Highways - Up, Down, Over, Under

Instructions: Please recite the following paragraph. Press the 'add audio submission' button to record and submit this exercise.

A highway is a main road people use to travel between different public places. Highways connect cities, towns, and villages. Sometimes, drivers pay money to use the highway, and sometimes highways are free. Highways can go over water, across bridges, and through tunnels. Highways can also go up, down, or under mountains. Some highways have homes or businesses on them. Other highways don't have any buildings on them.

    Very well read in general as usual, Anna. I will leave another audio for you. The words that I would suggest practicing a little more include "public", "villages", "through" and "mountains". But nice work overall as usual. Chao.

    You are doing very well Ana! You're pronunciation is coming along beautifully. "Villages" was the only real minor mistake, and the other comments cover the rest. You are speaking with clarity and confidence so just keep improving!

    *public (huh? -- didn't hear it lol) *connect (the 'o' sound, stronger pronunciation of the 't') *through (stronger pronunciation at the end) ^_^
