Quelle est la différence entre un sigle et un acronyme ? Comment savoir s'ils sont masculins ou féminins ?

Edmond FLE

Les sigles et les acronymes

I invite you to tune in to hear the rest of my conversation with Listening Expert Cara Leopold with Leo Listening. This time, we talk about how to get used to different accents and speaking speeds and motivate yourself to learn a language for work or school even if you don't want to. You'll also learn what to do if your language learning has stalled, bad habits language learners pick up when learning a language in a traditional classroom setting, reductions and linking, and how to improve your English skills by joining a movie club. Here are a couple of excerpts from our conversation: "The irony is that it's usually the words that you already know that cause the most problems." "People resent it (the English language), and I understand that because it's imposed on a lot of people, and obviously, we can't expect everyone to be excited about learning it. So I totally understand those feelings, which are valid. I think then, if you can't get excited about English, what can you get excited about? What interests you, in general?"

Express to Impress

Listening Expert Shares How to Understand More of the English Language

This week, you’ll hear from the very first guest on the Express to Impress podcast. Allyson Plumberg, Founder of Rooted Accents: Solutions for Accent Modification, joins me to discuss accent modification. 

Allyson provides speech therapy services and accent modification coaching to students and professionals worldwide. She has a Master of Science degree in Speech-Language Pathology from Arizona State University.

The episode is the first of two with my conversation with Allison. It’s packed full of useful information for English language learners. 

We kick off the conversation with a definition of an accent and have a quick discussion about the General American English accent and micro accents.

Then, we dive into a discussion about common beliefs about accents. Allison debunks common myths that limit people from being able to speak English effectively.

We also talk about speaking speed, word stress, content versus function words, stressed and unstressed syllables, reductions, contractions, and more!

....
Около полудня обыкновенно появляется множество круглых высоких облаков, золотисто-серых, с нежными белыми краями. Подобно островам, разбросанным по бесконечно разлившейся реке, обтекающей их глубоко прозрачными рукавами ровной синевы, они почти не трогаются с места; далее, к небосклону, они сдвигаются, теснятся, синевы между ними уже не видать; но сами они так же лазурны, как небо: они все насквозь проникнуты светом и теплотой. Цвет небосклона, легкий, бледно-лиловый, не изменяется во весь день и кругом одинаков; нигде не темнеет, не густеет гроза; разве кое-где протянутся сверху вниз голубоватые полосы: то сеется едва заметный дождь. К вечеру эти облака исчезают; последние из них, черноватые и неопределенные, как дым, ложатся розовыми клубами напротив заходящего солнца; на месте, где оно закатилось так же спокойно, как спокойно взошло на небо, алое сиянье стоит недолгое время над потемневшей землей, и, тихо мигая, как бережно несомая свечка, затеплится на нем вечерняя звезда. В такие дни краски все смягчены; светлы, но не ярки; на всем лежит печать какой-то трогательной кротости.
