Hi Mochad - your accent is flawless - you are extremely easy to understand. Just a few points - you said "the voice of the waves", which sounds quite strange to me. You also mispronounced horizon - it should be with a long i sound. Your reasons were good until you got to the horizon and then stumbled a little before figuring out what to say - "broadens my spectrum" does not really make much sense. But overall, a great job!

Thank you again Luschen.

Horizan! I thought I was pronouncing it correctly because my teachers pronounced it like that!! I figured out some other words with a stress on the "i" that I pronounced wrong like "simultaneously"! I used to say it like "semultaneously"!!!!
