Great idea. Everything sounds nicer in English.

Correct me if I'm wrong, please.
Some people say that I can speak English with a Russian accent. The only problem is, I can do it ónly when I'm chattering.
Oh, and I'm working on an English play this year ^^ Protagonist :'D

Correct me too please ^^
People say that I have an Irish accent :'D probably becauce I've watched too many movies with Irish hotties in it..

Anyway; this is a great idea to improve your English (:

I don't know which accent I have when I speak English. Hmpf, I really want to know that.

Well, I do not do it all the time. I can do it, but when I force myself it sounds nothing like it.
I actually do not know how I sound when I normally speak English.

*because And I think it must be 'them' or another plural at the end of your sentence.
Eh, I do not know why I speak so well with a Russian accent.

Do some of you have a trick or a thingie for the "TH" in thing or something or think or death? Because I cannot speak it well out loud (and I have to for this English play).

I've no idea of the future, but I can see the past quite well. And the present, if the weather's clear.

You can try saying the "f", but softening it down greatly.

Just put your tongue against the bottom of your front teeth and hold it there, and say "s". That should be the sound you want.

I already use the first tip, but I like to improve it.
Uh, I tried it and it works, but I have to practise it. But thanks!

No problem ^^.
I just sat here, trying to figure out how I came to the pronunciation, probably looking like a retarded snake though (':

But tone it down a bit, and with some practice indeed you'll be fine ^^
