Does speaking slower actually help if someone doesnt understand you?

Yes, because it separates the words. Sometimes, when learning a language while in the language you are learning, the hardest part is hearing where words are ending and new ones start. People are usually translating one word at a time as they are listening.

The Title was misleading..I didnt mean that ^^" I kind of mean just another person, both speak english..but one keeps say "huh?" or soemthing like that but dont mind that... I kind of think its funny.....Because I speak very slow...and even then..I have to repeat myself a few times

I have a really bad habit of immitating the persons accent that i am talking to. I always think if i sound like them they will understand me better...lol I know bad habit, but I master most accents b/c of that...I know some people may take offense if all of the sudden I speak in their accent.
