First of all, you need to learn the most frequently used words in English, common structures and sentence patterns, common expressions, common phrasal verbs, and idioms that are much used in daily life.

Next, you should learn daily conversations in English for speaking. Focus on every ESL conversation topic until you can speak English automatically and fluently on that topic before moving to the next one.

The following lessons cover 75 topics that you will face very often in your daily life. Each lesson is designed in form of ESL conversation questions and answers, followed by REAL English conversation audios, which will definitely benefit your English conversation practice.

Record someone else with your recording device or mobile app, then transcribe the audio with Dragon. Record things like lectures, presentations, or interviews and use the text in documents, reports, or reference notes.

Use your user profile:
You can transcribe the file with your own user profile. Speech data from the recording won't affect the speech data in your profile, as long as you choose Someone else in the Select the speaker field.

    Open your own profile to transcribe a recording of yourself, or of someone else for whom you don't have a transcription profile. Open a transcription profile to transcribe a recording of someone else, when you have a transcription profile for that person.

I use zoom for my dance classes and when I share the sound of my laptop for my students, they can barely listen to my voice indications at the same time, even if the volume of the shared sound is very low. What can I do to better this? For solution I put the audio on my tablett near from the computer, so the can hear my voice better, but then the sound of the music is bad..

I guide meditations where I need to speak over shared music, and Zoom recently seems to have changed so that even turning on Original Sound - even though better - no loner corrects it. There appears to be noise cancellation going on that reduces the voice level and garbles it, even using a good USB mic.

I want to make a GPT where instead of having the user experience be typing out and having text based conversations, I want to have the conversation be able to happen with the GPT responding via voice and the user can also respond by voice.

Is there a way I can turn the GPTs responses to voice and also have the user respond via their voice and have the GPT respond via voice audio? So in short, I want to make the experience feel more like a natural conversation with someone rather than typing everything out.

Hi. After reading the information in this thread I have a question. Can I organize and set up simultaneous voice translation during an online meeting? If it is possible how can I technically realize it?

I am working with audio of someone with tremors in their voice- I think they call it vocal paralysis or something. Are there software applications that break sound down into it's individual waveforms using FFT or something similar that would allow me to manipulate these tremors more than I could by automating volume changes?

There are some general spectral (fft) editors, of which Spear (free) is one of the most powerful (even more than Izotope RX or the Sony Editor), but these should not really be necessary, if it is just a volume modification that you want to do.

First, make sure that in Asterisk SIP Settings, External Address and Local Networks are correctly set. Usually, just pressing Detect Network Settings will set them properly. If anything changed, Submit, Apply Config and restart Asterisk.

If trunk audio fails, at the Asterisk command prompt, type
pjsip set logger on
or
sip set debug on
according to trunk type, make a failing call, past the Asterisk log for the call at pastebin.freepbx.org and post the link here.

Something still seems wrong with your Asterisk SIP Settings.
o=- 790455249 3 IN IP4 104.145.12.182
This is an address at Sangoma, the default on a new install.
Please go to Asterisk SIP Settings and confirm that External Address shows your Vultr server address. Confirm that you have restarted (not just reloaded) Asterisk after changing it.

Several times recently (including on fairly serious meetings, like Board meetings and job interviews) I've had others tell me that they couldn't hear me / my connection was bad. [ At that point, turning off video hasn't helped much if at all. ] As a work-around, I've had to dial in for audio (but that's a bit embarrassing during, say, a Board meeting). Sometimes I get a message from Teams telling me that my internet connection is poor (or words to that effect), but usually I hear complaints first from other participants, or I can see video problems myself.

When I have run speed tests on my connection, the downlink has never been less than 200Mb/sec, and it's usually closer to 250. Uplink has never been less than 30Mb/sec, and it's usually 50Mb/sec. I've checked right after meetings, including meetings with problems, and have started doing random tests during similar hours.

I have tried using my MacBook (a reasonably current model) and an iPad Pro (running nothing but Teams during the meeting), and the problem has occurred on both. All devices are running the current released operating systems. I have made a point of rebooting them before calls, but that hasn't made any difference. [ the router has also been rebooted several times recently, but not necessarily before every call ]

During calls, I disable all other devices in my house (it's just me here, so I know no one else is streaming or gaming on my connection, but of course I don't know what may be happening elsewhere in my neighbourhood, and contention may be possible -- but again, my speed tests suggest my service remains more than adequate).

I've so far had no similar problems with Zoom. In fact, before one important meeting, I got the organiser to do a test with me, but she choose to use Zoom (she thought we were testing my internet quality) and our test was fine -- but during the later Teams call, I had to drop off and rejoin by phone, which was extremely awkward.

This "should" work, and it does for most of the participants (others occasionally have issues, but I have by far the most). It's almost like Deutsche Telekom throttles my connection when I start to speak -- I'm not paranoid enough to believe that, but that's how it appears.

Because I am a regular attendee to these meetings, but am not part of the organisation that actually hosts the calls, they see it as "my" problem to solve. I could probably approach their administrator to ask for assistance, but if I do, I need to have a plan with a crisp set of requests of them.

I have the exact same issue. I have 200+MB down and 100MB+up on every ookly test. even during calls where MS teams is showing me a bandwidth issue and and the person on the other side is saying that they cannot understand or hear me.

This job set me up for my entire career. And, as one might expect of a 22 year-old graduate student who liked his major and was good at school, but also liked the college experience and wished to continue it for two more years, I had no idea this would be the case.

But teaching public speaking not only set me up in an extremely direct way in that watching more than 1,000 speeches over the course of two years trained me to be a skilled media and presentation trainer for clients of all stripes, but in other ways, too. Balancing teaching, grading, coaching students and holding office hours with the metric crapton of reading and writing graduate studies mandates teaches time management, project management, prioritization, and efficiency in ways few things can at that point in your life.

The average speaking rate changes dramatically for the purpose of your speech. According to the National Center for Voice and Speech, the average conversation rate for English speakers in the United States is about 150 wpm. However, for radio presenters or podcasters, the wpm is higher.

When you are speaking slowly, it can grab the attention of the audience and help them process every word, but an entire talk at a slow pace will bore your audience: while waiting for you to get to the point they will lose interest.

The long pauses and carefully spoken words give us time to absorb the information and plenty of time for the audience to applaud throughout. Even if you did not understand the words, the slow pace indicates that the message is important and should be taken seriously.

The metronome ticks at a certain rate depending on what you set it to. If you want to speak at 130 words per minute, set the metronome to this value and practice saying a word every tick of the metronome.

Online exercises let you practice your speech in a variety of scenarios. Practice presenting at a conference, delivering a sales pitch, answering interview questions, and more. With VirtualSpeech practice exercises, you can get feedback on your speaking rate after your speech and adjust it accordingly for your next speech.

Go through it silently to familiarize yourself with the flow of material and then read it aloud. Make a note of which passages need careful or slow reading and which can be taken at a faster rate. Re-read aloud until you feel you have the mix of speeds right.

Listen to speakers you admire. They could be radio presenters, commencement speeches, anybody accustomed to speaking in public. Note the different rates of speech they use over the course of their presentation and the effectiveness and experiment with them for yourself.

The terms assistive device or assistive technology can refer to any device that helps a person with hearing loss or a voice, speech, or language disorder to communicate. These terms often refer to devices that help a person to hear and understand what is being said more clearly or to express thoughts more easily. With the development of digital and wireless technologies, more and more devices are becoming available to help people with hearing, voice, speech, and language disorders communicate more meaningfully and participate more fully in their daily lives.
