している方がいるなら、メッセージしてくれれば嬉しいです！ よろしくお願いします！

    Some thought about the accent of a language Is the accent really important for a language? For me, it's definitely YES.

    First of all, the accent will clearly affect whether the listener can understand what you are saying. No offence here, but if somebody says "chocolate" like "cho cor le dor" in Japanese, I believe it takes time for the listener to understand it. Secondly, I believe that language is the key to bring people together. If you can be able to speak like the way the local people do, they might be more open to talk to you, about their culture, family, society, or even their personal life. For a curious person like me, instead of just chitchatting, I always want to know more.

    But on the other hand, fluency is a factor that language learner should not neglect, as you will not always hear native people talking stammeringly. However, if we focus too much on the fluency, the accent of our native language will be coming out so naturally. Some people might say that the fluency is the utmost important for speaking. I somewhat agree with that. But just for me, I will put accent in a higher priority, not just because I want to pretend to be a overseas student or ABC (lots of people are thinking this way if they heard somebody wants to mimic the native accent), instead I want to shorten the distance between me and people in various countries with diverse culture.

    Hopefully I can get more and more fluent in English alongside the correct pronunciation and accent. What do you think? :D

    我是一个手机游戏的程序员。今天在办公室我们的老板有一点紧张。测试游戏后他很悲观失落，不要奠定任何目的，只说游戏还很坏差。我面对告诉他，说他生气很没用，我们只想要一个目的目標和改善我们的工作。他道歉了说他有一点紧张，因为他想要求一个完美的游戏。而且因为人们都巴不得试一试我们的做作品。

    I always listen to the music I like. Or I would like to sing it while playing my guitar. This always makes me calm.
