Does Accent and Pronunciation matter in PTE exam ?

[@mohammedrizwan420]

I was concerned about the accent,thank you!

I would have liked to have been born in Switzerland, who apart from being amazingly rich and peaceful have three official languages, viz. Deutsch, Francaise et Italiano. This is superseded by Singapore with English, Mandarin, Malay and Tamil (rather than Hindi) but everybody speaks Singlish, a combination apparently with Cantonese and Hokkien mixed in.

When it come to pronunciation there are differences how UK pronounce it and US pronounce. Specially where they sounds the syllable stress. Ex Yoghurt, Vitamin, Aluminum I not sure which one I should practice.

Listen to Mike Maloney of goldsilver.com speaking. The most beautiful English voice I have heard was a female Paypal telephone operator from the southern states of USA.

Not surprising perhaps as there are 350 million English speakers in USA. Indian PM Modi is putting more accent on Hindi and less on English. As we all know, English is the language of jobs. All ex-French colonies, such as Haiti, appear fluent in Francaise. This helps with migration, say to bi-lingual Canada.
