Pronunciation


Communication, an action that we use it everyday. Pronunciation is very significant while we are speaking. We must pronounce words clearly and make sure people will not misunderstand them.


I watched a short film while I was in Human Communication class on Saturday. That short film was about differences between two cultures. An Italian pronounced "in fact" as "in f*ck" and "piece" as "piss", he also misunderstood what people told him. People did not understand what was he trying to express, so they scolded him as son of a b*tch and he misunderstood as son of a beach. From this short film, I can know that pronunciation is very important for us. Also, we must pronounce some words differently when we are in different countries.


To sum up, we have to pronounce some words very carefully. For examples, sheet, beach, and piece. Therefore, people will not misunderstand what we are trying to say.
