Language is a wonderful thing,
It helps us talk, laugh, and sing.
But sometimes words can make us confused,
Especially when accents are diffused.

An accent is the way we say,
Words in a special kind of way.
It can be hard to understand,
Especially when it's not our land.

An idiom is an expression unique,
To a place or group we seek.
It's a saying that we might not know,
But it's okay, we'll learn and grow.

To pronounce a word can be tricky,
But with practice, it won't be icky.
We'll say it right and with a smile,
And speak with confidence all the while.

So don't be afraid to learn and explore,
Languages are there for us to adore.
With every word and every phrase,
We'll broaden our horizons in amazing ways!
