FL and FR Drills

FL and FR drills

We've already covered the pronunciation of /f/, so just visit this link if you need to review. Also, check your /r/ and /l/ pronunciation here.

The main thing you must remember when you are making the /f/ sound is that your lips must move into that position before you move your tongue to either /l/ or /r/. That said, on to the drills!

Drills

/fl/            /fr/

fly          fry
flame     frame
fleece    freeze
flee        free



/fl/

1. I flipped the flapjacks into the flames.
2. Flee the seven flies flying after you.
3. Flowers are flooding into the flattering vases.

/fr/

1. Free fries for free taste tests.
2. Freeze the fried frame of bacon.
3. Frantic frogs froze on the road.

Tongue Twister

Few free fruit flies fly from flames.
From flames do fly few free fruit flies.
If few free fruit flies fly, 
How can we fry free fruit flies with flames?
