Why can't English speakers pronounce R?
- distcs 4y agoI don't see how this is relevant or even correct. English speakers certainly can pronounce R.
- vintermann 4y agoOne sort of R, sure. But native English speakers often have trouble with the "voiced alveolar trill" R which is present in many other European languages, unless they speak one of the less common English dialects where it is used.
- Timwi 4y ago“have trouble with” is a far cry from “can't”.
- LoganDark 4y agoWhen I was younger my tongue was physically unable to produce R because it wasn't able to reach back far enough.
