“I didn't really like my Sydney accent - nobody likes the sound of their own voice - and when I was a little younger tried to change my accent gradually.

“If you happen to find it hard to have sustained conversations, try keeping your voice up at the end of the sentence. There is a charming graciousness in doing so, for it seems to say that you do not think your remarks are the last words to be said on the subject. It prevents you from seeming opinionated.

The subject is still open!” PeopleIfsThinkingMenTryingSaidStillsIdeasEndsHardSeemsHappensLastsSoundVoiceSubjectsConversationSentencesLikesDislikeCharmingLast WordsRemarksSeemingOpinionatedGraciousness Author:Margery Wilson
