Wondering how to completely change how you speak to sound more smooth and fluent? Before you think about what to do with your face, your mouth, or tongue, or breath, think about which sounds you're speech is emphasizing. Is it consonant sounds or vowel sounds? By shifting the focus to heavier vowels and weaker consonants, the end result may be speech that sounds much smoother than how you originally spoke. Let's explore!
