Do you change your voice when you speak English? Here’s why (+ listen to my voice in Hebrew😲)

Join My English Mindset and transform the way you think and feel about your English: bit.ly/3WdR0r1
Have you ever tried to sound more natural in English by changing your pitch and voice, but the last thing you felt was natural OR neutral?
Or maybe you're not trying to change ANYTHING but the voice that comes out of you is simply not your own and sounds like somebody else's. How does that make you feel?
Changing your pitch to sound more ‘American’ is not a bad thing.
English has a different vocal placement than other languages, and the American voice probably has a different vocal quality than your voice in your first language (native tongue).
However, finding the proper vocal placement in English can only happen once you start feeling comfortable with your OWN voice, and once you UNDERSTAND how your voice works.
I have noticed that for many of my students their voice and pitch change in English and they simply don’t know why and how to change that.
And that makes them feel like they are a different person.
Not feeling like yourself will make you feel distant, detached and judgmental.

You see, your voice is a mere reflection of your internal state, and if you don’t feel comfortable in English, if you feel nervous, insecure, scared - it will come across in your voice.
In this video, I’m sharing with you why your voice changes, as well as a great vocal technique that will help your voice sound more expressive, neutral and clear when speaking English.
Also…. I will show you how my voice sounds in my native language, Hebrew, so you could hear the different vocal quality of both languages)

    Hadar, I also think that even when you find your pitch, the voice changes at least a bit... I can feel a intense vibration in my throat while I speak English and when I speak portuguese (my mother tongue), I don't feel that much. It feels like my voice comes from my chest and not from my throat.

    watermelonxxx, I think it’s more than that. Italian and Spanish have a similar phonological system because they are related languages but English doesn’t. In Spanish and Italian sounds are generated at the tip of the tongue, while in English it is generated on the back of the tongue. Try the R sound in each language and you’ll see the difference.

    our voices change in part because of different vowel shapes in different languages. like when i speak french, i find my voice is lower, because the vowels tend to need to resonate more in the lower/center of my mouth vs. english's (respectively) pretty bright vowels. our voices might also change because of where emphasis naturally falls with most words (in french, it's almost always the ends of words or sentences, for example) or in different parts of a sentence. just some food for thought!

    I also thought that the vowel nature in each language is a key in different voices of the same speaker. Though I don't know much about French or Hebrew. Hadar's voice in English sounded a bit higher because of the variety of English vowel sounds (esp. the pitches and the lengths) while Hebrew vowels sounded quite short to me (I can't analyze other characteristics of Hebrew vowel sounds---I'm just a lay person).

    Outstanding! 🙌🙌🙌 Love it! I was shocked to hear your voice in Hebrew!👀👀👀 I feel like I know you pretty well in English and suddenly you were a different person! You really do sound like someone else! It's definitely not just about the different intonation, shorter vowels, different sounds, it's about your voice placement. It's different. Your voice is beautiful in both languages though, clear, rich, and confident. My favorite videos of yours were "Understanding American English vowels - Masterclass" and "American intonation - what they don't teach you in school" until now but I am not sure anymore! I think this one wins! It's brilliant! ✨✨✨ I've listened to different explanations about the voice placement, but you have a magical way of explaining things, and things usually "click" when I hear your take on a certain topic. I'm pretty confident while speaking English, but I don't think I've found my optimal voice placement yet. My voice sounds pretty much the same in Serbian and English. I'm not saying that my "Serbian" voice doesn't sound good in English, it does, but I feel there's room for improvement. I think I can find a placement within my voice that will serve English a bit better. I will try the humming exercise and watch this video again and again. I'm interested to learn more from you about this topic. It would be cool if you could share more exercises for finding the "optimal voice". 💕💕💕

    When it comes to fluency - I got a lot better after practicing English tongue twisters. I know it's strange yet while practicing tongue twisters there's an incentive to speak in a faster pace and to connect or link sounds that require effort to place together. There's also the fact that one is going back to the basics in terms of differentiating sounds that otherwise might sound the same to a non-native English speaker. Some people think it's a waste of time - it worked for me.

    Thank you so much for this lovely video. I’m working SO hard on my English at the last two years, reading so many books (aloud) on a daily basis just to find my own English voice (indeed it’s different from the Hebrew one exactly like you mentioned). It’s a struggle indeed ! There are days where things works well, days where I feel comfortable reading using my own voice, though at the other hand, the opposite exists as well (like today for instance) where I literally struggle to utter a ‘reasonable’ English word. So frustrating sometimes. Thank you again for this video. Seeing you speaking English serves as a great example that it’s possible.

    Right on, Hadar! I'm a bilingual live announcer / MC / voice actor in Japanese and English, and before I started my career, my American voice-over teacher taught me about finding your optimal voice pitch using a similar technique to humming. In the Japanese language, on the other hand, what is considered a good pitch is way higher because a good voice is supposed to sound young, joyful, and clear. I think my body has adopted the optimal vocal range over the years and I speak both languages in the same way, but it takes time. So don't pretend to speak like someone you're not though having a role model is all good. Your voice is your asset.

I think that your accent change is because we are using not the same movements of tonge. And that's all but if you hear someone that's trying to imitate the american accent that would be pretty fake. so my conclusion a real accent is when you pronounce well words.
