I just realize that native speakers always release the air from their belly while speaking English. It’s like always having strong air behind the words they speak. It’s totally different my accent in Vietnamese. This video is really useful for me. Thank you very much.
@Englishwithkim2 жыл бұрын
I'm happy to hear this helped you! Yes, breathing from the belly helps you get more power behind your words. Some people breathe more shallowly, and you can hear that reflected in the way their voice sounds. It's wonderful that you can identify the differences between English and Vietnamese! I also encourage you to explore resonance, as this also influences the quality of your voice. You can experiment with these exercises: kzbin.info/www/bejne/ana2ZXiPj7Fnfbs
@NamNguyen-wz5yn2 жыл бұрын
@@Englishwithkim Yes. Thank you very much. I’m practicing your exercise right now. Normally, I always make a deep breathe inside my belly before I speak a sentence to make more power and smooth, then I make it again for the next sentence. But I still can’t imagine how can I make a sound from my chest when I count from 1 to 10. :D

Since I started recording videos, I have learned to speak for a longer time without taking a breath. It makes it easier to edit the videos.

Hi Ms. You said : Remember to include a slight rise in pitch after each thought group. But I don’t know I understand it correctly. For example: 11:12 The last time I was here/, we waited for a table/ for over an hour. In this sentence, I need to raise pitch at “ we’’. Is that right? ‘’We “ is a unstressed word , it is on the baseline pitch so I need to raise “we “ one step above the baseline.
@Englishwithkim2 ай бұрын
The slight rise at the end of the thought group. In the example you mentioned, your pitch would rise on "here" and "table" and fall after "hour."

Great video! I've often been reluctant to breathe through the mouth. Some vocal coaches recommend against breathing through the mouth saying that it's not natural. But now I wonder.. if that were the case, we'd probably yawn through our noses. I once went scuba diving where we had to breathe through our mouths all the time, and I noticed thereafter that I was able to speak with a much deeper resonant voice.
@Englishwithkim5 жыл бұрын
I came across that same advice about breathing through the nose in my own research, but it just doesn't come naturally to most of us. The tip that made the biggest difference for me was relaxing the back of my tongue to reduce the gasping sound! Like my other video on finding your voice, it's about experimenting and finding what works best for you. Like you said, you found a more resonant voice once you deepened your breath while scuba diving! As I've done more and more KZbin videos, I've started breathing more deeply so I can finish a longer sentence without taking a breath. That saves me a lot of editing time. 😂

@Englishwithkim5 ай бұрын
Excellent use of thought groups! I definitely feel that thought groups become easier with practice. You get a better sense of where to pause, the most common types of chunks, etc. Pausing will seem less obvious to listeners if you pause where they expect you to pause. That said, it will likely still be evident, especially when you're using pausing for effect. The pauses give your listeners time to process what you're saying. It's okay that people notice that you're pausing!
