Replace &#8220;for&#8221; with &#8220;4&#8221;. Replace &#8220;two&#8221; or &#8220;to&#8221; or &#8220;too&#8221; with &#8220;2&#8221;. <\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"\" data-block=\"true\" data-editor=\"dsp6l\" data-offset-key=\"6t7ng-0-0\">\n<div class=\"_1mf _1mj\" data-offset-key=\"6t7ng-0-0\"><span data-offset-key=\"6t7ng-0-0\">\u00a0<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"\" data-block=\"true\" data-editor=\"dsp6l\" data-offset-key=\"3utms-0-0\">\n<div class=\"_1mf _1mj\" data-offset-key=\"3utms-0-0\"><span data-offset-key=\"3utms-0-0\">Also look for those words that are not necessarily in your vocabulary. If the word is unfamiliar to you, go to YouTube and find that word in a video online. Usually if I do not know the proper pronunciation of a company name or product, I do just that. Always try and find a legit posting from the company itself.<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"\" data-block=\"true\" data-editor=\"dsp6l\" data-offset-key=\"em82r-0-0\">\n<div class=\"_1mf _1mj\" data-offset-key=\"em82r-0-0\"><span data-offset-key=\"em82r-0-0\">\u00a0<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"\" data-block=\"true\" data-editor=\"dsp6l\" data-offset-key=\"d3fdr-0-0\">\n<div class=\"_1mf _1mj\" data-offset-key=\"d3fdr-0-0\"><span data-offset-key=\"d3fdr-0-0\">If, as an example, you aren&#8217;t sure how to pronounce &#8220;Husqvarna Motorcycles&#8221;, go to YouTube and find it said properly. Once you do, then replace the actual word you&#8217;re having a problem with in your script, with your understanding of the word. Husqvarna = HUSK-varna. When your eyes see it, it will have a better chance of pronouncing it properly with confidence, than stumbling over it in the actual read.<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"\" data-block=\"true\" data-editor=\"dsp6l\" data-offset-key=\"cjd53-0-0\">\n<div class=\"_1mf _1mj\" data-offset-key=\"cjd53-0-0\"><span data-offset-key=\"cjd53-0-0\">\u00a0<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"\" data-block=\"true\" data-editor=\"dsp6l\" data-offset-key=\"2rra-0-0\">\n<div class=\"_1mf _1mj\" data-offset-key=\"2rra-0-0\"><span data-offset-key=\"2rra-0-0\">What words do YOU have problems with that eventually make you SCREAM!?<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>One of the first things I do before I read a script is to audit all the verbiage.
