So, there are like 2 years I don't speak English, and I'm afraid it has deteriorated significantly. I did record myself reading this very sentence (England's entry in Wikipedia), and I'd love to have you guys hearing it and rating it as honest as you can be.
"England [SUP]i[/SUP]/ˈɪŋɡlənd/ is a country that is part of the United Kingdom.[SUP][2][/SUP][SUP][3][/SUP][SUP][4][/SUP] It shares land borders with Scotland to the north and Wales to the west. The Irish Sea lies northwest of England and the Celtic Sea lies to the southwest. England is separated from continental Europe by the North Sea to the east and the English Channel to the south. The country covers much of the central and southern part of the island of Great Britain, which lies in the North Atlantic; and includes over 100 smaller islands such as the Isles of Scilly, and the Isle of Wight."
