When you listen to another person, the first thing your brain perceives and analyzes is not words, not the meaning of what was said, but intonation, timbre and speed of speech. If the voice is unpleasant, no matter what the interlocutor says, you will fence yourself off from him, treat what he said with doubt and distrust, perceive what was said with hostility. If the intonations are uncertain, then the interlocutor will not convince you that he is right, even if he has a hundred brilliant arguments on his side. We are designed in such a way that we read non-verbal information much faster than verbal, and non-verbal perception affects us even more than we can imagine. After all, from an evolutionary point of view, the ability of humans to communicate with words is a novelty. But the perception of intonation, timbre, facial expressions and gestures is deeply rooted in our nature. A child needs to be taught to speak, but he does not need to be taught to understand that mom and dad are angry. Therefore, if you want to become a good speaker, work on the sound of your voice, intonation, timbre and tempo of speech.
Why listeners don't believe you
You made a presentation: wrote a good text, picked up a bright visual component, put on best suit have been preparing for a long time. But the audience was not convinced because your voice sounded uncertain. Subconsciously, people perceive such non-verbal signals as uncertainty or insincerity:- Frequent coughing.
- Spasms of the voice.
- Nervous laughs.
- Facial expression and intonation that do not match what was said.
What to do to be believed: voice exercises
1. Read the quatrains "wisely." Choose any quatrains you like and read them aloud. First, say each line on one exhalation, and between the lines get air. Then read two lines as you exhale. Finally, say the quatrain on one breath. Perform the exercise in strict sequence: one line, two lines, four lines on one exhale. Read without tension, let the words flow freely and naturally, at a pace that is comfortable for you.Examples of quatrains for training:
I'm afraid to lose this bright miracle, that in your wet eyes froze in silence, I'm afraid of this night in which I won't touch your face to your rose of breath. (Federico Garcia Lorca) The moon does not know that she is the moon, And shines without knowing it. Sand is incomprehensible to sand. Subjects Not to realize that the form is given to them. (Jorge Luis Borges) Forget old love And not be sad about her? Forget old love And the friendship of the old days? (Robert Burns) 2. Read the verses aloud, raising each line by one and a half tones. Volume and intonation should rise up the lines, like stairs. It is better if the poem ends with an exclamatory sentence, but this is not necessary. To begin with, select short verses, then you can read long ones in this way, but calculate the initial volume in advance so that the speech does not break on the last line. Example of a poem: Somewhere in a cave, in the coastal region, I hide my grief from people. There I will think my evil fate, My evil, gloomy fate. Lying woman, your oaths The time has come to fly away like smoke. Laugh with your lover You are above the lost Above my dishonored happiness! (Robert Burns) 3. Choose a text for training, the content of which will give you the opportunity to demonstrate different expressive means: strength, pitch, timbre, tempo changes. I will not quote the passage, because it should be quite large: no less than a page of verse and no less than half a page of prose. First, read the text to yourself, analyze it: what the text is about, with what intonation it should be read. It is desirable that there are dialogues in the passage: read the author's text calmly, but for each character who speaks, come up with your own timbre, register and intonation. Practice the passage so that it sounds both expressive and stress-free. 4. Use exercises based on interjections. Professional announcers use such concepts as “sound support”, “sonority”, “freedom of the muscles of the lower jaw”. These are all components of the euphonious sound of speech, and they are all trained with the help of interjections. The fact is that interjections are pronounced naturally and naturally, this helps to find the main tone of your voice. Therefore, read short verses with interjections: For example: Oh! I'm free! That's how my voice goes! 5. Practice correct sound direction and pronunciation clarity. To do this, use tongue twisters for each consonant sound. Do not forget that tongue twisters should be read slowly, with exaggeratedly clear, deliberate articulation. Even if you can pronounce the tongue twister quickly, first read it much more slowly than your natural pace. Select tongue twisters in groups to produce similar sounds: “b” and “p”, “z” and “s”, “d” and “t”. In fluent speech, these sounds sound similar, and if you have poor diction, listeners will confuse them.To practice the sounds "b" and "p":
There would be a bull, but there would be meat. There is a priest on a shock, a cap on the priest, a shock under the priest, a priest under the cap.For a clear pronunciation of "v" and "f":
She was at Frol's - she lied to Frol about Lavr, she will go to Lavr - she lies to Lavr about Frol.For the correct pronunciation of "g", "k" and "x":
Hihonki yes khahonki - little dodish little ones. I'm not good for myself, I'm not good for people.For the sounds "l" and "l":
A small deed is better than any idleness. Klava put the onions on the shelf and treated them to Nikolka.For the sounds "h" and "u":
Scales at the pike, bristles at the pig. Not the one, comrades, a comrade who is a comrade with comrades, but the one, comrades, a comrade who is a comrade without comrades.Why is it time to work on diction
Diction is the correct pronunciation of sounds and words. More recently, articulation was called "actor's courtesy." But now you can be considered a good speaker, even if you have defects in diction: if popular actors and vocalists do not always correct their diction, then what can be expected from people whose work is not directly related to speech? But if you do not pronounce individual sounds, it is more difficult to understand you. This means that it will take more effort, imagination, experience to capture the attention of the audience and win them over. Therefore, I always recommend correcting pronunciation defects. Sometimes it is possible to correct diction only under the guidance of a speech therapist. Most defects have physiological or psychological causes. If you are physically unable to pronounce "l", "r" or another sound, only a speech therapist can help. But if in general you are able to produce a sound, only in a conversation you often swallow it or pronounce it incorrectly, special exercises for diction will help correct the situation:- Exercise for setting vowel sounds. Take a deep breath, hold your breath for a fraction of a second and as you exhale, pronounce consonant sounds, making a short pause after each: “a”, “and”, “o”, “u”, “s”, “e”. First articulate the sounds silently, then in a whisper, quietly, louder and louder. Also train with iotated sounds "e", "yo", "yu" and "ya".
- Exercise for setting consonant sounds. Consonants are worked out in syllables with vowels: “ba”, “bi”, “bo”, “bu”. The principle is the same: take a deep breath, after a short breath hold on the exhale, pronounce syllables, making small pauses between them. Gradually add the second and third consonants to the syllables: bom, bam, boom, and so on. Finally, write down and pronounce words with complex combinations of sounds according to the same principle. Complex combinations are, for example, three consonants in a row: takeoff, hose.
- An exercise to improve diction with complex combinations of consonants. There are several options for exercises with complex combinations of sounds. Besides the fact that they train diction, they develop a singing voice. You will object that you are not going to study vocals, but this is not about singing: the better your voice skills are, the better your performances sound. And the more interesting the audience to listen to you. Therefore, train, for example, with such combinations of sounds: long-aphid-A aphids-dli-A lill-A (Be careful, pull the second sound "l" in combination). li-lill-A gly-A length aphids zd (Pronounce it together, like a word, not a set of sounds). ZZDI-A zzhdr zhdrr zzhdrr zzhdri-A
- Read tongue twisters. Unlike exercises for setting the correct direction of sound, in order to improve diction, you need to pronounce tongue twisters in the same way as individual sounds: first silently, then in a whisper, quietly, louder, louder. Increase the pace gradually: first read the tongue twister exaggeratedly slowly, then slowly, at a natural pace, faster and faster. Practice tongue twisters for all consonant sounds.
How to relieve tension from the respiratory and peri-laryngeal muscles?
Let's go back to the non-verbal cues that make it difficult for listeners to believe you: coughing, breaking, too quiet or high-pitched voice, hesitant tone - this is often the result of excessive muscle tension. To improve diction and develop your oratory skills, use not only exercises, but also special gymnastics.- Exercise "Pull the rope." Legs shoulder width apart. Imagine that a rope is hanging above you: raise your hands, stand on your tiptoes, inhale, and on a long exhale, pull the invisible rope down. Do this with effort, bending your arms and squatting. There should be tension in the muscles of the neck and chest. Repeat 3 times silently, and then say “Ba-ba-baba” while relaxing.
- "The face is falling." Actors use this gymnastics. Imagine that your face is flowing: jaw, tongue, cheeks and lips flow down. The tongue rests on the lower lip. Run your hand over your face to feel how relaxed the lower jaw is. Then tilt your head and shake it so that your lips and cheeks vibrate. Do it silently at first, and when it gets good, say "Amba-ba-ba-ba" to check how fluent you sound.
Voice can convince listeners, gain trust or alienate. This is especially important in telephone conferences and telephone conversations, when the voice is your only tool.
The great ancient Greek orator Demosthenes had a weak voice, fuzzy diction, burr and lisp. He made speeches by rolling pebbles in his mouth and achieved great success. Today there are more safe way improve diction - speak with a cork in your teeth. This is the best exercise for diction, it is practiced by everyone who works on TV. In acting schools, the cork is even tied to a string and hung around the neck to practice at any time.
The wine cork should be clamped between the front teeth (2-3 mm beyond the line of the teeth), the mouth should be ajar, the teeth should be exposed. In this position, speak and read loudly for 5 to 10 minutes several times a day. The exercise develops the articulation apparatus and vocal cords (they bear part of the load, when the articulation apparatus cannot cope, they have to compensate for the fact that "the lips cannot").
Running with headphones in your ears is effective, repeating everything that he says after the speaker. When running, you are out of breath, this will create additional difficulties for the speech and respiratory apparatus. At the end of the workout, you will be able to enjoy clear diction, which will turn out by itself.
If you suffer from stuttering, take note of the proven method: rewrite several pages of book text every day. While writing, a person pronounces the text in his thoughts, and mentally it is impossible to stutter. Gradually, you will begin to speak out loud without hesitation.
Tongue twisters - not very pleasant, but perfectly improves diction. The results are already audible on the 3rd day and they remain for a long time if you continue to develop diction. An important condition: you need to speak them loudly.
There are two types of tongue twisters:
- for the brain - it is easy to pronounce, but the words are confused (Clara stole corals from Karl
- for the language - if it is difficult for you to speak hissing words (Varvara, who became emotional, felt the unsympathetic Vavila). 
Do not try to pronounce the tongue twister immediately quickly. First, master it at a slow pace, read syllable by syllable, then switch to an average pace, and only then pronounce the tongue twister with acceleration.
Try pronouncing the tongue twister with different intonations (surprised, indignant, interrogative, etc.) or hum it to the tune of the song.
Connect movement to the tongue twister: squat, jump, dance.
In addition to tongue twisters, write down and work out phrases and words that you are often asked again - in these words there is a combination of letters that is not good for you, you need to bring it to clarity.
Sleep in glasses for sleep - they help to relax all the muscles of the face, including the lips and jaw. This improves diction.
Development of the articulatory apparatus
Your audience cares about the sound of your voice and the clarity of your words. Voice training is easy if you do articulation exercises. It develops the tongue, lips, cheeks, palate, lower jaw and helps make your speech clear and easy to hear.
The development of the articulatory apparatus is facilitated by reading aloud, it helps to correctly place accents, make the necessary stresses and intonations.
For the pure formation of sounds, develop the tongue: “clean” the gums with the tongue, make “pricks” with the tongue on the cheeks, move along the palate, stretch the tongue, click it.
Warm-up for the jaw: take yourself with both hands on the lower jaw and open it several times, effortlessly, not abruptly, only with the help of your hands - this exercise helps to relieve tension from the submandibular muscles.
Warm-up for the cheeks: inflate the cheeks, “roll” the air inside the mouth, then release the tension by making a “whoa”.
To make speech clear and easy, develop your lips: stretch your lips with a “tube” and rotate in a circle in both directions, say “ooty - ooty”, stretch with a tube and grab the air with them, slap with relaxed lips “five-five-five” and collect them on "p-b-p-b", pull your lips over your teeth.
Say "ma", "mama" to yourself, and also "ha" on the half of the exhalation. At the same time, the palate should be raised, the position of the mouth as with the sound “O” - these exercises make the sound deeper and louder.
Setting up the speaker's voice
You need to train your voice regularly - this is main tool in public speaking to be used to advantage
Voice training includes exercises that need to be practiced every day, standing in front of a mirror.
For training lower diaphragmatic breathing (“belly”). Stand straight, feet shoulder-width apart, relax your shoulders and head. Wrap your arms around your shoulders, squeezing your chest, press your fingers tightly against your shoulder blades. Breathe in the belly, inhaling through the nose, exhaling through the mouth, the fingers should not move, the shoulders should not rise and the elbows should not move.
Stand straight, straighten your arms in front of your chest, turn your palms towards each other. Inhale deeply through the nose and sharply spread the arms to the sides, then slowly bring the arms together and exhale through the mouth with the sound “zzzzzz”. When the palms touch each other, let go of the breath.
To “warm up” the voice, you need to stand straight, relax, breathe with your stomach. Fold your palms like a mouthpiece, "show" your throat to the doctor, lower your larynx, inhale and say "aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa". Do it several times, increasing the volume, but without straining.
If the voice sounds tense and needs to be relaxed, open your mouth, relax your facial muscles, inhale and exhale, shake your jaw up and down 4-5 times. You can also make a creak, similar to the sound of an opening door, while the jaw is lowered, and the teeth should not be closed.
Use a tongue twister - say "lri-lre-lra-lro-lru-lry", at first slowly then speed up. It is important to articulate well, pronounce with different intonation, like a question and an answer. Then relax the muscles of the mouth - say “Truu” as you exhale.
To make the sound free and concentrated, you need to catch the low position of the larynx. To do this, you need to lower your jaw to your chest, open your mouth wide, lower the root of your tongue down, as if you are showing your throat to a doctor, lower tension and yawn 2-3 times.
You can't ignore your speech. In the vast majority of cases, people starting to deal with this issue are horrified by the way she talks.
I mean specifically the pronunciation. After all, we all grow up in a certain language group, where a specific local dialect or frank surzhik prevails.
For this reason, we have prepared a small material on the topic diction development. We were inspired to do this by indignation, caused by such words of some TV presenters as: “pasatrel” instead of “looked”, “skaal” instead of “said”, etc.
But at all times, clear diction and correct speech were considered a sign of education and development of a person.
That is why you cannot be or count on if such simple things as diction are at an indecently low level.
By the way, we already talked about. Pay attention to them.
Let's take one last step. You must have heard the saying: “They meet by clothes, but see off by mind”. This is largely a fair observation. The same goes for diction.
When you first meet a stranger, he first of all pays attention to your appearance and manner of speaking.
If your words are chaotic, and their sound resembles a tape chewed in a tape recorder, then it is unlikely that a person will be imbued with sympathy or trust after the first communication.
Therefore, the importance of good diction for any person is difficult to overestimate.
How to improve diction
Before moving on to specific advice, you need to find out the meaning of the term itself.
Diction(from Latin dictio - pronunciation) - a clear pronunciation of sounds in accordance with the phonetic norms of the language.
Today, in many major cities, there are various organizations offering courses to improve diction and voice production.
Perhaps for some this is the only way to work on yourself. However, we are sure that with a little effort of will, you can even fix pronunciation problems at home.
The main thing here is to have perseverance, a desire to change, and regular practice. Everything else is a matter of time.
Therefore, we offer you the most effective methods diction improvement. Check them out and get started now.
Diction exercises
A classic example of working on oneself is the ancient Greek orator Demosthenes. This eminent Greek had a very bad pronunciation and was extremely ashamed of it.
It must be said that this was the time when oratory, rhetoric and eloquence were valued almost as the most highest values personality.
To overcome himself and achieve success, Demosthenes put small stones in his mouth and tried to recite famous poets as clearly as possible.
Then he ran up the steep slope of the mountain, and when his breath was not enough, he again read poetry, making incredible efforts on himself.
His last exercise was to shout over the surf. As the waves hit the shore, he spoke with all his might to an imaginary audience, continuing to recite poems to them.
These amusing and seemingly silly pursuits led to Demosthenes becoming one of the most prominent and famous orators in the world. To date, not a single book on the art of eloquence is complete without mentioning it.
So no matter how bad your speech today is, you can fix it, so go for it!
Now let's move on to the exercises themselves.
Training of the articulatory apparatus
- "Fence" - close and smile broadly. Hold this position for ten seconds and return to the starting position. Make sure that the upper and lower row of teeth are clearly visible. Repeat the exercise several times.
- "Tubule" - without opening your teeth, pull your lips forward. At the same time, you can pull the sound “oooo” for ten seconds. Repeat the exercise.
- "Needle" - open your mouth and stretch your sharp tongue as far as possible. Hold this position for five seconds. Then relax. Repeat several times.
- “Damn” - show your reflection your tongue by placing it on your lower lip and making it as wide as possible. Repeat.
- "Licking lips" - relax the lower jaw and try to keep it in one position. Lick your upper lip, stretching out your tongue as much as possible. Repeat the same action with the lower lip.
- "Swing" - touch the tongue alternately with the upper and lower lips. Do the exercise at a slow pace and try not to move your chin.
- "Hamster" - close your lips and press the inside of your tongue on your cheek for five seconds. Repeat the manipulation with the other cheek.
Breathing training
Therefore, pay at least a little attention to this, especially since there is nothing complicated here. There are hundreds of breathing exercises, which one to choose is up to you.
- Stand straight, feet shoulder-width apart. Take a deep breath, and then, slowly exhaling the air, calmly read any quatrain. Repeat several times.
- Learn to breathe with your belly. We will not go into the intricacies of the physiological structure of the diaphragm, but simply explain: while inhaling, imagine that the air enters the stomach, and not the lungs. This is a very important, and perhaps the main point in breathing exercises.
- If you walk a lot, try reciting poems while walking so that your breathing does not interfere with you. The body itself will prompt the necessary rhythm.
- This exercise can be done in any position of the body. Take a deep breath, and then, slowly exhaling the air, draw the sound "mmmm". Alternate it with the sounds "m-m-m-e-e-e", "m-m-m-o-o-o", "m-m-m-u-u-u", "m-m -m-a-a-a", "m-m-m-s-s-s", "m-m-m-i-i-i".
It is important to understand here that when doing exercises for diction, breathing plays not some kind of mystical role, but quite a physiological one. Therefore, the most important thing is that your realize the importance of breathing exercises.
Watching your breath for at least a few minutes a day, you will be surprised at the results.
Patter for the development of diction
The tongue twisters that are used to develop diction are very different. You can find a lot of them on the Internet. In principle, it does not play a big role which tongue twisters you use.
The main thing is that they train the pronunciation of all the letters of the alphabet.
Below we give classic tongue twisters that activate all the muscles of the speech apparatus of a Russian-speaking person.
Keep in mind that all pictures are optimized for social networks, so you can safely save them to your wall.
Why is it necessary to develop the diction of a child? He is still small, he will grow up, and his speech will improve on its own. Many parents think so, not attaching importance even to such bright defects in the baby's speech as lisping, fuzzy pronunciation. Experts insist that diction must be worked hard and as early as possible so that the child's speech does not turn into a "speech mess" over time. Otherwise, the speech therapist will have to work hard to make the speech of a preschool child literate, intelligible and beautiful.
Why is it so important to develop diction in children
Recall that the concept of "diction" includes a clear pronunciation of words and sounds. Psychologists note that the correct pronunciation of words and sounds affects the overall development of the child, contributes to the faster formation of mental operations. Fuzzy speech negatively affects the student's school success, the quality of communication with classmates and friends. In the future, the literacy of writing depends on the correctness of oral speech. primary school. You need to be aware that correctly delivered, clear and competent speech is an element of a child’s success and an indicator of his attractiveness in the eyes of other children.
It is important for parents to notice a problem in diction at the initial stages of speech development, at about 2-3 years old, when speech begins to develop very actively. There are many factors that influence the acquisition of the ability to speak clearly. Experts note, first of all, those that affect the development of diction. The causes of poor diction in children can be:
- Violation of the pronunciation of sounds;
- Absence of some sounds in speech;
- Replacing deaf sounds with voiced ones;
- Reduction of long and compound words;
- Rearrangement of syllables;
- Sound softening;
- Replacing sounds with similar ones.
In some cases, poor diction is associated with the development of hyperactivity, attention volatility, and poor self-control. With the progress of pedagogical science and medicine, many problems associated with diction are quite easily fixable. In most cases, regular articulation exercises are sufficient to improve diction.
Effective diction exercises
The main difficulty in pronouncing words is the need to quickly change the position of the tongue in the mouth. To master this skill, it is necessary to strengthen his muscles and conduct constant training.

Classes with a child on the development of diction at home
The very best and effective way to learn the skills to speak clearly intelligibly is a game. The development of diction for all age groups will go faster in game exercises and interesting tasks. In addition to the development of the articulatory apparatus, such activities have a beneficial effect on strengthening the relationship between parents and the child, and also simply bring him joy and pleasure from communicating with parents.
Games that develop the child's speech:
"Repeater" - training consists in repeating individual sounds, syllables by the child. Often the lesson is carried out in the form of a game. Mom or dad read a poem, the kid repeats the final syllables of each line.
"Farm"
- this game resembles the previous one, but the sounds must be pronounced as clearly as possible. Parents read a poem about the inhabitants of the farm, and the child pronounces the sounds made by animals.
"Guess Who" - you should play it after you have mastered the previous 2. Pictures of animals (you can buy in a store or make it yourself) are placed in an opaque bag. The child draws a card and says the sound that corresponds to the animal in the picture. More fun to play in the company.
"Pantomime" - This is an alternative version of articulatory gymnastics. The child is offered only with the help of the face to show a variety of emotions. In this way, a good training of the muscles of the speech apparatus is carried out.
"Policeman" - whistles are required for the game. Children at the command "violator" or "criminal" begin to blow the whistle. When inhaling, the stomach swells, when exhaling, it contracts. The shoulders remain in place during this process.
"Roaring Lion" - the game is aimed at practicing the pronunciation of a certain sound. Children are offered a set of words, quatrains, tongue twisters, excerpts of a prose text (can be submitted as stages of the competition), where a certain sound is most often found. The children read the given words aloud and practice the sound.
Tongue Twisters
In addition to games, tongue twisters are great for improving diction. Everyone knows them since childhood, but only a few have the opportunity to boast of the ability to pronounce them correctly, clearly and quickly. With regular training, tongue twisters effectively eliminate speech defects, significantly improve the quality of diction.
A tongue twister is a special text that is a combination of words with hard-to-pronounce sounds. They are aimed at forming the correct pronunciation of consonants.
- At the first stage, it is necessary to choose no more than three tongue twisters in order to train the pronunciation of a certain sound;
- The text is pronounced slowly and as clearly as possible;
- It is advisable to practice in front of a mirror;
- It is necessary to pronounce the exercise emotionally and in a singsong voice.
