tr- and tw- drills

tr- and tw- drills

Hi! Haven't posted in so long, but here goes! We'll be finishing the initial consonant blends that I think should be practiced before we proceed to the final consonant blends! Shoutout to K-san for his suggestion on highlighting the words that have the sounds we should practice! I'll be editing the old links whenever I can, but I'll try to post new ones with the same format as this one as often as I used to post. Apologies and thanks!



you can review your [r] pronunciation here, and your [t] sound here.

Drill time!

[tr]                            [tw]

train                          twain
trill                           twill
tryst                          twist
trig                           twig



[tr]

1. Trap the tripping traitor and trounce him.
2. Transfer the tractor to make the trapezoid tranquil.
3. Trace the treble sound on the treble tracker.


[tw]

1. Twirling tweedy temple dancers are tired.
2. Twenty twin trout twist in midair.
3. The twelfth pair of tweezers is twinkling.





Tongue Twister

Twist the triumphant twister that trounced the twisting, traveling tracker.
If you twist the twisting twister that twisted the traveling tracker,
Then the triumphant twinkling trout of the twelve twilight tweezers
Will treat you to a twisted, twirling, tricky stick.
