Chinese Practice, HSK 6 Vocabulary, Part 4

Picked up the list from https://hsk.academy/en/hsk-6-vocabulary-list .

Okay, learned possibly that while the throat is, indeed, used to make the tones of (atleast) Mandarin Chinese... There is a requirement, phonetically, of reseting the throat before going to the next morpheme/phoneme. As such, that is likely why I am correctly hearing myself doing tones improperly: the mechanisms are right yet I am not reseting my throat such that the tones come out wrong to my ears. If I can practice reseting my throat before moving onto the next phoneme/morpheme, then I should be better at my tones and, as a result, I won't be thinking "I am messing these up so badly". lol. A nice thing about going for practice of a higher difficult than one is used to: while the pronunciation is not really the problem, the problem is the continuous pronouncing of the same sounds over and over again due to the length of the list in such a manner that I am encountering new problems which I would not have encountered had I not been working with the longer list from the highest difficult level. Fun stuff! Not sure if my Chinese is truly improving in any manner BUT... I think if I end up in a Chinese speaking environment again, then I'll be more adaptable to speaking properly (or, at least, be understood with less difficulty placed onto my unfortunate listeners).
