Description: Practice controlling the pace of your speech to sound more natural and clear. English is a largely stress-timed language; for example, "Birds eat worms" has 3-stressed syllables, but so does "The birds are eating some worms." Those two sentences take about the same amount of time to say. Practice a constant rhythm for the three stressed syllables in each sentence while saying every syllable in the sentence.
