aforementioned pronunciation

sounding like "uh-fore-men-tioned" with emphasis on the "fore" part; think of it as "before-mentioned" to help with pronunciation. BUT my wife and others say AFF-fore-mentioned. How do ya'll say it?

How to get an American accent?

Any advice on how to get rid of your foreign accent and start to sound like a native speaker, without actually living in the specific area? As for majority of us, I have pretty thick foreign accent when speaking English. My vocabulary and understanding of English are solid, but my accent is still very noticeable. The ā€œthā€ sound is especially difficult for me, it feels like the worst part of my pronunciation! I know most people donā€™t care about foreign accents but I want to master the language like itā€™s my first language

Trots mean diarrhea?

In a series, one character said,ā€™ She has trots,ā€™ which was translated as ā€˜She has diarrhoea.ā€™ Is this the correct usage?

Why isn't there an article in this sentence? : "Mine computer is broken."

Trying to get a solid grasp on English grammar from the rock bottom up, so I'm questioning even the obvious things. Thanks!

Little question regarding an article. Is it correct to call it incident when it was an ā€œattackā€? Iā€™m not a native speaker but I donā€™t know if in English you call this ā€œincidentā€. In Italian ā€œincidentā€ is something happened with no intention

Is this news script grammatically correct?

Is this news script grammatically correct?

Itā€™s todayā€™s first page of the Washington Post, but I canā€™t see the verb in that sentence. Shoudnā€™t the ā€œclaimingā€ has to be ā€œclaimedā€?

ā€œPlease find attached your confirmation of enrolment letter.ā€ Why is ā€œattachedā€ put before ā€œyourā€? Would ā€œ..your attached ā€¦ā€ mean something else? Thanks.
