ok first off, try reading and try making sure you speak through the mic ok, i took
a test on my reading and it's where it's suppose to be, sorry it's so bad, do you
want me to say something without reading, even if my reading is bad, but it's NOT
in real life, you still should hear my American Accent, I do live in Minnesota, and
I'm not in elementary school, I'm in High School, and my first term I got all A's
and B's Thank very much

At first I was undecided about whether the speaker was American, but after
three listenings I decided that she was. The pronunciation of "the" and "something"
sounded nonstandard, true, but the pronunciation of "there", "older", "like", and
"scarce" was a giveaway. The [ai] in "like" was pronounced a bit like [ei] -- such
regional features are typical of native speakers.
BTW, does anyone know what the third word in the recording is?

Ashley,
I would like to have your script and do a recording and let you people comparing.
I believe I can imitate your accent because you sound same as my maid.

I was thinking of sending my own file but after reading all you comments I'll think
twice! hehehhee
Actually, I don't know how to do it, I will appreciate any help about it, thanks

My god, I wouldn't be able to talk to anybody if I didn't know how to talk english,
I'm from Minnesota, United States, you're just not use to hearing a northern accent
that's all

hes just used to hearing his moms accent every night as the sleep together :P

I have no idea what the third word of her passage is, Tom. It sounds like the book
she is reading is a kids' book. It's definitely not a classic of American literature
that I would expect students in this country to be reading by the time they get to
high school.
I'm sure Ashley sounds a lot different when she's actually speaking to her friends
instead of reading, and probably more like what people think of as an "American accent."
