Help with rs and rolled rs
I think rs and rolling rs by themselves are easy. But it's the sounds around the rs that make it hard.
For example, 'cerrar' and 'abrir' are both really hard for me to pronounce.
Is there a resource that can show me how to learn how to say these correctly?
My mouth feels weird when I try to say these. I can tell that the shapes it needs are not familiar to it.
¡Gracias!

Hola, Miguel. Un ejercicio fono-articulatorio que suelo recomendar a mis estudiantes para la doble vibrante, "rr", es colocar un lápiz debajo de la lengua y practicar ese sonido. Eso prepara la lengua para la articulación. Es el mismo ejercicio que recomiendan los foniatras a las niños nativos con dificultad para pronunciar ese sonido en español. Pero has de practicarlo repetida y sistemáticamente.
También hay juegos de palabras para practicar las erres castellanas, que seguro irán incluidos en los enlaces que te han dado los compañeros.
Si necesitas más ayuda, puedes preguntar.
Saludos
