Accent Reduction for Hindi Speakers

5 English pronunciation tips for Hindi speakers who want to improve their English accent:

1) /w/ and /v/

  • W is made with the lips rounding (like a /u:/ sound)
  • V is made with the bottom lip touching the upper front teeth.
    • wine – vine
    • while – vile
    • wow – vow

2) R

  • R is made with the tip of the tongue curling back in the mouth. We don’t touch the top of our mouths when pronouncing a R sound in English.
  • We only pronounce a R sound when there is a vowel sound after it: Really, Tree, Carry
  • We don’t pronounce a R sound when there is no vowel sound after it: Car, Learn, Here

3) TH

  • This sound is made by putting the tip of the tongue by the back of the upper front teeth.
  • Keep the tip of the tongue relaxed.
  • Compare:
  • T – tin – thin
  • D – den – then
  • F – fin – thin
  • V – van – than

4) T + D

  • These sounds are made with the tongue touching just behind the upper front teeth.
  • They are not made by curling the tongue backwards and touching the back of the tongue to the top of the mouth!

5) The “o” Vowels

  • Notice the difference between the ‘o’ sound in:
  • Long Moving Vowel /əʊ/ – go, no, so
  • Short Steady Vowel /ɒ/- dog, not, hot
  • Long Steady Vowel /ɔː/- door, core, four
