funny accents :)

I've been staying in England for six months already, but still struggle 

to learn English grammar and speaking. 

Studying a second language gives you a new sense of values and opportunities to 

share and a different culture and so on. Especially in Japanese, it's hard to pronounce 

'r' and'l' sounds because japanese doesn't differentiate the sounds of 'r' and 'I' when 

speaking . This video below shows a japanese boy speaking In English with a strong 

japanese accent.






 However, The guy seems to exaggerate a 

bit the expressions with a strong 

japanese accent when speaking in 

English, but I'm impressed with his 

imitation skills. 














Living and studying in the UK offers me the possibility to practice my english 

accent even though I do not apparently have a strong japanese one when speaking, 

but some people have the ability to easily learn and imitate a language more than 

others. The following video illustrates a boy who imitates different accents in the 

english language. Even though it looks like he was naturally gifted to imitate accents, 

I think that it takes a lot of practice and training to reach this level !
