Carrie12345 Posted November 16, 2011 Share Posted November 16, 2011 My girls and I are working our way through Getting Started with Spanish. We love it. We use the audio clips to help our ears with pronunciation, and a crossword puzzle generator to help memorize vocab... but we sound like such gringas!!!!! I will never have a decent rolled r. I studied French and German in high school BECAUSE OF my inability to manage a decent rolled r. Has anyone found a way to overcome this embarrassing problem?

Aurelia Posted November 16, 2011 Share Posted November 16, 2011 I have difficulty rolling my Rs, also, but have gotten better after trying to visualize/pronounce it like "dthr". For example, I would think of "pero" as "pedthro" (spoken quickly). Otherwise, lots of practice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
