This reality can be scary; however, it can also be empowering as we can directly shape how others view us. One tool that can help give a perception of us that may be more favorable is by paying attention to the intonation we use; compare these examples with uptalk and rising intonation vs falling intonation.❗❗❗❗❗❗JOIN our channel to get access to our Pronunciation Group on Telegram, where you receive feedback and suggestions for YOUR pronunciation every day.
