    Here I am reading the lyrics of one of my favorite songs "Aneva sto trapezi mou"
    I am curious, what languages or accents does it sound like when I speak Greek?

    I am curious, which accent or dialect is my Greek pronunciation like? Where would you place me in Greece or in the Greek diaspora?

    Users of all ethnicities may respond. I just want your opinions on what I sound like in Greek.

    7/10.
    You are better than most foreigners learning Greek. You still can't maste the sound of ''γ'' and some other, but over all pretty good.
    You didn't mistake the accents in the words , either, so yeah, good !
