![How to Roll Your R's, Step-by-Step [Spanish Pronunciation]](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/WfMadRajLPg/mqdefault.jpg)
The hardest part is finding a private place to practice these techniques 😂
Yeah I usely do it when people are sleeping😅
Imagine you're just tryna practice pronouncing غ & ق sound and someone walked in💀😭.
This is GOLDEN! I have been trying to pronounce this type of R for about 10 years, went through every resource and video out there, bought books, all for nothing. This is the first time I have pronounced it correctly. I cannot thank you enough! Your video should be the go-to resource to learn this sound, but sadly I can only give it one like.
Glad it helped! Thank you very much for your kind words.
why do I see these comments under every single video on the trilled r lol
@@jacobwerner6343 because they tried as hard as possible for a very long period to pronounce this. This feeling is only understood by one who at first cannot able to pronounce this sound.
Actually, the Dutch rolling / trilling 'r' is not the standard anymore. The Dutch in the western part of the Netherlands (and students) pronounce the 'r' as something that's hardly recognisable as an 'r' anymore. Listen to 'kinderen voor Kinderen 6 - Ochtendhumeur' here on you tube. Some Dutch find this regional 'slang' snooty. In Limburg (regional dialect) they also don't use a rolling 'r' but one that sounds German. (The Germans use a trilling 'r' but most of the time the 'r' somehow fades as for example 'mutter' which is comparable with the English 'mother'. The 'r' is actually not pronounced: Mothae'.) Example of the language in Limburg is on 'jippe vertelt - Limburgs dialect'.
Duolingo didn’t teach me how to roll my R’s so I’m here now
As Indonesian, learning /r/ like arabic is pretty easier because we pronounce the same r.
Thank you so much🔥🔥.
I am a revert to Islam and found these videos very useful to learn tajweed rules. It is very beautifully explained. Sheikh, thank you so much. May Allah SWT bless you immensely. Ameen. Jazzakum Allahu Khrian.
Tips from my learning experience :
STEP 1: First place your tongue completely touching the 'alveolar ridge' and back of the teeth then try to pronounce the sound "zzz..." With vibration like immitating the buzzing sound of bee.
(This step is to make your tongue edge relaxed and feel the vibration which helps to flapping the tongue)
STEP 2: After that immediately place only your tip of your tongue with flat tongue then try to flap the tip of the tongue only and make the sound "trrrr" like immitating roaring bike engine which helps to flap your edge of the tongue.
STEP 3: If you getting used to flapping the edge of your tongue , then proceed to make ' رَ' sound which is slightly similar when you pronounce the word 'Draw". From there try to perfect the ' رَ'sound.
Hope it helps! In shaa Allah :)
Omg! I got a trill with "car"! Not certain if it's a proper trill r but I've never been able to trill before!
Background, I'm a native English speaker with a speech impediment. Rs are one of my trouble sounds. Been looking into Rs and how to trill cause I'm interested in language creation and various sounds.
Can you explain how to spell the basic R because it feels so un-relaxing when I practice doing it
@Salt & Vinegar, you don’t have to learn how to make a basic R. Us native speakers will understand you either way.
I did it for like .005 seconds, it was so weak as well, but just knowing i can do it is a big motivation, thank you so much
Did you master it?
Did u master it?
Thank you so much for making this channel.it will be the medium to know about Arabic perfectly.
I've had questions about the tongue that seem important and only you have answered them because you acknowledge their importance and anticipate that your students do, too. You're an excellent teacher. And thorough. Thanks.
Best explanation so far, love it.
Best totorial for this EVER! I have been trying my who life and this is the first time I have ever done it thank you so much 🙏
This is the most consistent ability to trill my R since watching your video. Excellent Thank you
May Allah SWT bless this man!😊
OMG thank you so much for this video! I've been trying so hard and your visuals compared to saying that I actually have to relax the muscles helped so much!!! I could pronounce it almost immediately without a problem!
Definitely worth to share. Inn shaa Allah , I will post this on my fb. 💚
ZazakAllahu Khairan. Brother you are no less than a scientist of Arabic language. Love from India💙🇮🇳
Your delivery and content are absolutely fantastic, super useful video of outstanding quality.
Ohh vry gud video, this is the 1st channel that focuses separately in each & every letters👍🏻.
jazakum Allahu kahyran
At 13:15 smiling sooo much because I got it 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼yaay Jazak Allah khayran
Thanks for showing sounds practically
Jazakallahul Khairan brother❤️
Alhamdulillah Alhamdulillah.
Allah has shown me the way how to pronounce ر properly. Thank you sooo... much sheikh for your teaching. May Allah increase your knowledge and grant you jannathul firdous. Ameen ya Rabbal Alameen.
Thank you! This was very helpful!
JazakALLAHU khair
Very useful and new…Thanks.
Subhaana Allah! Just seen this video after searching for a technique for a long time! Jazaak’Allaahu khaira brother 🎉
Such a good teacher u r
excellent way to teach
thank you ya ustaz , just relised im a visual learner jzkk
Your technique have definitely worked thanks
Thank you so much!! I can speak RR like rrr.. but have difficulty with the arabic hard Dah.. ur technique for visual learners is very helpful for me. and the preceding explanation is good when I reflect on how correct I am getting it. Thank u for explaining so well the hardest part of the language.. :) Shukran!!
شكرا
جزاك الله خيرا
Starting with noon helps me to make a small trill best. Thank u
So I’ve been able to teach myself how to do the trill, the trouble I’m having is incorporating it into the words. It’s like my tongue goes tense. But the tip you gave of keeping the back of your tongue stiff to support the relaxed tip is definitely helping I think. Just gotta keep practicing.
where did you get all this information? This video answers every question so eloquently and breaks it perfectly down. Subhanallah, I would like to know where you get your knowledge from
Like you recite the Qur'an :)
I always thought that the Arabic r was like the English r, but I just learned it's like our Spanish r. Thanks so much.
🤩 amazing
this is the best video i have watched on this! getting less bad with practice :) thank you so much
So helpful
Jazakallah khair
JazzakAllahu khairan brother you don’t how happy I am right now
As a german I always struggled with those trilling Rs. Great Video, i got some good sounding Rs out.
Thank U so Much!!!!
Thank you soooooooo much!!!!! MashAllah❤
ممتاز 😍
I thought its impossible as my mouth shape on the roof is slightly awkward shape. but I think its working. thank you so much.
As a Bangladeshi, i think it's quite easier for me to pronounce the letter "ر" because in bangla, we have 3 different letters to pronounce "R". One is like the arabic ر, another is more like the english R. The video was helpful tho, now i can differentiate quite much, alhamdu lillah,
jazaakallah khayran
ٱلسَّلَامُ عَلَيْكُمْ
i am also bangladeshi and i'm trying to understand this pronunciation, can you please tell me the bangla words similar to the pronunciation of the R? kon kon shobdo gulo te emon bhabe r ta bola hoy?
I am a Pakistani and do not know Bengali but I found this online: র like in বিরাম, However, be careful not to pronounce it like in Eastern dialects of Bengali as that is similar to the English r.@@tabiyakarim2842
Omg i tried to force the flap and my upper lip started dancing 😂😂😂😂 i have a short tongue, it's been a struggle to pronounce raa. InsyaAllah i will practice using your techniques. Jazakallahu khairan brother!!
Despite the fact that this sound is present in my native language, I never managed to produce it. Heck, I've learned those arabic pharyngeals relatively easily, but this alveolar trill is beyond me. I produce r kinda like L, but with a flap. Generally, the "center of gravity" when I'm speaking is on the palate and glottis
The fa trick is great 👍😃 I will practice
MasyaAllah....tq for making this tutorial video. It does help me ( non- arab speaker ) to pronounce the letter ر correctly. You got a new sub here👍.
Lololol literally my problem was solved @1:03 thank you 🙏🏽
i work with some palestinian brothers and sisters, and while trying to learn arabic, i found myself unintentionally implementing sounds from arabic when i am speaking english. i always felt bad about doing it as it made me feel like i was trying to mimic their pronunciation of the english word, but now that you have instructed us to do this with ر, i realize that my brain was just getting used to the sounds i was hearing and learning around me, thus helping me to learn the correct pronunciation. love this series brother, may Allah swt bless you for your kind efforts!
Good
جزاك الله خيرا
Hi bro, I love the video and it has really motivated me. Quick question, how do you pronounce the r without the trill?
Like when you are car without the troll, where is your tongue position?
You contradict many other videos, but I think this is the best I've watched so far. Still doesn't work for me though, I have tried this for 20 years with zero success. It only makes me dizzy, but the tip of my tongue won't move. Can't whistle on my fingers either btw. I wonder why some languages have to have sounds that not even all native speakers can produce. :(
Masha Allah. Really in this channel only many tricks and practices to get a correct pronunciation. Alhamdulillah. Thanks for sharing your knowledge with us for the sake of Allah.
Jazakallah khair.
This brother is a genius. Allah bless you.
Lol I'm just a regular white girl who was a weird child and made this sound for fun 😝 I can also fold my tongue into every shape, clover, roll, taco 🤪 so language enunciations come way for me.
I've always had a specifically hard time with the alveolar trill, which is odd because I can already trill anywhere in my mouth but at the alveolar.
I am able to rear trill, middle tongue trill and tongue tip trill on the roof of my mouth but as i move the tip of my tongue forward towards the alveolar the sound breaks and becomes an ssssssh sound, any suggestions for what I and probably many others might be doing wrong?
There are indeed many types of trills, and even more variations of /r/ than I can count. It is like I always say, a matter of training the tongue muscle. This is where I would start if I were you; also try out the tongue training or the force-a-trill technique.. and most importantly start by applying it on familiar words from your mother tongue.
If you feel comfortable making a short vid on how your articulators move when trying it out, then maybe I can tailor a piece of advice for you. And remember this process can take some time till you get the hang of it.
the 3rd method works on me well!!!! I´ve got a bit of tongue vibration at 30 years since my first try. Love you^^ though it works only when I see your face, so I will have to carry your image with me for sometime ^^

Jazakum Allahu khairan sister, I strongly advise watching this ua-cam.com/video/ObYKEtceQbU/v-deo.html For more detailed explanation on the Quranic 'R'
Thanks, sir 🇧🇩🇧🇩🇧🇩
I was born in Switzerland and my dad is algerian. He never really got to teach me proper arabic, but i am now. Im doing just fine with all the other letters pronunciation. But i struggle with this stupid r
Sheikh could you please explain how to pronounce letter و
I found none of your vedios explaining و
جزاكم الله خيرا كثيرا
This one’s not easy😳
I can make a trilled r-sound with my tongue flat on the bottom of my mouth, and I can move my tongue around and make pretty much any sound that requires the tongue to move, including putting the tip of my tongue against the ridge, which changes the sound, but it's never the tip of my tongue that's vibrating, and people say I'm doing it wrong. I'm feeling pretty helpless.
yea the R isn’t gonna be proper. when you make R sound with your tongue flat down then you’re pronouncing it with your throat.
Assalamu Alaikum. Do you think it is the same R as in Russian? Like somewhat resembling some sort of a motor machine sound or something lol. But the thing is, that one would do A LOT of movement. It’s so weird how many different R sounds there can be lol
Wa alikom asslam,
Yes, I think they are very similar. The Russian R however has too much trilling compared to the Arabic one, but it is definitely a good place to start.
Asslamo alikom
I speak Spanish and English so I am used to this sound
I've watched so many of these videos and it almost seems impossible to get my tongue to emit this sound. I will pay you if you can teach me how to make this possible
I am literally moved to know that many people can't pronounce this sound which seems like an obvious one to me😳 I had to learn the english r actually...
As salaamualaikum
Ok. I really am glad you have thought of so many techniques
Nevertheless. It is still like training for the Tour de France.
Lol
Jazak Allah khair. I won’t give up bithnillah
waalaikumsalam warahmatullahi wabarakatuh
Jazkallhiren
A rolled R also exists in the Southland, New Zealand dialect, probably by way of Scotland.
Well... I can't even manage the 'forced' trill...... soooo, at 40 i'm about ready to give up for life. Nice video and useful.... but not for me, I fear I'm a lost cause
Wow, thank you very much! Your teaching is magical!
I've been practising this sound for a long time, and I managed it halfway just seeing your video!
The word "halfway" means I now can really do the VIBRATION of the tongue, but the vibration is smaller ones - like Turkic languages - not large ones in Arabic!
However, I'm still super excited about my progress!
I've been following the tips in this video in just ten minutes, but the progress has been significantly greater than 3 months of previous practising!
jazakAllah khairan for this video.. I wanted to know how to make the 'ra' heavy and light?
Asslamo alikom,
Then you can check this lesson.
@@Arabic101 walikum assalam brother.
JazakAllah khairan fro your reply.
But which lesson are you referring to?
@@mush22178 Subhan Allah, it seems that UA-cam removed the link, here's the link again, hope it works this time: ua-cam.com/video/PCy_lIAw-RQ/v-deo.html
I will keep trying...hopefully it will work someday 😣
Whenever i try to vibrate my r my tongue comes out of my mouth to vibrate..and the vibrations are more like drrr and trrrr..can you please tell what i am doing wrong which makes my tongue come in front when i blow air to vibrate it..when i shoot a video of myself it was like my tongue is vibrating in the middle of my lips rather than vibrating in the back of my mouth..i try hard to keep it back but whenever i blow air my tongue stucks out
Alhamdulillah after a lot of practice I can flap my tongue for several minutes but can you give me tips to now use my voice at the same time to produce r?
I have problems with it, especially when using ر with shadda (doubled ر). Ar rahman - the ر here sounds more like english r or an w. I wish i could flapping it but it just doesnt work....what should i do? Somebody who get it through trainin
السلام عليكم
May Allah reward you and increase you in your knowledge. I hope you accept this critique. The Arabic “ر” does not flap with air. Every Tajweed rule tells you what to do, expect one rule called “تكرير” which specifically tells you not to “roll” or “flap” the ر. Also in your ads you have women who are half naked working out. It would be best if you changed these ads. جزاك الله خيرا.
If you see Dr Aymen Rushdi Swayd, he explains this the best. He’s on UA-cam and has the book that’s in both English and Arabic titled “تجود المصور” (Tajweed with pictures)
Wa alikom asslam brother/ sister,
Please let me know which ad that is so that I can block it.
Thanks for your feedback.
You cannot pronounce ر without تكرير .. simply because flapping is an inherent, indispensable property of the Arabic ر. Saying you should pronounce ر without flapping is like saying you should pronounce the م without letting your lips touch!! Exaggerating in تكرير however is wrong. If you want to learn more on how to pronounce ر while reciting the Holy Quran, please check out this video: ua-cam.com/video/-Uc5vkrTYnU/v-deo.html
Asslamo alikom
@@Arabic101 Thank you for responding brother. The ad was a workout one, not sure exactly I wasn’t trying to look lol. Here is the video of Dr Aymen, he is the top Tajweed scholar alive now. ua-cam.com/video/ycAkCZjTXc4/v-deo.html
@@ahlal-quran7127 Dr. Ayman is definitely the master of masters, no question about it. But he is saying exactly what I am saying: في اللام والراء بتكرير جعل وللتفشي الشين ضـاداً استطـل
Which translates into: laam and raa are MADE with تكرير which is flapping.
Further on the slide he was showing:
التكرير
هو ارتعاد اللسان بالراء ارتعادا خفيفا ، و ليحذر القارئ من المبالغة في التكرير
Which translates: takreer is the flapping of the tongue when pronouncing the raa, and the reciter should be careful not to exaggerate in flapping the tongue.
Which is what I said, Alhamdulilah ...
Asslamo alikom

MasyaAllah..here in the Malay archipalago many Muslims recite quran the way it should be.Mostly with qiraat wasyh(sp)..but lack of knowledge what has been read.So the task now is to teach and learn quranic arabic with their right translations/meanings..and believe me it is not that easy.May Allah leads and shines us all our way to jannah.
Alhamdulillah we have a great Muallim here to help us.May Allah rewards him with Janatul firdausi(p/s fir not the English Fir..but more like field. Pardon me for lack of lingo skill
No success yet with the trilled R, but this was a good explanation with some different things to try that the other videos I have watched don't have. Thanks!
One thing that helps is to part from the sound "t", because it places the tong at the right place. Repeat t-rrr, t-rrr, t-rrr many times. The t has no vowel sound, but you can put a schwa if makes it easier.
When I am pronouncing and I place my finger on my throat the fruit is shaking show is it ok well while pronouncing rrr?
No pronouncing the r has nothing to do with your throat or your vocal cords.
Hello your video was brilliant about pronouncing arabic raa but i still can't trill my r whilst my tongue is touching the gums , for some reason I can only trill from my throat and i was wondering if you could help
Pronouncing R from the throat will be like the French, Dutch or German /r/ .. that's a completely different sound, and it is one that is not used in Arabic at all.
Your tip of the tongue should not actually be pressing, but rather loosely touching the alveolar ridge, so that air can push the tongue and pass through, creating the flapping and this the sound.
Absolutely hard for Japanese mother tougue. We only have such rigid sound with minimum mouth movements. I can't even flap my lips...
And the sound when flapping seems a bit like a "trr" rather than a "r". It's difficult for me to use it in a word.
This is actually a Great start!!! This IS how you should learn it. Gradually. Once you have the "trrr" hold onto that and start practicing words from your mother tongue that have this combination. Example, say "TRRRee" , "TRRRAIN" and so on, till you feel you got hold of this combination. and step by step, you'll be able to separate them from one another.
Never forget that you tongue is a muscle. When you go to the gym, are you going for that 100 lbs dumbbell first thing? Of course not. you should train that muscle step by step. So be patient, and keep doing your best, and I'll try to guide you along the way as much as I can in shaa Allah.
@@Arabic101 understood. I'll try it. Thanks.
@@welfare_lab5360 ,ASSALAAMOU ALAYKOUM, cest facil .je peux vous aider.Il a raison..He is alright.
Ooh ok keep your tongue flat relax then above the upper gum higher at the ridge ,there slightly make the flap by keeping your lips in an oval shape ,say rat ,roll,rest.Ok now as french speaker keep your throat tide ,because it is the place oh ghayn.R is tip of tongue and top back gum.Ghayn is shiver or gargle the upper throat..Both of these letters you hold the air making mouth full except riz in french or je ris in french it is light with lips open and flat.
Asalaam aleykum. JazakAllah for this video. 🤲🏽. When I try to trill the 'r' it seems that only one side of my tongue (the left side) is flapping or trilling. Is that odd? 🤔
Wa alikom asslam,
Yes. That is not how it's supposed to be. The tip of the tongue should be flapping, not the side. I am not sure how that can happen, but that is not the way to go.
Asslamo alikom
Assalamu’alaikum
Does the tip of your tongue need to be just where your teeth ends and the ridge begins? I tried to do rrrr sound but my tongue ends up going a bit further back so the tip of my tongue is a bit higher than the ridge. Please advise...
Wa alikom asslam,
The alveolar ridge area is not exactly where your teeth end .. you need to go a little bit further back with the tip of the tongue and there you should be looking for the sweet spot where your tongue will flap.
REMEMEBER: your tongue should NOT be shooting at that spot all tensed up, it must be relaxed and in a flat position for it to start flapping.
Keep trying and in shaa Allah you'll get there, and if you have further questions let me know.
@@Arabic101 I still don't understand how to relax when putting the tongue at a high position..
SWEEEEEEEEDISH
I have a question, what if your back teeth and side teeth are touching the tounge? Im concerned incase this is why i cant do it
I have been using the wrong articulation point but whoever I read to doesn’t correct it I have been vibrating the back of my tongue to do it while it is not in touching the alveolar ridge am I doing it correct
With the back of your tongue, there is no way that you are making an Arabic /r/ .. It could however be "similar" but if you are looking to perfect your /r/ you should consider trilling with the front half of your tongue.
@@Arabic101 ok thanks :D
I able to trill but am not able pronounce the Tap r . And when I pronounce the tapped r it sounds like a mixed R and D sounds. Rather than R it sounds more like D.
It would easier for me to tailor some advice if you recorded your voiced, or better showed your mouth movement. You can send that to me through facebook or whichever way you want.
Good luck.
I am a native punjabi. Almost all of the indian languages have this trill R and is an obvious sound. We have to work around with english /r/😂😂 Infact, most of thr people use trill R while spreaking english...
Take perro. Where is my tongue for the p? If I say just p, the tip is downward. So, then, after the p, does the tongue tip immediately flip to the the alveolar ridge? For rr, is my tongue tip already at the ridge for the initial very beginning vowel sound of rr? Don't you have to have some "plosive" of air to initiate the tongue vibration? How do I generate the air column needed to vibrate the tongue for rr? There's no plosive. Is it a vowel grunt? Upside down e? How many times does the tongue tip vibrate against the ridge for each rr sound? I remember my old Spanish teacher in HS back in late 50's rolling an rr sound for about 15 seconds, just for a demonstration. My 84 year old brother can make his tongue sound like a tommy gun, dit, dit, dit, dit very fast. So can my ex-wife. I can make dit,dit, dit, but not fast and my tongue has to do it. Not an air column, if you know what I mean. I've been trying on and off for a year or more. Seems to be getting better, but I'm still not sure I'm on the right track.
