You Have An Accent Too

Of course, you have an accent You speak funny too. What's important Is to be understood. Good vocabulary Is essential too. Speak loud and clearly To be understood. You have an accent Too. Be open, polite, pleasant and patient Keep on talking and chatting to each other Miscommunication causes miscomprehension Learn novel words and maintain flawless diction Say something nice. Start a conversation With a neighbor. Smile, say hello to a stranger Be courteous to another pedestrian or a driver Wave to an elderly person, blow a sweet kiss To a spouse and spread kindness wishes for peace.
