Thank you, Enoon.

By sharpen, do you mean more emphasized and clearer?

Could you tell me the exact word(s) in which my Ts, Ks and Is weren't pronounced correctly?

Thanks again

"Tough" sounds like "duff", and "parts" sounds a little like "barts". Your long "I" needs more diphthong, too; "writer" sounds like "rider". But your accent is mild and does not at all interfere with com
