don't roll your R's, a lot of Italians can't either, and we don't give a shit about accents as long as we can understand you, actually we love accents, keep yours.

>>71005382
Hahahahaha How The Fuck Is That A Problem Hahahahaha Nigga Just Roll Your R's Like Nigga Just Make The Sound Hahahaha

>>71005382

no, but if it makes you feel better it is the hardest thing to learn, it isnt rare for 5 year old kids to be unable to pronounce it and sending them to some kind of speech therapist.

also, there must be hundreds of videos of how to roll your rs in youtube, but mainly for people learning Spanish. Some are Teletubbies style videos for little kids.

just search how to trill your r in youtube

>roll my R's.
>Learning Italian

Are you sure you'r not trying to learn French?

Dont lose your mind over rolling your Rs. You will be understood anyway.

Learning to pronounce GL is more important I think.

Imagine you're growling like a dog but using your tongue to make r sound.

I thought it was a meme that Anglos can't roll their r's but I've never known someone beyond the age of 10 who couldn't do it. Maybe it's an American thing

>>71005382
Just keep practicing, and be thankful it's not Spanish.

Did you try getting good? Honestly if you know what the motion is meant to look like with mouth + tongue shape then just keep trying to do it, you should eventually get it

>>71011947
i honestly never met an anglo who could roll r correctly

>tfw sound like a retarded pirate when I try to roll r's

>>71012402
Give an example of a sentence where you have to roll your R's. I find French hard, but Spanish and Italian are quite easy to pronounce, from my experience.

>>71005382
eat spaghetti until you can do it

>>71014254
You don't roll your R's in French. Not anymore, anyways.

>mfw it naturally clung to me when I was 4 from watching my mom's friend show off

>>71014277
Much like you don't type ''anyway'' anyway?

>>71005382
Yea. Listen.

Gently place the tip of your tongue against your palate and then pronounce "Ferrari". Move the tip of your tongue step by step towards your upper front teeth until it sounds right. It's somewhere around at the ridge of your palate, before your front teeth.

Now, practice that very position of your tongue with different words. It must become something almost a reflex for "rolling rs".

Ferrari can't get you wrong. It's that particular Italian r sound. A soft rolling r. Single r (ricotta) is about the same as double r (Ferrari), soft r in both. The difference is simply duration.

Fleeing duration. You might want to pay attention in this bit.

>>71011947
For some reason I've never seen a Brit having a problem with what folks call "rolled r" (so a tap or a trill).

Americans on the other hand seem to have a problem with it, even though logically you would expect THEM to be better at it, with all that Mexican Spanish in their country and popular culture.

>>71014651
What? "Anyways" can be used to mean something like "at least," or "to be more specific". It's idiomatic and colloquial, but stil valid and used rather frequently.

>>71014651
Sorry you're triggered by colloquial speech

>>71014876
How do you increase duration? I can only roll my R for about 0.25-0.5 seconds

>>71015079
M8 you Decrease it from double r to single r. From ferrari to ricotta. That's your challenge.

The r doesn't ever slosh, the r is soft yet almost smooth rocky and quite dry.

Yea, English language background doesn't support this. You are genuinely facing something you have never done before.

It's your personal mission. Just listen to those words and try to reproduce them.

>Implying any Anglo can roll their Rs
Try this

People like you are the reason I'm learning italian and not French. You're both sexy, but if you learn french you have to deal with fucking french people, and they're 80% rude faggots. I have never met a single italian who isn't super kind, tolerant and down to earth. Keep it up mate.

Can I ever get it back?

It would truly be the best country if not for all the French people.

>>71015005
What's funny is we have the r flap thing in our accent (the t in water), and I think most Americans could make a trilled r sound if asked, but we have a lot of trouble using it in regular speech.

listen more of this guy, he had an awesome rolled r.

I couldn't do it properly until I was about 12.

It just comes naturally I guess.

I never understood how this could be a problem.
