What's your tip?לך דומיה תהילה

there's mine:

 

try not translate hebrew phrases. "On the head of the thief the hat is burning" doesn't work in english.

 

(even in hebrew it doesn't have a literal meaning  כאילו מוציא לשון).

Don't be afraidגמני

Why?גמני
You said a "literal" meaning which is true, there is no actual hat that is burning

from the chimney - your hat can probably be damaged.

A poem I wrote on Jerusalemזה רק אני
And its the first poem here

My Jerusalem Of Gold

Throughout the generations
Battles were fought
Creating foundations
That were not for naught
Tears have been shed
Blood has been spread
Alas stories have been told
The Jerusalem of gold

Maybe there's sorrow and widows
But there's pride and heroes
Maybe its ancient and old
But its the Jerusalem of gold

Sometimes with pain
Sometimes with gain
Sometimes with grief
Sometimes with relief
Sometimes it's dark and cold
But always its Jerusalem of gold

Abbu Mazen. Haha.א-לדהיד

I don't know if there's much to do about accents, so I think the best advice is to just go with it, and not think about your accent at all. If you start thinking, you'll be too aware of yourself, and that's the best fluency killer. 

 

I'd rater speak fluent English with an Israeli accent than broken English with a good one.

The Halacha Yomitלב אוהב

Question: When the Chazzan recites “Barechu Et Hashem Ha’Mevorach” and the congregation responds “Baruch Hashem Ha’Mevorach Le’Olam Va’ed,” must one rise and bow or is this unnecessary?

 

Answer: Regarding the obligation to rise while answering “Baruch Hashem Ha’Mevorach,” there are varying customs among the Sephardic and Ashkenazi communities, for Ashkenazim customarily stand during Barechu while the Sephardim customarily remain seated. There are some Ashkenazi communities who customarily rise even when responding to the Barechu recited by one receiving an Aliyah to the Torah and not only when it is recited by the Chazzan. On the other hand, Sephardim are not concerned with this at all and the greatest Sephardic luminaries have never observed this custom.

 

Regarding bowing while reciting “Baruch Hashem Ha’Mevorach,”this custom is indeed mentioned by several Rishonim including the Machzor Vitri, Orchot Chaim, and others. Hagaon Mishnah Berura quotes the Magen Giborim who has difficulty finding a viable source for this custom. The Mishnah Berura himself (in Be’ur Halacha, Chapter 113) brings a reference to this custom from a verse in Chronicles I (Chapter 29) which states: “David said to the entire congregation: ‘Bless Hashem, your G-d’; the entire congregation then blessed Hashem, G-d of their fathers, and they prostrated themselves and bowed to Hashem and to the king.” Various Acharonim quote other sources for this custom. Nevertheless, Hagaon Harav Yair Bachrach zt”l, author of Mekor Chaim, writes that any addition to the order of bowing listed in the Talmud constitutes a prohibition of adding on to the enactments of our Sages. Similarly, the Shulchan Ha’Tahor writes likewise that one should not observe these extraneous bowings; the notation there states that there is no correct source for bowing duringBarechu and it was instituted in error. Hagaon Harav Ben Zion Abba Shaul zt”l writes likewise that one should not bow duringBarechu because of the prohibition of adding onto the enactments of our Sages.

 

Hagaon Harav David Yosef Shlit”a disproves this claim of adding onto the bowings enacted by our Sages, for we find several places where we customarily bow, such as while reciting “Va’Ya’avor Hashem Al Panav” based on the opinion of the Mekubalim, although our Sages never instituted such bowings; we do not find that the Poskim were concerned about adding onto the bowings enacted by our Sages in such instances.

 

Nevertheless, Sephardic and Middle Eastern Jews have never observed the custom of bowing during Barechu and this custom should be continued and safe-guarded. Maran Rabbeinu Ovadia Yosef zt”l likewise did not bow at all during Barechu. One should therefore not bow while reciting Barechu.

May be so... Talp01

Crazy - that`s indeed the essence of the morning. However, crazy has magnitude - so it starts slowly (waking everyone up, breakfasts ect ) - and than the crazy level goes up (usually at dress up)... The peak would be trying to get everyone out the door (usually a few minutes late)... Than the crazy level goes down (a quite drive to work)

I must tell you - their English is not that great. Its highly over-estimated. I have encountered many (and I mean many) people, who`s accent was so horrible that even after a year living and working with them, I still could`nt understand them... I spent several months in London, and thought that Cockney accent is the worst... Well, I was wrong - after moving to Manchester, I have "discovered" the Mancunian accent - and let me tell you.... Its HORRIFIC !

 

Now, I mostly worked with locals (I mean Brits) - and besides the pronunciation, their grammar was pretty bad as well...
