Pronunciation

Pronunciation, stress, rhythm, and intonation are influenced by the first language but only sometimes interfere with ease of understanding.

What examiners listen for

Clarity of vowels and consonants under radio-quality audio
Word stress on multi-syllable aviation terms (e.g., 'precipitation', 'meteorological')
Sentence intonation distinguishing statement vs question
Resistance to first-language interference under stress
