You put ideas into my head, I can put forward myself for the starring role of some pirate instead of John Deep :)
Started listening, it would be easier if you wrote out the text. Otherwise it will take me a number of passes.

You certainly sound like you have had "a few" (at the end)
No extra points for clear diction tonight. :)

This may take a while. Don't wait.
Of course :) I'm already sleeping , it's the wee hours here :) Don't bother your head about my muumbling :)
savegerhino,
You, you, you sexy beast, you!.
Please note: attempt, tongue, hiccoughs, woodrow? warped -
Your accent in places is almost that of a native.
If only I was 5 years younger...
Today I see you in a torn T-shirt (was once blue, but no longer) and a pair of track bottoms. (Bet I'm far out this time).
terri, for shame you'll keep this poor man from getting any sleep at all. :)
Since terri has stroked your ego enough for both of us, I'll just stick to business:

What I thought was better (much better in fact)
"er" sounds followed by "l" were very good. girl, swirl, twirl, squirrel was damn near perfect. thwart was excellent too. Oh yeah, entrepreneurial was downright masterful. Not so good at praise, so let get back to the stuff that still needs work.

stuff I picked up:

"war" phonogram not consistently applied. Think w + or : warble, warped, warden and wardrobe?(near the end?) were the most problematic. I imagine that the "or" sound should be easier to pronounce than some of the other r-controlled vowels, but you seem to have some trouble with it.(blame Chivas)

possible/possibility= needs shorter o sound
mother=still sounded more like mudder
better=sounded like bedder
birds = d needs to be more distint (blaming Chivas)
medley = sounded sorta like madley
cookie= wrong "oo" sound, think "foot" not BOOT

couldn't figure out: "run the ? with her"
chortle: ch +or + tle, I heard ch+er+tle

also some "tle" endings were starting to approach "dle" near the end. (blame Chivas)

I guess when I get around to posting my Polish text I will have to have a couple of shots of vodka. :)
Didn’t want to post before the 11 o’clock watershed.:)
Siunia was right, I won’t be able to focus on my learning now.:) You really switched me on :):))
Terri, I just imagine us meeting in my dream :
You’re my private tutor and I ‘m your student. We have a lesson on hot, sultry summer day somewhere in a thatched cottage near the seashore on the far-flung corner of the world. We’re alone because it’s supposed to be a very private lesson.:) Near the house is growing a birch and and a light refreshing see brezze is rustling its leaves drowning out the rippling waves. A charming sight of jagged and trailing clouds is seen through the thatched roof. It’s very muggy.You’re in short black rah-rah skirt( which is conspicuously short as for a teacher which fact I pick up when you come in) and short-sleeved white blouse. We start our lesson with a quick warm up, talking about english in general but it’s so unbearably hot that you let your hair down and undo one button of your blouse and I notice it “thirstily” :):),we’re talking and talking and talking english …we’re still talking english…… then we’re talking french , then we get on to inversions( grammar of course :) then we’re talking english again … and we switch to french again.. ;);)I’d better stop at this point. :):)
I
Btw , you don’t have to be 5 years younger. It’s even better, I’m sure you know what I mean. Experience is part and parcel of the basic , let alone advanced ram-bam-jigle-jigle-bouncy-bouncy in-and out, since we’re talking teaching english here:))) . For those in the know :):)
And this time you were not far out again dear, with the only difference is that the T-shirt was white.:)

Thanks Siunia, I really appreciate your review.
You’re quite right on “ wardrobe” and all the other words which fact is also a sort of consolation for me . If you, as a native,were “able” to understand my murmur , it means it’s not may be so bad in general and I’m on the right track.
It was to be “to rendezvous with ” btw, but I botched it apparently.
I ‘ll put all the said sounds through fastidious and meticulous dissection and try to imrove them.
Thanks again gals. :)
Your welcome.
It appears my "help" was much less inspirational than terri's. Perhaps "less is more" is the way to go, going forward
Your help is of great value to me belive me. Well, Terri's "help" affected my ........ fantasy.I'm still only a male, you know :)

At this very second when writing this ,I'm doing the "twirls" with my tongue around all these words that sounded off ( wardrobe, warble,trustworthy etc.) and listhening to the the radio in the background.
Btw, there's another combination of sounds which I find it very hard to get my tongue around , namely , I can't smoothly and quickly join the "s" with "th" as in prosthesis. Not that I can't pronounce it all, I can do it seemingly perfect but slowly.But when I speed up I start to stumble on "pros..thesis".
*believe
Running our feeling high awhile ,love becomes transiently evanescant, love becomes fleetly ephermal, and as time goes by, its residuum is vitiated, turning into raspings and debris of the feeling of attachment in chorus butresssing our spiritual rampart when we start our solitary ploughing along these black furrows of the dark recesses of the tunnel.

Is it comprehenssible ? I mean , does it make sense ?
prosthesis

very rare combination of letters/sounds.
On the bright side, you won't encounter the combination very often.
On the other hand, once you do master it, you won't be able to transfer it to another group of words (word leverage)

these are somewhat similar:
anesthesia (I stumble over this myself...the slide from short "es" + to long "th+E" is a tough combination)

My advice, stay out of hospitals (prosthesis, anesthesia)

somewhat related sounds:
extremist
prostrate
prostate
Indeed , you're right , it's a very rare combination of sounds that mightn't come much in handy in your day to day life.( not in my case unfortunately:)
I'd better focus on more "down to earth" sounds.:)
Hey Savagerhino,

would you mind uploading your file again?
Now it says it could only be downloaded 10 times and that the limit is reached.
I would appreciate it. Hadn't heard the audio, there is no use going over phonetic hints. Thank you in advance.
