I don't really like to speak and don't talk that much because I am really self-conscious about my way of speaking. I am more comfortable in speaking English than my first language maybe because it feels less "personal."

I do change my way of speaking in any social situation or place depending on who I am talking with.

When I speak English, I try to be as concise as possible, but unfortunately, I feel like I always start rambling and losing myself in my words, but that might be due to how nervous I am and how I overthink my words when I speak in class.

In French, I feel a bit more confident on how I talk, therefore I really like to have long conversations about my own interests, especially with my closest friends.

In a more private context, I feel more confident when I speak English, especially with my friends, whom I know will not judge me, so I suppose it's all about how nervous and anxious I might feel.

People sometimes think I'm American when I speak English

I have a change of attitude and confidence when speaking English

I put a lot of importance and pressure on the way I pick up an accent

I like to speak both French and English but I sometimes prefer to speak English because I feel like I improve a little bit more every time I have the occasion to talk to someone in this language.

Sometimes when I talk in Spanish people say I have an English accent and I think it's flattering even if I don't think I do 😅

The tone of my voice changes a lot depending to who I talk to and in which language but that's really not on purpose and it even disturbs me sometimes :')

I mostly use English online, to swear, comment and share some stuff. My usage of French would be more on a daily basis (Makes sense as I live in France). I don’t really know how I would rate my English accent. Foreigners (Malaysian, Indonesian) had me confused for an American - 🦅🔫.

I like speaking like a British sometimes it’s funny.

And I love speaking in League of Legends that’s very interesting

also in French adding G at the end of words

I like to talk to English speakers or people who's first langage is not french.

French people from the north will identify the fact that I am from the south, but some people from the south have said that I have that my accent from the north of France.

I don't like to ear myself in french because my voice sounds bad on recordings.

# data[].attributes.body
I feel confident when I speak in French, and I always adapt my way of speaking to the people I speak to.

In English, I'm more direct because I'm learning so I prefer not trying to make funny sentences.

I am self-conscious only when I speak French to a foreign language speaker.

Since I mostly learned English at home by watching TV and listening to music my accent is a very weird mix and match of many accents (American, Australian…) and I have quite a hard time when I have to focus on only one accent for school for exemple. I’m currently learning Mandarin and I thought it would be easy since picking up English felt very natural back in the days, but i genuinely feel like i’m not making any progress and the way I speak is ridiculously bad. I curse a lot and my mother doesn’t seem too proud a about it but I really can’t help it.

-I grew up learning both french and romanian

-I sound more french than romanian because i grew up in french school so when I go to Romania my relatives notice that i speak differently especially because i dont roll my Rs so they make fun of me because of that .

-I think my level of english is pretty good but i am very scared to use it to talk to people online in voice chat and I dont know why .

I come from the south of France but my accent is not very strong, so it’s not easy to guess.

Sometimes when I speak French, my brain works faster than my mouth, so what I want to say doesn’t come out the way I expected.

I think it’s easier to talk casually in English rather than French.

I prefer to speak English because in my native language (French), I have the bad habit of stuttering so people tend to think that I just "flex my skills" since I mix both tongues in my speech but I swear, I am just really struggling, sob.

Native eng speakers (mostly americans) cannot tell where I'm from and often mistake me for a german girl.

I have took on my partner's irish slangs and mannerisms.

I love the way I talk,Fares deleted my previous post so I'll just say, I used to be self-conscious but now I'm very happy and confident cause I found a good balance between talking and being comprehensible so I'm happy.

# data[].attributes.body
I like to talk with people who speak English and French. Most of the time I don’t like hearing myself speak in English because I’m afraid of making mistakes and having a bad accent. I think that I speak differently depending on who I am talking to.

# data[].attributes.body
Funnily enough I love to talk to strangers in video games in English , however i must say that I am just gonna speak in an informal voice and sometimes I must say feels uncomfortable ;

I also enjoy trying to speak with different accents and ask people to guess the accent !

It is so funny how people just tell me I am rude when I speak in French

# data[].attributes.body
I feel comfortable and confident when I talk to my friends more specifically when I talk about my passion as I know they will encourage me and be proud of me. But around stranger depending on their age, I have the impression that they will judge me when I speak so may I am less confident.

# data[].attributes.body
I don’t really feel confident when I speak english to people I don’t know cause I hesitate a lot and I feel like they will judge me.

But around my friends I don’t care cause I know they won’t judge me but encourage me even if I make mistakes. And finally I hate hearing myself speak in English.

Usually, when I speak French (2nd language) or English (3rd language) I don't have any accent but when I speak Filipino, most people (local) tell me that I have a "foreign" accent. They directly understand that I didn't grow up in the Philippines which is true. This is still surprising to me because my parents are native Filipino, they taught me the language without any accent and it is my 1st language...

Depending on the person I speak to, I might lose my usual accent (ex: speaking to a native English speaker, I unconsciously speak English with a French accent)

I’m CJ (that was the question right?)

I sometimes feel guilty that people strike me as North-American because I already feel like I’m not French enough but that’s okay because I love being French

Sometimes I do pretend to be American to trick people. It’s funny.

Since I don't live in Tunisia anymore, it's weird because now sometimes I want to speak in Arabic, but my friends don't understand. So, I make them learn some words (I confess, sometimes not good ones)

I sometimes feel I have a really obvious French accent, so I sometimes even accentuate it LOL.

Someone once told me that I have a Parisian French accent - I almost cried… please I am from the South of France✊.

When I went to Barcelona I thought I knew how to speak Spanish, then they all spoke Catalan I was like AHIIIIII.

I enjoy speaking both french and english with people. When I speak english and I get tired I start speaking with a very thick french accent. I speak more often english than french.

I speak french with a bit of an accent from south of france.

I have a strong french accent when i speak english.

I use a lot of french expressions

# data[].attributes.body
I am self-conscious about the way I speak English because some of my French accent still overlaps some words that I say.

I love to speak English with friends because I can use some sentences that I read on the internet that I find funny, or use cuss words. I love oral English classes and hate literature.

I’m way more comfortable speaking Portuguese than any other language, especially with my family. I feel like I have a bit of an accent when I speak English and French because I haven’t spoken these language my whole life. However, when I go back to Portugal, sometimes I feel like my Portuguese is not like before and that native speakers hear a difference or an accent.

1. I don’t feel like I have any particular type of accent when I speak any language.

2. However I hate hearing myself speak.

3. I like to imitate accents when I am bored.

I like speaking with children (very cringe very « mhooooo »)

I like speaking with the Southern accent!! very demure very mindful (thanks grandpa for the legacy)

I think that people can identify that I’m from the south of France but they don’t usually get Corsica right (I even got Belgium once …).

I use a lot of Corsican expression when I speak French, and I like to teach them to people.

I’m self-conscious about my bad English accent and I would like to work on it.

Write your first name and last initial in the title. Then write three things about how you feel about how you speak.

I like to speak to people who know French and English so I can use both, but sometimes I don't like to hear myself in French. I think people identify me more easily as from the south of France than from Scotland. Occasionally on the phone a French telemarketer will call me Monsieur - perhaps French women have higher pitch.
