VIDEO TRANSCRIPT BELOW: Hello, guys! Hello, boys and girls, and welcome back to Accent Adventure video blog! I'm Robby, accent learning enthusiast, English fluency expert, and your friend above everything else! And, now, I'm back with another Accent Adventure video blog. To tell you the truth guys, I haven't been publishing on this website for more than half a year now, which is a long, long time. And to be totally honest with you, I wasn't sure for some period of time whether I was going to continue with this blog or I was just going to let it die a slow and natural death. But, lately, I decided - why not? I just could publish a video every now and then to keep those of you happy who are keen on following my accent learning adventures, right? And currently, as you may guess, I'm speaking with the General American pronunciation. But, funnily enough, some people think that I don't sound like an American English speaker AT ALL, which is obviously not true. Yes, I know for a fact that anyone can tell right from the get-go that I'm a foreign English speaker, and I don't sound exactly like a native English speaker, and I probably never will for that matter. But, it's not even my goal. I'm just trying to sound like an American. I am trying to nail the American English sound such as the distinct "R" sound, right? "Or", "my problem", "we’re partners, remember?"  - it's one of my previous videos. That's why I was using this particular phrase, right? But, I'm just showcasing you what exactly I'm focusing on when trying to sound like an American English speaker. And I know for a fact that I'm getting the general feel of the pronunciation, if you like, when I'm speaking. And I got a comment recently saying that... Let me read it! It was on my other English Harmony channel, right, on YouTube and I received a comment saying, "Why do you have American accent? I thought you were living in the United States." So, there you have it! Some people think that I have American accent and they can definitely tell that I do sound like an American. There Are As Many Different Opinions As There Are People! And then on the opposite scale of the comments we have someone who said recently that "I have to tell you that you don't sound American at all. You might have a slight American twang, maybe, but you've got an accent that is somewhere between soft and medium, and it is a very distinctive Eastern-European sounding accent." Well, obviously, all comments and all opinions are welcome to my YouTube channel, and my blog, and everything, and I'm not knocking anyone for publishing their honest opinion on my pronunciation. But, the reason I recorded this video was just to show you guys that other people's feedback matters very little. If you're on a journey to improve your English generally or acquire an American accent, or a British accent for that matter, or you're just generally trying to improve your pronunciation and make it clearer, and basically you want to make yourself being understood with ease, right, no matter what your goal is, you should take other people's opinion and advice with a pinch of salt. Focus On Your English Pronunciation And Ignore the Naysayers! Meaning, you shouldn't take it too seriously because there are people who will think that no matter what you're doing you're not good enough. And, then, there are people who will congratulate you on your achievements and they will actually probably try to compliment you no matter what. They won't even point out your mistakes or whatever. Do you know what I mean? So, the best way would be probably to give a very constructive criticism so to spea...
