Slow Down Your Speaking Speed

放慢你的说话速度

You might be an eloquent speaker when it comes to your mother tongue, but expecting the same standards from yourself when speaking in a foreign language may not be very realistic.

谈到母语时，你可能是一个雄辩的演说家，但用外语讲话时，期望自己达到同样的标准可能不太现实。

Especially, if you’re at the early stages of learning. Learners are often told not to worry about the mistakes they’re making, however, it is easy to understand why you would like to make a good impression on your audience.

特别是，如果你处于学习的早期阶段。学习者经常被告知不要担心他们犯的错误。然而，你很容易理解为什么你想给听众留下好印象。

To overcome this difficulty, you may try slowing down your speaking speed.

为了克服这个困难，你可以试着放慢语速。

Nobody will hold it against you if you speak more slowly and clearly. Great speakers do the same to get their message across. Selecting your words carefully may also be seen as a sign of respect towards your audience. It shows that you want to give them the best possible answer.

如果你说得慢一点，没有人会反对你的。伟大的演说家也会这样做以传达他们的信息。谨慎发言也可以被看作是对听众的尊敬。这表明你想给他们最好的答案。
