Would you advise an American learning your language to get really good with the pronunciation and try his best to sound like a native, or to embrace his own American accent?
Is an American accent seen as nice or attractive, or is the fact that someone is putting in the effort to speak your language their best more appreciated?
american accent ? you mean like, relaxing your mouth to speak? it sounds kinda wierd with other languages but it can be understood
i think pronunciation is not that important but if you want be easier to understand get rid of your native accent

So Americans speaking Spanish just sound really relaxed?
Perfect pronunciation is more impressive obviously. An american accent might be cute I guess, but it sounds pretty dumb.
he is NOT a native speaker

We will secretly talk shit about you unless you speak proper German, also whereas you'd get a "wow you speak x so well" in other countries here you will get a "not bad" instead
that being said learn proper grammar first, I can stand accents, but when it's accents mixed with shit grammar it just sounds like gibberish
Thick accent is the sign of a lazy person
English is known worldwide
you might get words of encouragement or surprise from knowing a few words from other languages, but you dont know shit compared to what we know about english

m8 I have been to spain please don't pretend that your country is english proficient even among young people
American accent? I would suggest to get the pronounciation good because the tendency of Americans to put th sounds in our clear T sound, "A"pple A in our "A"lpha A sounds, confusion between é and e sounds, not rolling R and gurgling R sounds and tendency to hard sound the K, although the real K sound is much lighter, as in "c"lock C.

i meant in the internet, sorry
its true, most people aren't that good with it
the educational system switched from french to english as the main external language to study very late in the 20 century

Not as dumb as american accent in Swedish
>>61343554
Perfect pronunciation is seen as attractive

>it sounds a bit like you are not trying to pronounce the consonants
Is that just due to fact that Americans tend to neglect the final consonant of a word? I.e., pronouncing "bow" and "boat" the same.
