@stux A roundabout was recently (a yr or 2 ago)installed in Portland ME, not far from where I live and on a route I travel often. IT’S SO MUCH BETTER. Safer for all (cars, bikes, peds); faster throughput; more attractive. What was previously 5 streets coming together in chaos with large expanses of asphalt and confusing traffic signals is now almost serene and park like.To me the key is it’s small size. This helps everyone slow down and know where to go.

@stux ok. Part of whats happening: they are using ‘like’ to fill space when they don’t know exactly what to say and partly to keep a rhythm to their speech.Lots of language and cultures do this.One helpful way to improve an accent, is to listen to the sound speakers make when pausing. Americans generally say ‘uh.’ French say ‘eh’ or like how ‘eu’ is pronounced. These sounds help show the posture of the mouth, tongue, throat, etc. of native speakers. Cool huh?
