    I watched this video and just about every other popular video you can imagine on learning to roll my R's, but I still couldn't do it. I practiced intermittently for a couple weeks and still couldn't do it. I started to get really discouraged until one of my friends said that rolling his R feels somewhat like a hiss. I instantly remembered this video and tried it again and it worked almost immediately. Maybe the practice made it possible the second time around. I want people that are discouraged the first time they watch this to revisit it in the future.

      ​@@240kid This tutorial taught me how to initiate the tongue vibration, but after getting a feel for it I had to learn to generate the vibration with much less air pressure and within the structure of different words. I practiced trying to generate the vibration with as little air pressure as possible (breathing in and out with more or less air), but I am not sure if that strategy is recommended or efficient. I often come across words that are difficult to pronounce because the trill sound is surrounded by vowels or consonants in a way that is somewhat distinct from words I already know.

      You are so right. I just learned to flap my tongue by making the "hocking loogie" sound and got excited, but when I try to add sound, my tongue gets firm and stops flapping. How do you go from making the tongue flap to adding sound? That is the part I can't quite complete yet.

    Great video! When I taught Spanish, there was always at least one student who couldn’t do the RR. I like how you broke it down into steps. We would practice it altogether so no one felt weird. The kids got really loud with it when they gained confidence. A favorite expression when trying it was: RRuffles have RRidges (potato chips).

    For those saying they can’t roll their “r” it’s because it takes consistent practice. I used to not be able to do it either but after a year (yes, a year) of trying over and over while learning my Spanish I am finally able to make the trill sound. And it’s still not perfect like a native Spanish speaker but it’s something. Just keep practicing and you’ll get it 👍🏻

A couple of months ago, I was able, with the help of this video, to get the first pedacitos (small pieces) of a trill. Now, after those several months of practice, I'm getting pretty good at it. It's actually happening! Words like alrededor are still difficult, but I'm now actually trilling my Rs . . . la palabra "correcto?" . . . I can trill it every time! I am super grateful for this video. Much thanks.

    Dude. This works. I have never been able to roll my r’s... which, as a singer, is a real hindrance as it’s often expected. I’ve been trying for years, I’ve asked singing teachers to help me, to no avail. I watched the first couple minutes of this video deeply sceptical that this would make any difference, but lo and behold as I practiced along it actually worked- I’m far from perfect or consistent but this is far and away the closest I’ve ever been to rolling my r’s. So grateful!

    Hello I was born in a Spanish speaking country (Dominican Republic) where my dads side of the family lives but shortly moved to North America as a baby and never learned Spanish. EVERYONE in my family can roll their rr's but me and this is the first time in 25 years that someone has broken it down and I finally feel like I can roll my rr's even just a little bit, thank you!

    I can roll my r's sometimes and sometimes I can't. Do you have any suggestions or advice on how to keep relaxed every time? It seems like the more I roll my r's the less relaxed my tongue becomes and then I can't do it again until I wait a while.

    I've been learning Spanish for a few months now and that R was beating me down!!! I've had several people try to help to no avail. Tried this and my R is rolling better than Snoop Dogg at a Weed Festival!!! Thank you!!!
    You just gained a new sub....if I can learn something I've struggled with for months in just a matter of minutes, I'm certain there's so much more to learn from you!

  • @thekiller8750
    @thekiller8750 7 років тому +18

    Thanks, man! This actually helped me, unlike the other videos I've watched on how to roll your r's. I can't do it perfectly, but I'm slowly getting there.
    The thing is, I'm not trying to learn some new language or something. My native language requires me to roll my r's & I've always been mocked for not being able to speak correctly in my own language. Soon I'll be able to, tho

    •  7 років тому +2

      M A F I A BOSS You can do it. no one ever starts off as a pro unless you're Mozart haha. keep practicing and it'll become second nature. I'm so glad that i can help. what is your native language?
      And I know how it feels to be made fun of in your own language.. That's partially why I learned Spanish. I have a slight lisp and I talk really fast in English. Spanish is way more suitable for me, so I get it. Good luck to you. I have a another "r" vs "rr" video coming out soon so be sure to subscribe. God bless.

We watched this video for 2min and 12 seconds and she was able to figure out how to roll her R and say cuatro correctly!! She is SUPER PUMPED! Thank you so much!! **disclaimer, we are an English 1st language family, but she is absolutely loving learning spanish in school and on duolingo.

    This is brilliant. I've not managed to get anywhere with much frustration watching video after video. I've never seen the hissing technique before and it got my tongue vibrating first time which is a massive step! Just now need to move my tongue in the right place for the Russian R.
    Thank you so much

  • @dwaynemott
    @dwaynemott 7 років тому +10

    Ricky. As usual, this was an excellent vid.
    One great suggestion I was given when I started to learn how to sound my erre more natively was to keep the tip of the toungue at the top of the mouth at the ridge beind the front teeth as the sound was being pronunced. Eventhough it requires more action than that to perfect the trill sound, it was very helpful remembering the tongue position when saying words containing rr.
    One request, can you create more vids for intermeidate to advanced speakers? I am impressed with your ability to speak as fluidly and rapidly as you do. At the moment I seem to be stuck between the intermediate to advanced stage.
    Last, your suggestion of pratcing trabalenguas I found very helpful in improving my diction, but I still can't seem to completely move beyond the intermediate stage. Did you run into this issue as you learned? At this moment I have been learning intensively for approx. 10 months.
    Thanks and my apologies for the long post.

    •  7 років тому

      dwaynemott never apologize for long comments lol. It's all good. and yes, I have been stuck before.. Or at least I felt stuck. Ink if you saw my video on the "Fun ways to keep learning Spanish" but that may give you done more study ideas. Other than that, You have to make sure that you are SOLID on the stuff you have already learned. If you have that squared away then you should move on to more vocabulary, and and other tenses.
      And yes I can make more videos for intermediate and advanced learners. I actually would love to do so much more, but I'm limited due to work and family. bare with me though.

    I watched probably a dozen videos now to help me roll my "erre" and it was your tip about "hocking a loogie" that helped me tense my tongue at the *back* of my mouth in the correct way. Once I felt this, it magically came out in the corrrrrrrect way!.The other videos led me to focusing too much on the tip of my tongue. Maybe it seems a bit gross but it was exactly what I was missing! Thank you so much for this.

  • @1997saltydog
    @1997saltydog 6 років тому +25

    I can make my tongue vibrate which is nice while doing the hockaloogie. Now the next step is just adding in the voice which is what I'm stuck at. I'm not sure if I'm even doing it right.

    •  6 років тому +3

      ʕ•ᴥ•ʔ when you add the voice, it's very subtle. Don't force it. The hard part is the rolling the r Lol. Glad you made it that far though.
