    Yup. I actually did so before opening the thread, because I saw the title and remembered it's supposed to be a tongue twister thing.

    Or, just do what I always do with 'r' sounds... pronounce it like a 'w'.
    Ah, just curious. I struggle with Ls, weirdly, when they're strung together. Which is a pain in the arse in Wales, considering there are names like Llewellyn, and places like Llandrindod. Typical.

    My problem is 'sh' or 'sch' or anything like that.

    I had to have this..thing put across the roof of my mouth. It's gone now, but my tongue still thinks it is there so I whistle when I speak, Haha

    I struggle with getting the "you" sound in the middle of words.
    I pronounced ambulance "amblance."

    It's who you are, baby girl.
    You see the beauty in everything and everyone no matter where you go.

    Roleplay with me.

    Enunciation. I often say something, and people think I said something totally different. I'm actually pretty lucky that way, because I once got the wrong answer to a question but the asker mistook it for the correct answer. It happens a lot.

    O.O For some reason that creeped me out. The wristwatches from Ireland have caught me in their evil grasp.

    Just say it telepathically and you'll feel better.
