A-Z Tongue Twisters for Articulation!

[@teresacollinsporterfield5488]

The G's got me! I had a stroke in 2018 and I still slur a little. I did pretty good and thank you so much for doing this video. I watch you every time you come up with something new.

[@SpeechSecrets]

The G’s got me too! Thanks Teresa for the comment and for tuning in. I imagine you have come a long way since you initially had the stroke in 2018. It's comments like yours that keep me motivated to keep creating. Blessings to you this holiday season!

You're welcome 😊

This is great! It shows me, specifically, what problems I encounter when speaking freely. I've noticed them before, and I doubt this catches them all, but thanks for putting this together. C, G and P were obviously problem areas for me.

[@SpeechSecrets]

So great to hear that this helped! You’re right, it’s important to identify which sounds might be a bit tricky to articulate and to guide focused practice. Cheers Jamie!

Oh My God thanks... your channel is beneficial, when I speak I get tongue and feel a bit of pressure in my mouth I don't know how to describe it, also sometimes I mess up the e should as in ship and ee sound as in sheep.. i know how to pronounce those but when I speak I sometimes pronounce them in the wrong way, I used to think that its because English is my 2nd language but that's not the case. I don't know how to solve those... can you give me some tips, please??

[@SpeechSecrets]

It’s great that you’re noticing those patterns in your speech. You are right that the vowel pattern you mentioned is a frequent error for ESL speakers! Try to avoid saying sheet in professional settings 😜 I don't give any person specific recommendations on this channel and I don't have any existing videos on this subject, but feel free to share if you find any strategies that work for you that might help others!

@@SpeechSecrets thanks... Tongue twisters work for me I guess

[@DavidH2154]

Thank you. I should practice my articulation more often post-stroke, though I am doing very well. I noticed the grassy globes and the rabit (sic). But no matter, it was fun. And I had a benetfit being Australian - never stumble over "kangaroo"!

[@SpeechSecrets]

You’re right, those errors were definitely slips of the tongue (and keyboard)! I'm glad you're doing well with your articulation. 😊

thanks for using the six sick skunks

[@SpeechSecrets]

Yay! You noticed! That was a tricky one. It even made it in my bloopers haha.

[@jellyluz1223]

too hard :O

[@SpeechSecrets]

oh bummer Kim! which one did you get stuck on?

[@jogeshravi699]

Madam If I tired ,then automatically I can't able to speak, my voice will be lower and ,,my words will not be understand. After some time ,I can able to speak.. What should I do.my age 33

[@SpeechSecrets]

Fatigue definitely plays a role in speech intelligibility and Voice strength for many people who have a neurological injury or condition.

[@zucarih]

you said grass not glass

[@SpeechSecrets]

Caught 🫣

[@d88dkim]

Green grass instead of green glass. Also, you misspelled "rabbits".

[@SpeechSecrets]

Yup! Caught me. I didn’t even realize it when I filmed. omg rabbits! How embarrassing. Thanks for the spell check!
