Why do we feel we know how to pronounce a word and we even pronounce it correctly in our brain but when we want to say it, it feels totally different pronunciation. I even discussed this idea with my friend and he told me the same.

Some times it is really difficult to pronounce the word, even when you feel you can say it correctly in your mind. Especially the linking in English.

Our English teacher always focuses on pronunciation but we can't stop laughing when we hear ourselves pronounce a sentence or a word. I didn't feel that when I used to read in English because I read silently but after I discovered this issued I started reading loudly.

Hi all,

I'm looking for a partner to practice speaking English. We can make regular conversation once a week at least.

My level is upper intermediate, so I can make myself understood.

I want to practice English just to reduce the time it takes me to produce a sentence and to be a bit faster at speaking.

I prefer American accent so I always try to imitate it.
