At first we should to find out what is the accent?

Accent has three main components:
🔹intonation you speak with
🔹 word connections
🔹 pronunciation

And now we know that sometimes word stress can show to the opponent more than the actual words you use.
I think that movements can also help a lot😅

❗If you speak fairly quickly and with strong intonation, you'll be understood more easily.
For example, we have a recording of this Vietnamese student's voice - her pronunciation is clearly when she speaks faster.

❗ There’s no bad accent, only nonstandard accent. Every accent is good.
There’s nothing bad with exaggerating the intonation with which you speak, and one day native speakers won’t even notice that you’re putting on accent.

❗It's necessary to practice and practice, and only then you'll succeed🤗
