Please give some advice on the accent (audio sample)

Just recorded some audio sample. Please give me some advice. Thanks in advance!

Here is the script:
...with McCain and his supporters hoping that Palin could again be a game-changer for the struggling campaign. While the Palin pick was an enormous boost for McCain in September, exciting social conservatives and drawing women to the ticket, the Arizona senator's poll numbers have faltered over the past two weeks as the economic crisis has deepened.
With surveys showing that voters put more faith in Obama to fix the economy, McCain has seen his support drop both nationally and in critical battleground states such as Virginia,...

This is quite a noisy message. The voice has been recorded over a noisy background.

Amateurish recording!

Yes, there is background noise. Does the noise make it impossible to hear what I speak?

To AWESOME:
Oh? Really? Your comment is really AWESOME. Then tell me how stupid do I sound?

Lynda,

What's your native tongue? Most of it was really good but the word "tradition" was off quite a bit.

God.

Only "tradition" puzzled me a bit.
But I guess you are a native speaker, aren't you?

TO God and Goddess, (are you the same person?)
Thanks for your comment. Did you hear both clips or only the second one?

Your recording sounds well to me. I agree that "tradition" sounds different, but the rest is great.


B Regards

Lynda,

No, to the bewilderment of femi-nazis everywhere God (me) is indeed a man. Goddesses don't exist. I listened to both but the first clip had to much background noise.

God.

Please let me know what my problem is. Any honest comment is welcome.

The only problem I can point out is that you have a tendency to place extra syllables in words. For example:

"Most women find it uncomfortable" --you tend to say "Most-uh women..."

again

"...you will avoid unhappiness caused by family separation" --you say "...caused-uh by..."

One other thing, watch you pronunciation of initial "l-"s as in "level". You pronounce it almost like "nevel"

These charateristics are very Asian. Are you a native speaker of an Asian language?
