Hal notqee Jayyid?


Explanation:
Written in Arabic as: هل نطقي جيد؟

And the literal translation is: Is my pronounciation good?

This would be easier to say, compared to "How good is my pronounciation?" and should deliver the meaning just as well.

You are asking about your pronounciation, so there is nothing related to the person you ask.

Good luck!
