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.
POV: This is your fifteenth video you’ve watched to learn this, and in the comments of every one of the videos people are saying “I couldn’t get it until this video, thank you!!”
This didn't work for me at first.. but a few weeks later while driving I thought about it, tried it again, and IF MY GOD IT WORKED!!! I am still AWFUL at it and can only make the sound like 1-2% of the time, however I DID IT. for the first time in my whole life. Wow!! Don't give up guys. Like I said it only clicked for me randomly a few weeks after watching this video. Shout out to the creator, THANK YOU SO MUCH!

It takes practice for sure. Proud of you for sticking to it!
Hey i was able to do it. The problem is im only able to do it like 3/5 times as sometimes the air doesn't make my tongue vibrate or it kinda misses it. Will practice over time make it easier and take less effort to do?
I swear, once you get the vibration going you’re all excited and everything THEN you have to add the voice and omg that’s just a whole thing on it’s own 😭
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.
I've been sitting at my desk for like 30 minutes watching videos on how to trill my r's for spanish class and this is the first one I've had any kind of result with.

Dale. now you just have to keep practicing until it's consistent. You got this!
@ I’ve been here for like 20 minutes and was about to leave and then saw your other comment saying don’t give up try again and believe it or not the first time I did I got the vibration done. I’ve been sitting here just so happy and doing this. Yet now I have to face the reality that I can not add voice onto it. Do you have any help for me?
@@pawelpow I've been here for 3 months! I seriously think it's impossible!

WAIT!! Before you give up and say that you can't do it, why don't you try again?! You can do it! EXPERIMENT with your tongue positioning, and your breath.
I'm 26, been speaking spanish my whole life. Could never roll my r's until this video. Still not perfect, but making progress. Thank you!!!!! I was convinced I was someone who would never do it!
4 роки тому+2
Whaaa?! Wow I'm so glad to have helped you. Keep practicing and feel free to share the video with others who may have found themselves in the same boat.
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 👍🏻
So I can't tell you how many "Roll Your R's" videos I've watched trying to re-learn this and this by far has been the best advice that I've come across!! Thank you 😊
7 років тому+5
Woooo! I love hearing that! Glad I could help! Feel free to share it with others that you think may benefit from it. Blessings!
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).
GUYS I GOT IT!!!! i’ve been trying for about a month now and keep coming back to this video and i finally got it!!! i need to work on the sound more but i’m almost there!!! there’s hope guys i promise
I am Hispanic, and I couldn’t roll my RR’s until tonight. I’m in tears of joy, so many UA-cam videos I’ve watched.. it felt like I would be searching forever. You helped me finally get my RR and now all I need to do is practice practice. Thank you, I will sub! Gracias amigo mío.
The "huck a loogie" thing helped me so much!!! I've finally realised my tongue was too far back and since this video I've now been able to get started with the R sound with my tongue in the right spot. I still need some practise to perfect it but I'm so excited!
I've been trying to do this for 5 years......and now I find it's as easy as hocking a 'luggee' Dude....you're a genius! Thanks a million...my Romanian teacher will be so impressed!
FINALLY, after watching probably 20 videos about how to trill my Rs, I found one that works. 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 I seriously love you. I've been trying to make that sound for 10 hours now, its 3 am and I was freaking out. But I refused to believe I couldn't do it and there you arrrre. Still have to practice a lot but dude I love you
I been trying many of the other sites techniques. Yours is the most effective.. I am a 68 year old Hispanic born in Philadelphia who never learned to speak the language. I am now taking college courses to speak the Spanish. Great job..
I've been trying to do this for so long and thought i'd never be able to. Thanks to you, in less than 6 minutes, I was able to do it for the first time. Thank you so much for making this video. You're amazing.
This is the 3rd "R trill" video I've tried and it works! The way you explained it makes so much more since. I'm still not perfect, but my R's are trilling!!
I’ve been sat here like an idiot doing all these exercises for about 30 mins and iVE FINALLY GOT IT!! It’s still not perfect but it’s a start. thank you so much! Your videos have been really helpful
First time rolling my r's thank you so much for easy steps. Was not expected it to work and it surprised me when I set everything up and did it that I started doing the trill. Now with a little more work I can use it in speaking. Really thanks a million so much easier than anything else I've heard or seen.
Ricky, I just watched 7 to 10 videos on how to roll R's. Your demonstration was the BEST by far!! I got it right away and will continue to practice. Thank you again👍🏾
my 6 year old has been struggling with rolling her tongue, and as such couldn't pronounce certain spanish words correctly and it was making her frustrated. 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.
I read so many comment on different videos saying” I’ve watched so many videos but this is the one that works for me.” Well this video is that for me. It works! Thanks!
You're a legend!!! I've been attempting to trill my r's for a month, relentlessly! This video finally got me there! it's fairly pathetic sounding at this point but I'm stoked! Thank you!
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!
THANKS SO MUCH! This video has gotten me the closest I've ever been to being able roll my R's. I was so happy, grinning, smiling, laughing. Changing the pitch and volume, sounding like Homer Simpson. Anyways when it comes to trying to quickly make the noise in a word, I can't yet. Takes me like a good second for my tongue to find it's spot
I too have watched at least15 to 20 people with the HOW ANSWER and only your procedure created results. Is it perfect? No, is it a start. Yes it is! thank you
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!
Amazing technique that I’ve never tried before, after an hour or two of practicing I can roll the tongue at will. Still finding words a little tricky but I feel that will come soon enough, any tips ☺️
DUDE i have been trying for so long but after two minutes of this video i was rolling my r's. I've always felt discouraged learning spanish because i couldn't do it before, but this is so cool! thank you so much
Owww los amo a todos, queriendo hablar español con todo y la R. Yo quiero aprender inglés, soy mexicana y me falta perfeccionar mi inglés. Qué gran maestro tienen!
AY DIOS MÍO HERMANO! you literally saved my Spanish. I’ve been on and off learning for a year (Rosetta Stone, duolingo, my ex and her family speak Spanish, my coworkers speak Spanish and a lot of our customers speak Spanish) and the only challenge I haven’t been able to overcome has been trilling the r’s! Muchas gracias! eres el mejor!
Omg this has helped me so much! I’m still not fully there and have to practice to make it more natural, but the explanation helped me better understand how the trilling process works and I’m so excited bc my rolled r’s are sounding so much better! Thank you!! ❤️
OMG I FINALLY GOT IT! I NEVER LEARNED THE RIGHT WAY BUT I WANT TO BE A VOICE ACTOR SO THIS WAS A MUST! And upon me saying "How could you do this to me Romeo?" at school (mocking soap operas) I accidentally did it right and I BUMPED UP my practicing routine, and I finally got it! It's been so cringy hacking up loogies every night but tis' the cost of practice! Guys the hocking method seems better to in my opinion! Like he says: just get your tongue to wiggle, and slowly move that sensation to the tip of your tongue. Keep trying! I'm finally getting it! Thank you SOOOOO much! If I'm on a public interview someday for being part of a cool show, I'm bringing you up in a story of how I got my awesome Russian accent down!
@@solaris3831 The fact that you're putting in effort to learn how to roll your r's makes me so proud of you and I know you can do it. As a wise Naruto icon once said to me, "You'll pull through - chin up, chief."
Omggggggg I’ve never in my life been able to roll my tongue until watching and practicing this video you have no idea how happy you just made me this makes the biggest difference thank you so much!!
I’m sure you probably won’t see this, but this is THE video that worked for me. I legit thought i would never be able to do this. Took some practice, and i still have work to improve but this got me started
2 роки тому+1
I see everything 👀. So glad to be able to help! Keep practicing.
I watched this video at one month learning Spanish gave me an idea of where to go re watching this at 4 months and im getting close to perfecting cant wait to watch this again at the year mark.
he has DONE IT I only did it for a half second and I can't replicate it but I have rolled an r and have the strength to continue practice thank you my friend
Hi bro, I've never been one to leave comments on UA-cam videos, but I just want to say thank you.As with many other Spanish-as-a-second-language learners, I've spent many years trying to learn the Spanish "rr" sound and have watched countless video tutorials in the process, but to no avail. Today, without any expectations as usual and believing that I am biologically incapable of making the "rr" sound, I stumbled upon your video and followed your "hock a loogie" method, and it freaking WORKED!!!!!!!!! Now I'm even more pumped to continue my quest for mastery of the glorious Spanish language. For those who are still struggling, here's my road to success: Step 1: Follow the "hock-a-loogie" method as described in the video. I felt my tongue vibrating a little, but with low consistency and strength. THEN THE MAGIC HAPPENED. Step 2: I added sounds/tones to it while doing the same thing. This time, the consistency and strength of my "rr" sound improved tremendously. Now I'm gonna try incorporating this method into pronouncing real Spanish words. After all, it is what this skill is really meant for. Once again, thank you bro for changing my life in such a SHORT, SUCCINCT and EFFECTIVE video (unlike most other tutorials on UA-cam which are 10+ minutes long). Thank you! P.S. I am an avid language learner from Hong Kong. Your video, I believe, has changed lives of many whose first language is an Asian language (e.g. Chinese, Japanese, Korean, etc.) whose pronunciation bears little to no resemblance to the Spanish "rr" sound.
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.
Dios mío. After years of embarrassment every time I had to say carro or perro, and many other videos on how to do this it’s finally working. Need to practice it more, but this video helped the most.
I've been trying to understand how to roll the 2 rr's like in Carro for a very long time now and this video just taught me in 6mins and 44secs. You're good
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.
Brother here I'll leave you a tongue twister, That the teachers they gave us at school in Cuba to pronounce the R correctly, R con R cigarro, R con R carrier rapido pasan los carros por la linia del ferro carril

Luciano Montana Montana haha this one is very common. I actually did this one in my tongue twister video from last year. Thanks for sharing!
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.

Check out your tongue string. If it's too short your tongue won't be able to make that sound. It can be corrected with minor surgery.

Anyways when it comes to trying to quickly make the noise in a word, I can't yet. Takes me like a good second for my tongue to find it's spot
I too have watched at least15 to 20 people with the HOW ANSWER and only your procedure created results. Is it perfect? No, is it a start. Yes it is! thank you
I'm so light headed from doing this I feel like i'm going to pass out.
The best video. Since you broke it down before introducing the tone I was able to do it.
ALL MY LIFE I COULDN'T DO IT AND WAS A SHAME TO MY FAMILY. I CAN DO IT NOW OMG RRRRRRRRRRR
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!
Amazing technique that I’ve never tried before, after an hour or two of practicing I can roll the tongue at will. Still finding words a little tricky but I feel that will come soon enough, any tips ☺️
DUDE i have been trying for so long but after two minutes of this video i was rolling my r's. I've always felt discouraged learning spanish because i couldn't do it before, but this is so cool! thank you so much
Owww los amo a todos, queriendo hablar español con todo y la R. Yo quiero aprender inglés, soy mexicana y me falta perfeccionar mi inglés. Qué gran maestro tienen!
I must have watched a dozen videos on how to trill my r's. Everyone is different but this is the only one that worked for me. Amazing.
Thisjis the closest I’ve ever gotten. Perfectly explained and demonstrated! Thank you!
AY DIOS MÍO HERMANO! you literally saved my Spanish. I’ve been on and off learning for a year (Rosetta Stone, duolingo, my ex and her family speak Spanish, my coworkers speak Spanish and a lot of our customers speak Spanish) and the only challenge I haven’t been able to overcome has been trilling the r’s! Muchas gracias! eres el mejor!
Omg this has helped me so much! I’m still not fully there and have to practice to make it more natural, but the explanation helped me better understand how the trilling process works and I’m so excited bc my rolled r’s are sounding so much better! Thank you!! ❤️
OMG I FINALLY GOT IT! I NEVER LEARNED THE RIGHT WAY BUT I WANT TO BE A VOICE ACTOR SO THIS WAS A MUST! And upon me saying "How could you do this to me Romeo?" at school (mocking soap operas) I accidentally did it right and I BUMPED UP my practicing routine, and I finally got it! It's been so cringy hacking up loogies every night but tis' the cost of practice! Guys the hocking method seems better to in my opinion! Like he says: just get your tongue to wiggle, and slowly move that sensation to the tip of your tongue. Keep trying! I'm finally getting it! Thank you SOOOOO much! If I'm on a public interview someday for being part of a cool show, I'm bringing you up in a story of how I got my awesome Russian accent down!
This helped SO freaking much. I was actually trying to say carro, but couldn't roll the r😂 and after this video, I can do it way better
The hocking a lugey was really helpful! I'm getting the tongue to flutter. Not quite there yet but definite progress.
I JUST SOUND STUPID AF GOD I'M A DISAPPOINTMENT TO MY WHOLE FAMILY
you'll pull through - chin up, chief.
@@deadshotanton9407 This comment deadass made me cry thanks man I'll keep trying my hardest
@@comegetyalljuice155 Never quit ! x
@@solaris3831 The fact that you're putting in effort to learn how to roll your r's makes me so proud of you and I know you can do it. As a wise Naruto icon once said to me, "You'll pull through - chin up, chief."
How is it now???
Omggggggg I’ve never in my life been able to roll my tongue until watching and practicing this video you have no idea how happy you just made me this makes the biggest difference thank you so much!!
Is this something that everyone can actually learn 100% Because I feel like I am physically unable to do this-
Practice bro
I’m sure you probably won’t see this, but this is THE video that worked for me. I legit thought i would never be able to do this. Took some practice, and i still have work to improve but this got me started
I see everything 👀. So glad to be able to help! Keep practicing.
I ROLLED MY R'S THANKS SO MUCH YOU GOT A NEW SUB!!!
This is really helpful! I’ve taken Spanish classes before but I’ve never heard of breathing out like that while you trill. Much easier. THANK YOU!
EVERYONE IN MY FAMILY CAN DO THIS BUT ME. ALL MY FRIENDS CAN DO THIS BUT ME.
WHY.
*life* 🤦♀️🤷🏽♀️
My mom and dad can
NOT ME THO
Same-
My family literally are like your Hispanic how does your dumbass not know how to do it :( I’m a disgrace to El Salvador
I watched this video at one month learning Spanish gave me an idea of where to go re watching this at 4 months and im getting close to perfecting cant wait to watch this again at the year mark.
THANK YOUUUUU, spanish is my first language and ive never known how to roll my r's and i just did it omg ! JDLAFKDH THANKKK YOUUUU
I was learning Spanish but i couldn't roll my r's and now i can do it better than cardi b! Thank you so much!
Omg I sound like a dying chicken!! I couldn’t say okurr if my life depended on it!
SAMS
Oh my God - it works! I've have been trying to do this for YEARS! Thank you!
This was funny but it works! 😂
FoodFor Insomnia wooooo both goals reached lol.
I need a lot of help
he has DONE IT
I only did it for a half second and I can't replicate it but I have rolled an r and have the strength to continue practice
thank you my friend
my brother is shoving it in my face that he can roll his r’s and i cant :(
Hi bro,
I've never been one to leave comments on UA-cam videos, but I just want to say thank you.As with many other Spanish-as-a-second-language learners, I've spent many years trying to learn the Spanish "rr" sound and have watched countless video tutorials in the process, but to no avail. Today, without any expectations as usual and believing that I am biologically incapable of making the "rr" sound, I stumbled upon your video and followed your "hock a loogie" method, and it freaking WORKED!!!!!!!!! Now I'm even more pumped to continue my quest for mastery of the glorious Spanish language.
For those who are still struggling, here's my road to success:
Step 1: Follow the "hock-a-loogie" method as described in the video. I felt my tongue vibrating a little, but with low consistency and strength.
THEN THE MAGIC HAPPENED.
Step 2: I added sounds/tones to it while doing the same thing. This time, the consistency and strength of my "rr" sound improved tremendously.
Now I'm gonna try incorporating this method into pronouncing real Spanish words. After all, it is what this skill is really meant for.
Once again, thank you bro for changing my life in such a SHORT, SUCCINCT and EFFECTIVE video (unlike most other tutorials on UA-cam which are 10+ minutes long).
Thank you!
P.S. I am an avid language learner from Hong Kong. Your video, I believe, has changed lives of many whose first language is an Asian language (e.g. Chinese, Japanese, Korean, etc.) whose pronunciation bears little to no resemblance to the Spanish "rr" sound.
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
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.
I JUST ROLLED MY RS FOR THE FIRST TIME IN MY LIFE THANKS TO YOU!!!!! ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Cardi: Okurrrrr
Me: Okurr- *chokes*
Dios mío. After years of embarrassment every time I had to say carro or perro, and many other videos on how to do this it’s finally working. Need to practice it more, but this video helped the most.
Lmao I just figured out how to whistle unintentionally by trying to roll my r’s
I learn how to whistle while trying to pronounce B and o in French
I've been trying to understand how to roll the 2 rr's like in Carro for a very long time now and this video just taught me in 6mins and 44secs. You're good
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.
Same
Same
I can do it slightly but it feels like my throat retracted into itself.
OMG! I did it! I feel like like a little kid. I've been trying to roll my 'r's forever.
If I can beat cod waw campaign on veteran then I can do this
LOL That made my night lol.
All jokes aside though, If you really put your mind to it, you'll accomplish it.
The grenades drove me insane!
_TAKE OUT THOSE FUKIN' PT BOATS!_
Before this video I didn’t think I would EVER be able to roll my R’s but this technique changed that in like like 5 mins!!!
Thank you so much :D
It helps to use “Rico” as a practice word.
True. Any word that starts with 'r' honestly
I have been trying to learn this for a over a decade and the lugee thing has been a game changer.
Brother here I'll leave you a tongue twister, That the teachers they gave us at school in Cuba to pronounce the R correctly,
R con R cigarro, R con R carrier rapido pasan los carros por la linia del ferro carril
Luciano Montana Montana haha this one is very common. I actually did this one in my tongue twister video from last year. Thanks for sharing!
Imagínate eso existe antes de nosotros nacer, hahahahah
Luciano Montana Montana Sería muchísimo mas fácil asi lol. La R es difícil pa todo el mundo.
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.
Hey I'm a native Spanish speaker and I wasn't able to pronounce it, thanks!
