Loudness, Pitch and Length are the trifecta of engaging speech. Mastering each of these suprasegmental aspects of English communication presents a speaker with the capability to communicate nuance and command attention. Without it, you may be understood in content but the delivery may be lackluster, monotonous and ultimately fall on deaf ears.

These aspects of English communication are not consistently discussed in language learning schools to the degree that I think is necessary as compared with grammar and it can communicate (even unconsciously) lack of confidence.  

About the Show: AccentOutLoud is your weekly source for English  communication, insights, experimentation, and inspiration. Every  Thursday (and sometimes more) I'll share my personal take on English  communication, tips of English communication and what I think is  important in clear communication. If you have an interest in improving  your English communication, learning a speech-language pathologist's  perspective on the field, or just want a uniquely interesting podcast,  you're sure to find something useful in each episode. It's my hope that  you'll become a fan and gain a better appreciation and understanding of  what is involved in your accent as a result!
