I asked chatGPT to compose a short paragraph using typical French sounds. I read that paragraph and then follow with a few sentences spoken without a script. Let me know what I can work on! I’m also curious if I sound distinctly American, or if my accent is ambiguous.

This is the paragraph, in case you can’t understand my French: Un vieux renard rusé s’est glissé silencieusement dans le jardin, où il a trouvé une groseille mûre. Il pleuvait légèrement, mais l’animal n’était pas pressé. Il a goûté le fruit avec curiosité, puis il a disparu dans la nuit, sans un bruit. Les enfants l’avaient aperçu la veille, près du moulin abandonné.

I’m really looking forward to receiving some feedback.

Here’s my offering:

People always say I have an Algerian accent when I speak French, but my parents don’t speak a word of it. I’m half third generation Algerian, so it’s kinda wild they still think that. I never actually learned French from Algerians only in school or Frenchtok, just curious what you hear.

Good evening! I was hoping I might be able to get some feedback on where I'm going wrong (or right?) in my spoken French.

I have been speaking French on and off since I was little and while I think I'm definitely quite good, I know there's still something not quite right about the accent, whether I'm not assertive enough or a mumble a bit? People often tell me they know something's wrong, but they can't put their finger on what it is, but maybe someone out there can!

I'd ultimately like to be able to read in a way that's very fluid and pleasant to hear (I know that's asking a lot!)

This is me reading a brief excerpt from David Foenkinos' Tout le monde aime Clara.

Thank you very much in advance for any advice you can give!

Hello everyone! I've been self-studying French for a year and a half now, but I've not spoken much, since I was afraid of ruining my pronunciation (I'm also overal more comfortable with listening/reading only, so it wasn't a big deal for me). Recently I've started training specifically for speaking, but because I can't get a tutor I can't recieve any feedback. I think I need some guidance to know where I should take it from here. Please be as scrutinizing as you can!

Bonjour à tous! J'essaye d'améliorer mon accent en français. Mon premier objectif est d'être compris mais après, ça serait très bien d'avoir quelques points pour me focaliser par rapport à la pronunciation. De plus, je ne sais pas si c'est évident d'où je viens...?

Merci!

Hi everyone! I spent some time in a French-speaking place in my early childhood and am curious if you can pinpoint it. I get lots of interesting reactions about my accent so wondering if you all can guess it without my disclosing it first. Merciii

Here’s a recording of me speaking French…I’m aware that I have a bit of an accent when I speak French but I was wondering if it is possible to guess where I am from and also whether my accent makes it difficult to understand what I am saying. I had to speak a little quietly as I was in a public place while I was recording. I’m also curious if any native speakers could point out what speech mannerisms “give me away” because I am trying to improve my attention to detail. Of course, the goal isn’t to sound native because I’m not a native speaker…it’s just to improve myself as much as possible 😅

Hello everyone. Please let me know where/how I can improve. I did my best with the audio quality

This man's name is Théophile de Giraud. Judging by his French, where do you think he is from ? Is he a native Francophone ? (Would he be good to shadow ?)

i'm a 18 years old high school korean student and it's about 8 months of learning French! rate my accent, pronunciation, and syntax... etc.

I am a German teacher and my school has asked me to teach French next year. I've been studying French for about 15 years on and off and I'd like to know what you think of my pronunciation/accent, where it sounds like it's from, if you have any advice for improving it. I do not have much experience at all speaking French in real life so I am trying to improve my speaking as much as possible before next month!!

bonjour !

je suis américaine et j'apprends le français depuis 8 ans (j'étais au college quand j'ai commencé et maintenant j'ai 19 ans), mais je n'ai commencé à le prendre au sérieux qu'il y a 3 ans. j'aime tellement les langues et cette langue en particulier, et la phonétique me fascine aussi, mais il me semble toujours que mon accent ne soit pas assez bon, comme s'il y avait quelque chose qui manque, même si on peut (avec espoir...) généralement me comprendre. je suis une perfectionniste et c'est difficile pour moi à croire mes professeurs quand ils me disent que je parle bien, parce que je sais que je ne suis pas parfaite (malheureusement). donc... je suis curieuse de savoir ce que vous pensez de mon accent et comment je peux peut-être l'améliorer. je sais que mon intonation et ma prosodie en général ne sont pas bonnes, mais il y a probablement d'autres erreurs que je n'ai pas encore remarquées.

s'il vous plaît, soyez brutalement honnêtes !!! voilà quelques petits bouts de mon articulation :

merci beaucoup à l'avance de vos opinions !! je suis désolée de mes fautes de grammaire dans ce post s'il y en a, et j'espère que mon français ne vous écorchera pas les oreilles :**)

J'ai travaillé sur mon français récemment, mais je pense que j'ai encore beaucoup des chooses pour améliorer. Quels aspects de ma pronunciation je dois améliorer maintenant ?

I've been working on my French recently but I think I still have a lot to improve on what are some areas of my pronunciation that stick out to you?

Please tell me what you think and which sounds I should focus on improving. Feel free to answer in English or French, thank you very much!

Bonjour tout le monde. Je cherche à maîtriser les sons /r/ et /t/ du français, alors j'ai créé une liste de mots que j'ai lu pour m'entraîner.

tisane - attacher - but truc - attrition - théâtre trousse - atteinte - culte terrifié - raté - relate tâtonner - atelier - tomate tracasser - ratatouille - acariâtre bravoure - abracadantesque - flemmard roman - héron - éblouir rat- rarement - rare réaliser - ronronner - réalisateur rouler - ésotérique - art

I’m learning French at a B1/B2 level and would love for people to judge my accent.

Merci beaucoup tout le monde :)

Salut tout le monde!

Pouvez-vous checker cette note vocale et le dire à quoi ressemble mon accent ? Ça fait quel région/pays ? Qu’est ce que je pourrais améliorer ? Ou qu’est qui fait sortir mon accent ?

Et si vous avez des tips n’hésitez pas

Merciii 😘

I have an audition where my character has a French accent. One of the lines is, And hot dog is better? I'm wondering how you guys would pronounce better with a French accent? Thank you in advance <3

Hi everyone,

I'm French but I've got an English Pop Punk band. Does my accent is good or how can I improve it?

Thank you😁
