SP and SQU Drills

SP and SQU Drills

For your /p/ sound practice, please review here.

Most people usually forget that the letter /q/ is actually a combination of 3 sound in itself. you have to start with the /k/ sound, by opening your mouth and moving your tongue backwards slightly. Then purse your lips into a small circle and pull it back quickly to make a /wu/ sound. Got that? Drill time!

Squinting, he split the speaker in two.
