It now has an option to let users upload a 10-second audio clip to help others pronounce their names correctly. It is a very innovative way to increase the social relationship of LinkedIn users. It is going to definitely help people from awkward situations or unprofessional mistakes when speaking to contacts from a remote location for the first time. Facebook has a similar digital pronunciations option but its introduction in a networking site like LinkedIn will be more helpful to the professional working society.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It\u2019s very common for people to mispronounce names. Everyone must have faced this at least once in their lifetime unless they have got a popular name. Even I have heard like three to four pronunciations of my name so far!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>LinkedIn has created a new way for its users to connect with its people located anywhere across the globe. The most special thing about this feature is that it will be in our own voice. It will sound like you are introducing yourself to your online LinkedIn community in your own voice.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As of now, users can add their recording only via the <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.digitalmesh.com\/services-mobile-apps.php\" target=\"_blank\">Android and iOS Applications<\/a><strong> <\/strong>of LinkedIn.
