It's good you're practicing reading, but you should really check on the accents.Quote:

Ok I will practice the accents you suggested and try to record again. I assume speaking with the correct stress/accents is something that only comes with much practice =)
Thanks!
You have a good pronunciation
The main mistakes are:
you pronounce большая as болшая and диван as дыван.
Put more attention to palatalizing the consonants, ok?
I will try thank you. If you have a recorder available, could you record this clip for me so I can hear your pronunciation. If not, its ok - thanks!
I gave it a go, but I'm a noob when it comes to pronunciation.
Give it a go, I feel you can beat it!Quote:

advice
just say "bolieshoi" which will sound better than "ball-shoi"
I've never been one to back down from a challenge.Quote:

The stress is in the right place now except for one word стол which should have an "o" sound rather than an "a" sound. As for the pronunciation I can't judge as I'm no native speaker.... :thumbs:
BlackMage, I was right. You rock.
Anthony, you sound monotonously and unnatural today.
Thanks. :DQuote:

You rock because you're functioning and beating illitercay.
I've liked Blackmage's recording best of all. The other recodings are good too but what I especially liked about Blackmage's recording is that he pronounces all the sounds in a very clear way.. Good job, man! You surely rock!
Thank you! And here I thought I was no good. (Actually, I still think I'm no good.)Quote:

Lol, that wasn't that bad, really, not all the words were pronounced perfect but on the whole it was pretty good.
I just don't want people to laugh at me when I talkQuote:
