Hello, my name is David, I'm from the UK and I'm 18 years old.
I've been learning Chinese for a few years now, and I am going to attend university in Dalian next
week.
I would like people to criticise my accent - what's good and bad about it, and how I could improve.
I just read a silly story that I found - didn't want to read anything too serious.
Thanks !

semantic nuance -

Well done!

I notice 2 words that I think you can work more on them:

1. 突然一隻小猴子喊起來:不好了.... You sound to prounce it between the first and the
second tone. It should be the 3rd tone.

2. 月亮掉到井裡了. 大猴子一看也叫了起來:不好了!
月亮真地掉到井裡了...You prounce it as 'yao4', but it should be 'dao4'.

I believe you know their pronunciations but read them off the tone out of nervousness.
Good job! Keep going!!

Hope it helps!

hi ,ai_ya ,I have to say ,your accent sounds not bad at all,amazing
well,some tips for you
there some words should be pronunced more mellow and full,like
晚 来 捞上来 小 拉着 接 这
Generally speaking ,no obviosly mistake in the tone of your pronunciation except 接jie1,not jie4
I must admit that your Chinese sounds much better than my English.
