Have you ever noticed that native American speakers seem to smile when they talk? American English has less lip rounding than many other languages. We really don’t use our lips much. So smile when you talk — it does wonders for reducing your accent!

Fun discovery - Have you ever noticed that American speakers don't move their mouths much when they talk? We use a lot of neutral vowel sounds and don't round our lips much. Non-native speakers often sound like they are over-pronouncing. So, use less mouth opening and mouth movements. It will likely reduce your accent! Try it with the phrase "fun discovery"!
